I fully recommend this course

I would advise anyone and everyone to do this course because it’s the doorway to experiencing so many new things. The content was spot on and the commentary on the assignments was so helpful towards bettering my marks. The tutors were very helpful and all the notes I had gone over, are the things I needed to complete my assignments, nothing was foreign at all. Also, I got enough time to rest and do my assignments as well. I didn’t feel pressured because there weren’t any deadlines like traditional schooling.

What would you improve about this program?
I wouldn’t improve anything really. It was suitable for my needs

An interesting and easy-to-follow course

It's been a pleasure to study with the TEFL Academy. Their online course was easy-to-follow which really helped me feel a sense of progression and success as I worked my way through. The course content was really interesting and gave me the confidence to really want to pursue a career in teaching English. The in class part of the course was also really good; not only did I get to meet fellow would-be teachers but the course trainer was heavily experienced. Would definitely recommend this course.

What was the most surprising thing you saw or did?
Teaching a room full of adults and having to pretend they were 8 year-olds was certainly a highlight of my course!

TEFL Academy

As I was venturing into the space of remote working, TEFL Academy presented an exciting opportunity for me. The course website was very user friendly and addressed all areas required to teach English as a foreign language. The fee paid included a classroom course, which was held over the weekend. I particularly enjoyed this as it exposed you to a "real life" setting and how to prepare for your future in teaching.
Overall the experience was fantastic and I look forward to using my new knowledge to inspire students who are eager to learn English.

If you did this all over again, what's one thing you would change?
I would complete the course as soon as possible. There is a lot of opportunity to earn money online and the sooner your receive your certificate the sooner you can teach.

The best thing I choose to do!

Hello! In December I choose to study the Level 5 TEFL course and I began with the 20hr 2 day classroom part. This was a great weekend and an opportunity to meet other people studying the course and meet an experienced TEFL teacher, this experience was invaluable and very helpful. I continued with course and units and assignments and as an English native I thought it was going to be easy but actually it is not and really made me think and I really felt I was learning all over again and testing myself. Once I and finished I really felt like I had achieved something. The course covered everything and I cannot wait to put it into practice now here in Barcelona and start teaching. I am so excited. Thank you TEFL for this course and experience.

If you did this all over again, what's one thing you would change?
I think i would choose to do it faster so that I could get teaching quicker as I am very excited now to start.

Excellent opportunity

This course is very through and gives a great overview on teaching English. It prepares you from preparing lesson to managing the classroom. I highly recommend this course to anyone who would like to start a new career in teaching English. It's well organised to learn the fundamental skills you need to start a career in teaching or go further in your current career. This course helped me more confident. During the course, I was well informed and supported by the course organizers and mentors. Thank you.

What would you improve about this program?
It is well organised but putting a forum after each unit would be a good way to check learner's a progress. This way learners can discuss their experience, ideas on the topics and so on.

An amazing course

Thank you for a wonderful, insightful course! The content was clear, user friendly, concise and very enriching. The feedback I got for my assignments were very specific and helpful. The individuals who marked it went through a lot of trouble in giving constructive feedback. Thanks to those guys and girls! I really enjoyed doing the course and remained interested and motivated throughout the whole process. I'm grateful for the opportunities that has opened up through this. Thanks for a great course!

What would you improve about this program?
I honestly can't think of anything I would improve! For my needs and what I was looking for, this course ticked all the boxes.

Combined Level 5 TEFL Course in South Africa

The result of this course is you feel ready to teach. Unfortunately, because of Covid-19, I cannot travel and use it, but I can teach online. The course is tough and goes into a lot of detail, but (even at age 54) was definitely manageable. I feel accomplished and prepared to teach. I would highly recommend The TEFL Academy for the content, customer support and affordability. If you are thinking about doing a TEFL course do not hesitate to do this one.
I look forward to when I can travel again and be able to teach all over the world.
Thank you TEFL Academy

What would you improve about this program?
I would not improve anything on this program. It covers all aspects of how to teach and what is not there as you come across any issues when teaching you will be able to get answers from the support on Instagram and FB and the internet. I was a little overwhelmed at first with the grammar, but then relaxed as any issues can be dealt with as they come up.

Amazing course! I would reccomend to anyone

This was an amazing course, simple and easy to complete. The information although at times complex was explained well and I feel I have learnt a lot and look forward to using my skills across the world and meeting new people and learning about new cultures through them. I have already recommended this course to my best friend who has started her learning and already loves it. We plan to use our qualifications to travel after university and help people from different cultures by teaching them English. I also look forward to helping asylum seekers and refugees improve their English so that they can gain refuge in the UK

What would you improve about this program?
I would include advice on language barriers and how to overcome them

Comprehensive TEFL course, highly recommended for anyone starting teaching.

This is the most comprehensive TEFL course out there. I have recently completed my level 5 (168 hours) online course. Each unit is full of valuable information and guided with further reading articles and online resources.
The course content is well laid out and presented. The assignments are challenging and require quite a bit of time and planning. Do not assume 6 month access will give you plenty of time to finish the course.
I would highly recommend this course to anyone who is starting teaching, or plans to make a career change.

TEFL review

I learned about this website from a friend. I was very surprised about all the details and the quality of each subject. The organisation was very good, when I had a question I got quickly an answer and the assignments were corrected after a few days. Maybe the greatest part about this course is that it gives the opportunity to work online from everywhere and even travel and go teach everywhere you want. I would totally recommend this for everyone. It gives many opportunities (to learn and to teach).

What would you improve about this program?
Maybe explain in a clearer way the assignments to make it understand more quickly.
