my experience

My experience was beautiful .. With all the study material i was pleased to complete successfully . feedback from assignments were really helpful and chances to correct them as well are very much efficient... I appreciated the time vive which was more than enough to plan oneself and to complete. All instruction given in assignments are very much clear and the substance and notes given are helpful too.. Customer care is efficient as well as they give quality 5 star treatment by answer yo emails as soon as they come across them withing the 48 hour frame.

Pros
  • Useful resources
  • useful study materials

Excellent experience

The TEFL Academy is an excellent choice when it comes to deciding which company to do your TEFL certification with. The materials and lessons provided were informative and helped me to obtain my qualification. I have asked for assistance a few times during my course and each time I got the best help and so much information from the staff. The course was definitely challenging but in a good way. I feel like I will make a great TEFL Teacher after doing this course. The TEFL Academy is always running specials on their different courses and it is affordable for the quality received. I have received multiple job offers all thanks to the help I received from The TEFL Academy after I have completed my course.

Pros
  • Affordable

Online Level 5

The course was structured extremely well. It was easy to navigate. I love the fact that you get multiple times to redo a quiz and there are no time limits to a quiz. The uploading process was simple and quick. Instructions as to how to go about the uploading process was explained well too. It really goes in depth about class room management styles and how to approach students from various cultures. The assignments are structured reasonably and does intensify after every unit. Tutors are very responsive and there are no backlogs. Extremely user friendly and overall a 10/10 experience.

Pros
  • Online so you can work at your own pace.
  • Hands on tutors.
  • No time limit to the cause.
What other participants should know
  • You only get 6months to complete it.
  • Refund period is only 14 from purchase date.
  • Having to convert all files to pdf

Online Certificate Experience

This review will likely not be very helpful, I have only just now completed my certification. I have just applied to one of the jobs on the job board but I have secured one yet so I can not speak to my application of what I learned in the program. However, I will say I was able to complete my certificate sooner than I expected. It was well organised and I received feedback on my assignments quicker than I expected sometimes even on weekends. I could recommend this certificate to anyone who wants to learn the practical information needed for English teaching.

Pros
  • Well organised
  • Prompt communication
  • High quality content
What other participants should know
  • Varying quality of instructor feedback

Online Level 5 TEFL course

This course was one of the best I've ever had! I enjoyed it very much, even though I have to admit for me it wasn't easy, because I have no theoretical background and no experience in teaching. But I took it as a challenge and I succeeded! The course is very well designed, easy to understand, it gives a lot of useful information and materials and the feedbacks received from those evaluating the papers are useful and constructive. I learned a lot during this course and I recommend it to anyone wanting to teach English or just to develop themselves in this field.

My TEFL 5 online course experience

When I decided to enroll in the TEFL 5 online course I didn't imagine that it would be so interesting and it was a compelling experience, too. The Units were full of creative and engaging activities and they helped me a lot with the assignments later on. When it comes to the tests, they were precisely and clearly constructed and the most important things were examined. The assignments were very helpful and I think they will be very useful in every aspect of my online teaching career and I will use them in almost every class. Overall, I gained an experience and knowledge that I will convey to my future students, regardless their age and level.

Pros
  • Very useful exercises and activities
  • Creative and helpful videos
  • Assignments and lesson plans that will be used in everyday work
What other participants should know
  • Not communicating to the mentors
  • No real contact to the TEFL teachers
  • More contact to the other students

Amazing learning experience

The programme is absolutely amazing. When I took the programme I had other commitments, so I had to opt for online learning, however, the experience was just as informative and I feel it prepares you well for the working world. I would definitely recommend it to someone who does not have time to attend in-person classes, because you can create your own study timetable and you are given 6 months to complete the programme which is more than enough time. Even if you do not manage to finish within the given 6 months, you have the option to extend your enrollment by a month, or by three months.

Pros
  • flexible schedule
  • simple user interface
  • covers all aspects of teaching ESL students
What other participants should know
  • may feel a bit disconnected from the tutors

TEFL - L5 course

The entire course was well structured, easy to follow and full of important content. I went into this with a Level 3 certificate in TEFL, and wanted to gain a deeper understanding of ESL, this course definitely delivered that for me. I appreciated the constant help from TEFL Academy staff when I had questions or needed an extension.
I also really enjoyed all the helpful links and resources that were provided so that I can do more research and find useful ESL tools. Some of these resources I will continue to use long into the future
Would definitely recomend this course to anyone interested in TEFL!

Pros
  • Interesting
  • Organised
  • Challenging
What other participants should know
  • Time construct can be challenging
  • I had some issues with links, but was able to fix this
  • Not always sure what is expected from exams.
