The TEFL Academy Reviews

I believe The TEFL Academy did an amazing job with the Online Level 5 TEFL Course. I feel like the course provided excellent information to be learnt, and plenty of practice to actually internalise and understand what was being taught. This is absolutely essential for all education but particularly for online courses, which can be quite regurgitative. The TEFL Academy has designed a course that requires application and understanding, which is far more useful than parrot-learning. There is a good sense of progression through the course so you don't ever feel like you aren't moving forward; great for motivation.

Also important to mention that I think anyone who is proficient in English can excel at the course, not just those who are English first language speakers.

Overall a really great course.

I just finished my 168 level 5 Tefl course with the Tefl Academy and i am so excited for whats coming next. It was bit of a challenge especially with the last assignment, but the assistance from the tutors makes the load lighter. The course layout itself is great and easy to understand,grammar is mostly not everyone's favorite topic but the way the Tefl Academy structures their grammar topics makes the topic clear and easy to grasp and later teach someone else. Even after finished they have been so helpful with my job application, the cover letter i received is very simple and straight to the point and really a piece that will be appealing to the employer. I really recommend the TEFL Academy to everyone that wants to take up a Tefl course.

I completed the Online Level 5 TEFL Course in preparation for a job abroad, and I am so glad I chose this course! The content was challenging but never overwhelming because of the accessibility of the support staff and plethora of resources. The course as a whole was structured in a logical and appropriate way, and the information was laid out in a clear manner. The structure of the course is definitely designed in a way that optimizes student comprehension and success. I feel not only prepared going into my upcoming job but equipped to handle a wide variety of classroom scenarios--ones which I would have struggled to handle beforehand. I highly recommend this course to anyone looking to obtain their TEFL certificate because I strongly believe it is the best!

I got so much from this course and the assessment was challenging in order to bring me up to a good standard. The feedback was informative and the resources and additional information provided great additional reading. The support was great and the course content exactly right for the course. The logical steps from unit to unit was brilliantly laid out and the incontestable affirmation of learning a great way of ensuring you are on course. The assignments covered a great breadth of the teaching needed. They challenged me and were sent back in the required time with specific support in them. The level of communication and support was great and when I had an issue with my log on it was dealt with immediately and effectively. I am so pleased that I completed

This course was fun and challenging. The tutors marked assignments in a timely fashion and were very helpful in correcting mistakes and guidance. The tech support was speedy and I received my PDF certificate in a matter of days. Very impressed overall. The content was challenging and I learned a lot that I didn't know. They do provide you with job sites and boards on completion. The tutors also marked the assignments with extreme care, proving that each student is individually looked after, I was very impressed with this. The program has extra reading materials and research you can conduct throughout the course to expand your knowledge. The course is also available for review once you've completed it for 6 months so you can review your work and materials.

I found the course covered many different aspects of being a teacher from section one to section 10, I did find that from unit one to three a lot of information was provided that was common knowledge, I also note that that could be sue to a number of reasons, mainly that the course creators don't know what the education level of each student is before the course begins. I found unit 4 to be very bizarre, it was meant to be based on grammar as a whole but it only focussed on the twelve tenses. It went in-depth with the twelve tenses also. After unit four I felt like the creators seemed eager to finish the course, with each section becoming smaller and smaller than the one before it.

All in all I felt that the course was good, I just hope my certificate comes quickly so that I can move on to working

My 168 hour grade 5 course included both on-line a classroom time so it was a great way back into learning after a 30 year break. I now have, and am using, an invaluable too teaching English here in Rome. Here the minimum amount of text is 750 characters so after having said what I wished to say about the course I can tell you that I completed it mostly in my jim-jams in my bedroom here in sunny Rome and now have a great job teaching English to Italians who are mostly desperate to leave this coutry for a better life in a richer economy. While being the thirst largest economy in Europe post Brexit, it is still very poor by European standards and the younger generation just want to get out for a better future. I, however, love it here, mostly for the cliamte and sun!

I found the online Level 5 TEFL course challenging, engaging and worthwhile. The ability to study at a time and in a location to suit me was invaluable. I was able to delay the start of the course until I was able to dedicate uninterpreted time to really focus on applying myself to the course. Support from the admin team was excellent, they couldn't have been more accommodating of my request to delay the start date. Any query I raised as to course material was answered quickly via their online system, and feedback on my assignments was thorough. I found I was able to complete the course within the four to six weeks which they advised was possible if you studied full time. This meant I accessed the qualification within my required time frame.

The TEFL Academy Level 5 course was excellent. The learning material was clear and engaging, and noticeably practiced what it preached (review and revision, different kinds of exercises etc). The assignments were suitably challenging and really made you use everything you have learnt in order to create relevant teaching material. The assignment topics were interesting and varied. The support from the TEFL Academy was great, they're flexible and helpful. The in classroom days were interesting and allowed a lot of practice which definitely helped boost confidence in my teaching abilities. It's great for making connections and learning about opportunities abroad.
I've already recommended this course to others and will continue to do so! I can't wait to get out there and teach!

An awesome online educational platform that works seamlessly and effortlessly. I thoroughly wnjoyed taking this course and recommended in to anyone intending to becoming a TEFL teacher either online or wanting to travel abroad. I intend on starting to teach online and therefore open up an additional income stream. I think it would be convenient because I can take my computer with me wherever I go, and I think that it would help me to gain confidence interacting with students online initially instead of teaching in a classroom directly. I can honestly say that this course has been an enlightening experience for me and there were no negative aspects to this course. I enjoyed both the online part and the face to face part as it got us to interact with fellow students. An overall positive experience!
