Program Reviews

I had been teaching English for over a decade before I decided to get TEFL certified.
I mainly taught in the third world, and while I moved to Europe and began teaching corporate companies, I decided it was high time to get certified.
It was an exciting new journey and while I was already very familiar with a lot of the material involved, it was very refreshing and engaging.

I highly recommend this course to anyone looking to up their game in the field of teaching English as a foreign language.

For myself, I found online learning more difficult than I thought. However, due to the steps marked, I felt motivated to complete the course. Although, I had to extend due to personal reasons, which I had to pay more for, I am pleased that I have received this qualification, this is despite my age, and educational background. I am considering furthering my qualification by doing another course, maybe business English, to further help with my employment prospects. I feel this course is good for anyone who is happy to do online courses.

I was apprehensive at first having not studied in years. The course however is very impressive with a suprising amount of quality resources made available, and very good, well laid out modules. I honestly felt the hours disappear as I went through the modules and learnt a completely new way of teaching. I loved the way main teaching points were not just covered once but popped up again and again to remind you. The available support is great in case needed and you really get the feeling that they are with you all the way to get your diploma. The assignments, which I dreaded, were very well explained and the reviewers gave very good feedback on what was good and how it could be improved. Altogether a great experience and I found it really good value for a level 5 course. Very happy. Thank you TEFL Academy!

I found the online platform very easy to use and navigate. My one concern was that if my network went down, I was unable to access the course offline - so I would have to wait. When studying in South Africa, this made it pretty challenging. But overall, I found the content to be very interesting, varied and relevant. The assignments were challenging and I have already started to apply some of the teaching techniques to my current online teaching platform. I also use a few of the recommended sources and YouTube channels for content. I would definitely recommend this course to all aspiring ESL teachers.

I was lucky to have this study experience with TEFL. High academic performance, creativity, student-centered approach, different teaching techniques, professional teachers ready to help 24/7 - they are only short list of benefits for Tefl students. This list can be much longer. I've got lots of practical and teorical knowledge. Tefl helps students to see different study approach and see teaching process from a diffren perspective. Lessons were very comprehensible and I rate their moodle site 10 out of 10. If I had any questions I always got detailed answers within 24 hours. I will defenately use my knowledge in future teaching overseas. Thanks a lot for this spectacular experience.

I recently completed the TEFL Level 5 course, and it was a truly unique and rewarding experience. The TEFL Level 5 course is an excellent choice for those aiming to excel in English language teaching. It's a challenging journey, but the knowledge and skills you gain make it a valuable investment for your future. The course provided an in-depth understanding of teaching English as a foreign language. From advanced teaching methodologies to linguistics, it covers it all. If you're serious about teaching English at a high level, this course is for you.

Great introduction to TEFL. The course was delivered asynchronously online, allowing me to complete the course at my own pace whenever I had free time.
Overall a great course to give you the foundational understanding to help you teach English as a foreign language. Content was useful and assignments assisted with putting the content to use. Overall a great course to get a TEFL qualification. The course materials were helpful and easily accessible. Access to the online portal was simple. I really enjoyed the course and felt I learned a lot. The tutor and admin support were amazing. I would always get quick responses which helped me to complete my assignments on time. This is the first online course I’ve done in teaching and I could say it won’t be my last due to this positive experience! Thank you!

For me, I was looking for something to kinda do with my life. I never really gave it much thought that I could teach English and when I saw the reviews of this place from some Jen it looked fun and easy. To my surprise it was very informative and I never felt like I was confused at all when going over the lessons. They really want everyone to pass and they give great feedback on the work you put in. I honestly am so happy that I did this and can’t wait to start the next adventure of my life. Thanks

I would highly recommend doing the Online TEFL Level 5 course (168 hours) with TEFL Academy. You are able to do it at your own pace with the support of really receptive and helpful tutors, admin and technical support. I had the most generous and time sensitive support whenever I felt stuck or needed clarity on a specific activity. Rest assured that your experienced will be tailored around your needs and as a first stepping stone to your English teaching journey! If you are on the fence about doing TEFL, I'd say just go for it. We regret the things we don't do more than the things we do.

The TEFL Academy Online Level 3 course has been excellent. The
Online platform itself is easy to navigate from reading the content to the quizzes after each section. The content itself covers many helpful topics from online lessons to face to face teaching as well as reflection and grammar and is easy to understand and well explained and resources are provided as well. The admin support was effective and fast. The assignments were well structured and practical. The feedback received from the tutots was very well expressed and the points given to improve were well explained. I would definitely recommend this course.
