The TEFL Academy Reviews

In 2020 I completed this course during COVID.

The course was the most appealing to me out of all the choices.

The format of the course is great. The different sections are clearly laid out, and it's easy to follow and complete.

Each sections is well covered, and the requirements to pass are all clearly explained.

There are opportunities for further education suggested throughout the course.

I would really encourage anyone considering this course to sign up and get going! You will enjoy, and learn something!

The TEFL Academy course is professional, thorough, supportive and very accessible. The material was current and easy to negotiate in an online format, and the support was positive, constructive and timeous. I found the presentation interesting, well laid out, understandable, and broken up into digestible chunks. The units were sequenced well, and the flow of the course is good. I would recommend it to anybody wanting to receive reliable and reputable training in their quest towards a vocation in teaching English to foreign students.

I found the course to be very complete with a platform that was very easy to navigate in. The topics were not overwhelming at all, so it invited you to finish every lesson in a short period of time.
The topics thtat you have to cover are very useful to improve your teaching skills and also are very helpful to become a more organized teacher. The course also contains valuable information to improve lesson planning and how you develop in the classroom.
I feel completely satisfied with the course and I highly recommend it.

Very happy I completed this course with TEFL Academy. After looking extensively online through lots of different courses I found this one to suit my personal needs. During the course I found the content to be useful, clear and have really thorough coverage of the topics. There was support when I needed it during my assignments and the feedback was clear and helpful. I have created a folder of all of the useful links provided throughout which will be highly beneficial when teaching in future - this includes lesson plans, explanation videos, activities for the classroom and helpful tips.

The structure of the course was easy to follow, the units were well connected and very informative. I have gained a lot of knowledge about teaching English in a fun and interactive manner. The tutor's reviews of the written assignments were clear and very well explained. The assignments made me apply the information from the previous lessons, in this way everything was fixed better. I find it incredibly useful to have been given access to multiple websites throughout the course. They will definitely be valuable later.

I began this course with the intent of using the qualification to leave South Africa and nothing more. However, I was pleasantly surprised to find myself engaged by the material I was presented with. I was studying towards a Bachelor of Education a few years back but dropped out because of financial constraints. This course taught me more about language teaching than 2 years at university did. Now this is symptomatic of the failing education system within South Africa, but I feel that it also serves as a testament to the high standards that this course expects. I would highly recommend this course to anyone seeking to teach or to expand on their teaching knowledge.

The TEFL Academy's Level 5 program is absolutely outstanding! It is easy to navigate, you learn a lot, and the response times to questions are super fast! I learned so much from this course that I believe I will use throughout my career of teaching English. There were many times that I had questions about assignments that I would reach out to my tutor and the response replies were so fast. I am so thankful for its affordable rates and options in achieving the certificate both online and in person. I would recommend to anyone 10/10! Thank you TEFL Academy!!!

I have just finished my online TEFL qualification through The TEFL Academy. The course was easy to navigate and well structured with plenty of exercises and activity. You cannot move onto the next section until the previous is complete and you've passed the end of unit tests; which is really good as you build on the previous units in the next ones.

The tutors marked the assignments really quickly and the feedback from all of them was constructive, in depth and clear. There were never any problems with the online course not working.

So impressed I'm going to do a top up course with them as well.

I would definitely recommend using them if you are looking to get into TEFL teaching.

This course was a lot of fun, and although I haven’t been able to complete the workshop (thanks to Covid-19!!) I still had a good time completing the assignments and learning new skills.
There is a good range of difficulty but obviously a lot of it depends on how much people know already in terms of grammar and word forms etc. Learning how to teach students is very informative and helpful and brings up things that you wouldn’t necessarily think about before.
Although I didn’t need to, contacting for any help/issues seems very straightforward.

It is a very well structured course and the material is very relevant. The platform is easy to navigate and most of the time you get the support you need in a short time.
I have learnt a lot about teaching and teaching techniques. I am sure it will help me a lot in the process of becoming a good teacher!
All the procedures were very thoroughly explained and in case you want to learn further, a solid variety of links are provided for your own personal development.
I would recommend this course without a doubt!
