My Experience with The TEFL Academy

Great experience. The TEFL Academy made everything a lot easier for me when taking my 120hr course. The Platfrom itself was very easy to understand and navigate to everyday and week with a new lesson. The set-up and quizz taking was pretty standard and that's why i found it easy and appropriate! The TEFL Academy made me feel welcome and acomodated me at any time during and after my learning. I would defenitley reccommend The TEFL Academy to any friends or family who are looking for a way to earn some pocket money and travel overseas.

What is your advice to future travelers on this program?
Travelling can be both fun and educational, make some pocket-money while enjoying a new world of culture!
Pros
  • Can learn on your own time
  • Can take quizz and assessments multiple times to learn from mistakes
  • Presentation style was easy to understand
What other participants should know
  • Need wifi constantly
  • Can't access the content after contract is up

Level 5

I've struggled with doing online classes during my highschool because it has lots of issues and wasn't very helpful , but with Tefl i was able to learn and produce work at an amazing speed. All the content is helpful and useful and the activities are engaging and not boring. The assignments allowed me to gain insight on real classroom issues and I was able to set my assignments based on that. Every feedback from the tutors was so helpful and supportive as it helped me see where I could do better . The tutor support has to be the most helpful I've seen in an online platform as they review and give feedback on complaint within less then 24hrs. When faced with an issue in the sight, tefl provided me with more time to complete my work and this was really helpful for the duration of my course. Overall Tefl is definitely the best online institute Ive attended, from the content, work to the staff everything and everything are super helpful. Totally recommend 10/10

TEFL Lvl 5- Very Rewarding

I am extremely happy to have completed my TEFL qualification through this academy. From the beginning of the course to the final assessment, the learning experience was well structured, engaging, and highly informative.

The course content was comprehensive and easy to follow, covering both the theoretical and practical aspects of teaching English as a foreign language. I especially appreciated how the modules built on one another, giving me the confidence and knowledge needed to prepare effective lesson plans and understand modern teaching methodologies.

I also found the assignments to be meaningful and relevant, allowing me to apply what I had learned in practical ways. Completing the course has given me the confidence to begin my journey as a qualified English teacher.

I would highly recommend this academy to anyone considering a TEFL qualification. Thank you to everyone at the academy for your dedication, encouragement, and commitment to helping students succeed. I am proud to say that I am now a qualified TEFL teacher, and I look forward to beginning this exciting new chapter in my teaching career.

TEFL LEVEL 5

I always wanted to teach ENGLISH online as a side gig and while doing research on how to get started, I stumbled upon the TEFL ACADEMY. It quickly became clear that they were reputable and regarded by many to be the industry standard, safe to say that my expectations were exceeded!

I honestly had a blast doing this course. Visited many childhood memories along the way. It was quite comprehensive and I enjoyed the interactive Learning system. The assignments were challenging and very informative at the same time. The feedback from the markers were quite great and their guidance makes it virtually impossible for you NOT to pass on your subsequent attempts.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS! LITTERALLY TO ANYONE WHO WANTS TO BECOME AN TEFL TEACHER or EVEN IF YOU ARE DOING IT FOR VIBES (LOL!)

Very rewarding experience

Very well structured course presented by professional facilitators. The course covered all essential components of TEFL and more. I only had one or two issues and they were dealt with quickly and efficiently. i appreciated Frequent Test Your Knowledge activities before moving on to the next section. There is more than enough time, 6 months, to plan and access the course. For me the online option of completimg this TEFL course was an added bonus. To study at your own pace in the luxury of your home made all the difference.

If you did this all over again, what's one thing you would change?
I would definitely not stress as much over the three projects in the Level 5 course. Although the last one was quite complex and lengthy, it turned out to be quite an informative and valuable project, assessing a wide range of skills. BREATHE AND READ THE INSTRUCTIONS.
Pros
  • Online
  • More than enough time to complete the Level 5 course in
  • Valuable resources shared
What other participants should know
  • Not regarding the course, the marketing can be a bit misleading. It creates the impression that you have discovered the TEFL academy at exactly the right time with limited special offers going, only to find that there are always special offers going on.

Level 5 Online TEFL course

Amazing feedback opportunities, assignments are marked really quickly and efficiently. I did this course alongside my degree and it was really manageable - with extension opportunities if you can’t finish within the 6 months.
It also has lots of fun pieces of info and trivia as well as building up really relevant info about teaching English.
This course provides a super amazing opportunity to work abroad with lots of outreach and support. I have recommended this course to anyone who will listen.

Wonderful Course

The TEFL Academy course is a good one. It covers all aspects of teaching English to foreign students. I found the assessments enlightening; they particularly helped me understand how to plan proper classroom lessons for kids, teens and adults.
Overall, the course is well laid out and structured with lots of useful information and resources. The resources are particularly invaluable to me because they'll definitely help in the future.
I'd recommend this course to any non-teacher looking to get certified as an English teacher.

Good course

I found this course to be just as I expected. I did some research first to ensure that the qualification was properly regulated and accredited. It is!
The platform is easy to use and the content is relevant. The assignments are challenging but if you have taken in the course content then you will have no problems. I found the assignment feedback really good too as it showed me areas where I could improve.
I have just finished the course so have yet to find work but can’t fault the course at all.

Pros
  • Quick replies from tutors
  • Relevant course content
  • Constructive assignment feedback
What other participants should know
  • Could do with slightly more information on CEFR levels and exams

Very happy with company, content and student services.

I had a really great experience with this provider! The course is clear, well structured, and full of practical tips, especially for lesson planning. I loved the assignments because they help you actually practise what you learn. The final section on starting your teaching career is especially helpful, with lots of useful advice. Support is also quick and reliable. If you wish to learn deeply and in a practical way, this provider is 10 out 10. After submitting your assignments, you get results in few days. Then, they send you the digital certificate by email, accredited by QUALIFI (Ofqual regulated) and internationally recognised. I highly recommend TTA (www.theteflacademy.com).
100% right choice!

TEFL for post retiree's

The whole course was very informative. I enjoyed being able to do this at my own pace in my own space. It was helpful to be able to redo some of the knowledge based questions to have another opportunity to review. The Entrepreneur module, How to apply for TEFL positions and the Bonus AI modules was unexpected, but thoroughly enjoyable.
The IT support was helpful but I was sometimes cut off for no reason. The most stressful IT experience was when I needed to resubmit my first assignment and it took me a long to time explain to them what the actual problem was and I eventually fixed this myself.
