The TEFL Academy Reviews

This has been an incredible journey for me. When I started with the TEFL Academy I was nervous, but the course structure and the Tutors made it so much easier.

I would 100% recommend this to anyone who wants to build their teaching career. The modules were detailed and practical, I learned so much about lesson planning and grammar that I can actually use.

The Tutors are amazing-if you need help they get back to you as quickly as possible and they really care about your passing.

Overall I'm proud of what I achieved and so grateful for the experience. Thank you TEFL Academy for helping me take this step!

The course was easy to understand and access. The course was engaging and successfully kept my focus. The assignments were challenging but tested my understanding of the topics successfully.
I am very happy with how fast the assignment were marked and how helpful the advice and feedback were.

I am so excited to officially start my TEFL journey. The course gave me the necessary knowledge and confidence to start this new chapter of my life.

If you are considering a career in TEFL I would definitely recommend this course.

I had a great experience with The TEFL Academy. The course was well-structured, easy to follow, and provided me with the knowledge and confidence I needed to teach English. The assignments were challenging but helped me develop my teaching skills, and the tutor support was always helpful whenever I needed assistance. Overall, it was an excellent learning experience that prepared me for my future as an English teacher. I would highly recommend The TEFL Academy to anyone looking to earn a TEFL qualification.

I'm a translator and editor by profession. English is my native language with French and Afrikaans as my secondaries. I studied English for 2 years at university level and 12 years in primary and secondary school.

I was amazed at how much I was not taught as a native student. The depth of the TEFL course's grammar section introduced aspects of the language that I'd never been taught. I had been taught the finer aspects in my French studies.

Very humbling to find surprises and gaps in my knowledge of my native language.

Excellent course

The TEFL certification has been an incredibly rewarding journey. I started the course with no teaching experience, and at one point I was this close to giving up. At the same time, I was completing my BCom Honours degree, so balancing both commitments was challenging.

I chose to keep going, and I'm so glad I did. As I progressed through the course, I genuinely enjoyed the content. It felt like a breath of fresh air, and I discovered a real passion for teaching English.

The course was well structured, easy to follow, and full of practical activities that helped me build confidence. The tutor feedback was constructive and encouraging. I especially appreciated the recommendations on creating student-centred lessons, using concept-checking questions, designing engaging online activities, and adapting lessons to meet different learners' needs. These suggestions helped me improve my teaching skills and think more like a teacher.

The continuous support, regular updates, and encouragement from The TEFL Academy team were exceptional. I never felt alone throughout the journey.

I'm excited to explore the new opportunities this qualification will bring and look forward to beginning my TEFL teaching journey.
I would highly recommend The TEFL Academy to anyone considering a career in teaching English. Thank you for making this such a positive and inspiring learning experience.

The course is well-designed and easy to move thru. It provides strong guidance on how to construct lesson plans and they types of learning involved in acquiring English as a second language. Feedback on assignments was substantive and useful. As a mature professional, the sections on reflection were a bit too long for me, but I can see how they would benefit others. I did not find the videos on pronunciation to be very helpful, and the sections on using copyrighted material seemed perfunctory. In place of these, more on teaching English grammar could be provided. The discounted price is easy to commit to, but the regular price seems a bit inflated.

Completing my TEFL certification has been an incredibly rewarding experience and an important step in my career transition into education. As a mature student with previous experience working with children, I wanted a course that would strengthen my teaching skills and prepare me for teaching English as a foreign language.

The course was well structured, informative, and flexible enough to fit around my other commitments. I particularly appreciated the practical teaching strategies, lesson-planning guidance, and classroom management techniques, all of which increased my confidence as an educator.

Throughout the program, I gained valuable insight into creating engaging lessons and supporting learners from different cultural and linguistic backgrounds. The material was easy to follow, and the support provided made the learning process enjoyable.

Earning my TEFL qualification has opened exciting opportunities, and I am looking forward to beginning my journey as an ESL teacher abroad. I would recommend this course to anyone passionate about teaching and eager to make a positive impact in the lives of language learners.

I recently completed the TTA course and found it to be informative, engaging, and very well structured. I especially liked that it combines teaching theory with practical ideas and real-life examples that can be applied in the classroom. The videos, quizzes, and interactive activities kept me engaged throughout the course and made the learning experience enjoyable. Everything was explained clearly and presented at a comfortable pace, making it easy to build confidence as I progressed. Overall, it provides a solid foundation for anyone starting their EFL teaching journey, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone considering a career in teaching English.

I thoroughly enjoyed completing the Level 3 TEFL course. The content was well structured, engaging and provided a strong foundation in teaching English as a second language. The course helped me develop my understanding of language teaching methodologies, lesson planning and supporting learners from a range of backgrounds and abilities. Most importantly, it has enabled me to gain a recognised qualification to teach English as a second language, giving me greater confidence and opening up new professional opportunities. I would highly recommend this course to anyone considering a career in TEFL or wishing to enhance their teaching skills.

I have been looking into teaching abroad for some time and this course has been on the horizon for a while. I'm already a fully qualified Primary School teacher with QTS so probably had a head start but still found this quite challenging in places - you'll definitely have to keep on top of your grammar skills (I'm constantly reviewing tenses and still can't get it right off the top of my head!). The course is well laid out and logical with some very useful information (some of the non-TEFL videos are hilariously bad (the BBC ones I think), but useful). The assignments are significantly challenging - and rightly so for a Level 5 - I think non-teachers may find this trickier, but it's infinitely doable. Overall, a really well put together course with lots of valuable support. Enjoyed it!
