My TEFL-Level 3 course

I recently had the pleasure of taking a TEFL Level 3 course, and I must say that I was extremely satisfied with every aspect of it. From the quality of the content to the way the material was structured, everything was designed to provide a seamless and enriching learning experience. Additionally, the support I received when I needed an extension was exceptional, which further contributed to my overall positive impression. Overall, my experience with this course exceeded my expectations. The quality of the content, the well-thought-out structure, and the exceptional support all contributed to a highly satisfying learning journey.

A fantastic experience

I had a great time learning with The TEFL Academy. The course was detailed and challenging, and I received great feedback on my assignments. I steadily got through all the units and was happy to be able to go back to each section and revise for my assignments. The online course was well set up, interactive, and fun. I had a great time in the practicum and the trainer helped me feel comfortable and confident in taking part. I feel set up now to start my career as an English teacher, thank you TEFL Academy!

Great value, supportive tutors, useful assignments!

I absolutely loved this course and am excited to start using my TEFL certificate to explore ESL tutoring opportunities, both remote and overseas. The tutors were incredibly responsive, supportive, and provided valuable feedback. The assignments were practical, engaging, and helped me discover useful resources for my teaching career. This course truly boosted my confidence in lesson planning and classroom management. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to get certified and build a strong foundation in ESL teaching!

Superb Support

Thanks to the TEFL Academy for great support and to everyone who contributed to putting the course together. Would definitely recommend it to anyone that is not sure which course to take. TEFL Academy really makes it easy. They answer every question. And what is great is thr fact that they give huge support. They also provide webinars that help navigate the assignments to common questions. I loved the fact that I could study at my own pace and I seriously appreciate the fact that you get a free top up course when you purchase your course

Level 5 TEFL certificate

I found TTA to be extremely helpful, user friendly and insightful. I do appreciate all the aid, resources and activities that engage the diversity of our students. I would advise to complete assignments as you completing the units instead of completing the units first then the assignments. I like the fact that with each step there are different materials and resources that one can use be it in the classroom or online and it caters to students of all ages. The relevance and trendy topics make it so relatable to students of this day and age and teaching methods are phenomenal. I have learnt a lot and I hope this can help me achieve my goals.

If you did this all over again, what's one thing you would change?
I would complete the assignments with the flow of the units instead of completing all the units then all the assignments
Pros
  • User friendly
  • Innovative
  • Insightful

Olivia Malherbe- TEFL Level 3

I enjoyed learning how to teach online.

I have experience with teaching in person but now I feel confident to teach online as well. I found that this course showed me many new websites and materials that I can use to aid in my online teaching. I have never taught learners older than 9 years old but I am English-speaking and know how the language is structured so I am excited to share my knowledge of English with learners who are not native English speakers.

I walk away feeling excited to teach which is a feeling I haven't felt in a while.

Great experience

I majored in English at university and TEFL still taught me things I never knew about English! That was really awesome. The course is challenging and pushes you it is not an easy and quick course it takes time and effort. The videos are very helpful and they provide you with lots of tools to help you along the way. My assignments were marked efficiently which helped me move on in the course faster. I never needed to use the help tab but it was always good to be reminded that it was there if I did

What was the most nerve-racking moment and how did you overcome it?
The most nerve wrecking was the assignments as I was unfamiliar but after the first one I was more confident and i followed the instructions and used the tools they gave me.
Pros
  • Cost effective
  • Online
Cons
  • Expansion is expensive

Good

An inexpensive, comprehensive course tailored to meet the needs of both inexperienced and experienced teachers. The course was targeted at teaching online and in the classroom and gave great tips. The videos were good and gave ‘top TEFL tips’ which helped, and the lesson planning template was good.

I would say that one thing that the course lacked a little would be suggested lesson content. I know this can be hard to do as learners are often of different ages and abilities but this would have helped

I would definitely recommend this course

Perfect For Beginners

The online course provided information that I believe is very useful when beginning the TEFL journey. I learned so much and quickly finished the course in about 2-3 months. The support team was really helpful and graded my assignments according to their rubric. I thought they were going to take a week to respond, but they responded back with helpful information in a timely manner. They give great feedback on the assignments and give suggestions on what needs improvement. I would recommend this to those who want to start their TEFL journey as this course is beginner friendly.

If you did this all over again, what's one thing you would change?
I took the level 3 TEFL course. If I did this all over again, one thing I would change would be to take the level 5 course instead. I didn’t realize I would finish so quickly, so personally I could’ve done more hours.
Pros
  • Provide you with job, volunteer, and internship opportunities.
  • Offer top up courses to specialize in a particular area.
