Really fun and easy

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

Informative with swift support

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.

Pros
  • Self Paced
  • Support
  • Well structured
What other participants should know
  • Online = possible feelings of loneliness so make sure to find an accountability buddy to keep you going and lots of coffee!

Very accessible platform. Easy layout with a clear overview of course progression. The learning checks were thorough and helpful. The mix is quizzes and assignments were well balanced. The course equips future teachers with many recourses for their teaching journey. I saved many resources and links which helped explain how to create engaging activities. A great start for any TEFL teacher. I’m looking forward to more courses.

Excellent course

I've chosen this course because it's good value for money in comparison to other TEFL providers. It's level 5 diploma and 3 pretty time-consuming assignments are due during the course. I'm a teacher with 2 years of experience, but I can't say they are easy to do. I felt overwhelmed at times, but I am highly motivated that's why, in the end, I finished the course with Merit. It took me about 4 month to finish. Apart from the assignments everything is perfect: support, quality of content, usefulness of it, etc.

Pros
  • Good value for money
  • Good support
  • 3 additional courses for free
What other participants should know
  • Time-consuming assignments

The TEFL Academy

My experience was incredible. If I had any questions, they were answered in a day or 2, which was great. I learned a lot and feel that the Assignments helped me understand how to build a proper lesson plan. The fact that there were 3 of them made the difference, because you would realy have to earn the certificate, which makes it really worth it to me. The content is clear and well organized, and the extra materials offered are interesting and helpful. I would definitely recommend the course to whomever wants to improve themselves as a teacher.

Pros
  • Assignments
  • Content
  • Extra Materials
What other participants should know
  • Would benefit from more tips on online teaching

Definitely worth every penny

The assignments were very challenging and that is how I immediately knew this was not some fly by night course but rather a course of quality. I also found the weekly webinars which they made available to us as part of this course to be very helpful especially in completing the assignments and just understanding the course as a whole. The webinar which definitely helped me the most would be the one which was referring to how a demo lesson and introductory video should be made, I had no idea where I would begin when it came to that obstacle.

What other participants should know
  • Having to physically do the course alone as compared to in person classes at schools etc

The TEFL Academy is a great choice! You won’t regret it!

While trying to decide on which TEFL course I should go with, I went through all the emotions; that being worried if I would make the right choice, if the course was accredited, was it a course that would be engaging an enjoyable to do and would I receive feedback or have to demonstrate my knowledge. Also was the pricing reasonable? I can genuinely say The TEFL Academy was the right choice.

You can always add top up courses with ease and also upgrade your level 3 to a level 5.

Hope this review helps!

  • Great platform
  • Engaging
  • Allot of information
What other participants should know
