Program Reviews

Wow! What can I say?
Challenging from the outset, this course guided an old dog like me into learning new tricks.
The knowledge reviews along the way made sure to keep me on track, engaged and motivated. The online content and platform are easy to use and full of great things. The assignments really made you think about what you need to be able to do when it comes to teaching English as a foreign language. The feedback from the assignments was quick and constructive. Would highly recommend this course.

This course really challenged me to think differently about teaching English as a foreign language. I have been teaching German as a foreign language for 5 years and this course has even helped in the way that I teach that now. I look forward to the opportunities this course will create for me and truly believe it has developed my teaching skills and outlook on teaching as a whole. I also really like that this course helps you even after you've completed the course to find jobs and update your CV/cover letter accordingly. Overall I have had a wonderful experience with this course and would definitely consider doing other courses with them in the future.

I am a Taiwanese girl living in South Africa. I took my level 5 combined course in Johannesburg. There were a few concepts in the course which I did not understand at first. However, because the content is online, we are allowed to read the text over and over again as well as ask tutors for support, thus learning becomes much easier. I attended the 10 hour classroom practice with the expectation that it would be very difficult as I have no teaching experience. However, the TEFL trainer taught in a way that made the atmosphere very relaxed. Plenty of interactive activities engaged our interest and stimulated our critical thinking as well. The training provided by the TEFL trainer was made easy and to the point so that by the end of the lesson, all of us were prepared enough to give very good presentations to the rest of the class. The TEFL level 5 combined course is one I would highly recommend to anyone who is not just looking for a teaching job, but would like to expand their horizons by experiencing new cultures and realising the potential of your students and yourself.

The TEFL Academy is a trustworthy organisation that treats its clients with care. I experienced no drawbacks while studying with TTA. Online support, career advice and guidance as well as engaging and current theoretical content has given me the confidence to apply for teaching English as a foreign language anywhere. I completed my Level-5 TEFL course while completing a final year in undergraduate studies- The TEFL Academy has a flexible study-plan that allows you to study alongside the unforeseen circumstances of life.

The course was well constructed. It contained all the necessary material and instruction to educate a participant on how to teach English as a foreign language. It was informative, challenging and now I will reap the rewards. Looking forwards to beginning my journey with my new skills and qualification.

I would recommend this course to anybody seeking the means to become equipped to teach English.

The first step is always the hardest. But once you start the course, you will be motivated to see it through.

Signing up for a programme sounds quite easy but when it comes to choosing the right academy for yourself which works covering all your aspects perfectly that too online is definitely a job. I was recommended The TEFL Academy by a fellow ESL Teacher and trust me it was the right choice. Unlike other academies which provide the courses of same niche.
The TEFL Academy got good on these points:
1) the course content is greatly made and simplified.
2) there were quiz at the end of all units and you definitely know how helpful they work with learning.
3) assignments were in between of units which was quite good because it helped with improving your learning process and tutors corrected with encouragement.
4) one of the best factors were the assignments were quite well explained on how to perform them on the website and live tutor sessions were available on youtube as well. So no need spend time understanding how to actually do this or that.
5) the student support, now be it tutor support, admin support or queries they were all answered at the top most property unlike I have seen in other online learning platforms where they take ages.
6) here comes the best part, when you are all done and have completed the course, The TEFL Academy helps you with cv to helping you find the right job for you.
Overall I had my best experience and as an alumni I will definitely RECOMMEND!
The TEFL Academy for future aspirants.

The course was highly engaging and included everything I wanted. Support was given through helpful links, instructional videos and detailed course content. It was fun and never felt boring. I was highly motivated to complete the course despite my already busy schedule. The course was challenging but not so challenging that I felt I couldn’t handle it. There was no loss of support or connection from learning online, my learning experience was just as good had I been learning in a real classroom. Furthermore, having only finished a week ago I have already been given access to so many potential jobs.

Overall my experience was really good, the work was much relatable and could navigate easy through the site. A good amount of information was provided and work covered in the course was more than enough for teaching students. The time period to complete the course was more than enough and allows you to take your time to do the work and not do everything rushed, so more content sticks with you. There was lots links and tools provided to assist with assignments and after you done the course for later use.

With all the TEFL courses online, I wasnt sure which course to take. After some research I finally opted for the TEFL Academys Level 5 online course and the results far exceeded my expectations. The course was very complete, diving into different areas which I would have never considered. The evaluations and feedback from the instructors on the homeworks proved valuable, and I feel prepared to take the leap into teaching.
I would be happy to recommend this course to anyone interested in teaching English as Second Language.

I was very impressed with how well the content was set out and taught, even though it was online. I thought that I would be difficult to teach all the information to someone doing the course online, but it was done very well and done in a way that makes it easier for the learner. The only thing that was a bit "tricky," was the navigation. The course website does not allow you to only go back one page. When you click on "back," it takes you to the main page/dashboard.
I would definitely recommend this course to anyone!
