The TEFL Academy Reviews

I truly enjoyed the Online TEFL Academy course. Now after finishing the course I feel well prepared for teaching english.
The website of the course was really easy to follow and your progress is being tracked so you know how much of the course you have left. The units are very well structured and interesting. The lessons are very understandable and fun. The provided content is diverse, you get a lot of videos, some quick quizzes and fun games to check if you understood everything and you also get reading sections.
For the assessments you get a step by step guide, so everything is made very clear and is easy to follow. After only a few days you get your results!
The online course is extremely flexible, so you can choose when and where you do your lessons and assignments. You get plenty of time to finish the course, however if you feel like you need more time, you can simply ask for more.
I would recommend The TEFL Academy to everyone that wants to have a flexible job. You can teach online, overseas, in your own country anywhere you desire.
To sum it up I had a really good experience with The TEFL Academy!

This course was great for learning how to teach the English language and work with students. I felt it provided all the information I needed through the online content and the in person class was great to put what I'd learnt into practice. With it being online it was easy to navigate the site and access support from tutors if I needed it. The assignments were well explained and I felt they helped me understand the content better. I would definitely recommend this course to other people. It's been really helpful.

I honestly did not know what to expect when enrolling in the course but now I can say it exceeded my expectations. Once I started, the tasks and materials were so engaging that I actually felt the need to access the platform every day. The course content is well organised and the assignments are carefully planned to help you put into practise all you have learned. Although I have experience in teaching, I have acquired plenty of new skills and knowledge. I simply cannot wait to start my teaching experience in another country!

Completing my level 5 qualification with the TEFL Academy was an amazing experience. From the course content to the engaging assignments, I learned so much from it. I had never thought about creating fun lesson plans before and I had no idea where to start. Thanks to TEFL Academy, the quizzes and assignments really got me thinking and the content from the course was super useful. I have so much more confidence now and I can't wait to begin my career teaching English. I would highly recommend TEFL Academy!

It was not a difficult program and it gives you all the tools you will need to learn how to teach a language to someone and it also give you a buff on your vocabulary and English usage. You do need to study on your own so it entails you to have a strong will to go through the course. When you do your assignments be sure to read through the instructions with careful understanding and do not be afraid to contact if you need any help because there are people who will assist you when you need it. In all it was a good learning experience.

I just completed the level 5 diploma (168 hours) with The TEFL Academy & I am super excited to start my teaching journey .The course on the whole was very informative & left me with knowledge that was not known to me before . The assignments were not complicated, however you have to do your research & make sure it’s from reputable websites. I would definitely recommend the TEFL Academy to anyone wanting to teach or for anyone just looking for something different . I now await my hardcopy certificate thank kickstart my teaching journey .

It took me a few extensions, but I eventually completed my TEFL course. I enjoyed the depth in which the different units were written for the student. You could read the unit parts as many times until you have fully understood. The tests at the end of every unit are insightful as this is where you get to test your knowledge. The lesson plan examples were also amazing; easy to understand and endless ideas on how you can plan your future lessons. the technical, admin and tutor support is superb, you can always follow up with a phonecall and a friendly voice is always there to solve an issues you may have. Cannot fault this course.

The TEFL Academy exceeded my expectations with regards to the TEFL Level 5 Course. I had heard of TEFL before, but hadn't ever seriously considered signing up to complete the certification. While doing my research (I wasn't sure which TEFL company to go through - there are SO many out there), I emailed The TEFL Academy asking some questions, and I was pleasantly suprised to receive a call from a lady in Europe (I live in South Africa) who was more than willing to answer my questions. The customer service really impressed me, and I am so glad I decided to do my certification through The TEFL Academy. The course was well presented, the website was easy to navigate and I found the assignments to be the perfect level of challenging. I haven't started looking for a job yet (I am also working full-time) but The TEFL Academy does have great resources and support for writing your CV and cover letter, and reputable companies looking to hire TEFL teachers. I took about six months to complete the course, but if I worked consistently on it (and didn't work full-time), I think finishing it in 1 - 2 months would be very manageable. I think that would be enough time to go through the course thoroughly and also produce assignments of a high quality. I look forward to the opportunities The TEFL Academy has given me with a certificate of a high standard!

The online TEFL course is a very good option for anyone who wants to become a certified ESL teacher but doesn't have time to attend courses in real life. The course website offers a variety of useful information and tips on teaching different age groups of students. Each unit contains not only text presentations on the topic but also plenty of engaging exercises to check your understanding. The access to the course is time limited but it is more than enough to complete all units with assignments (just remember to stick to your learning schedule ;) ). Overall, the course was a pleasant and enriching experience. It's even better if you also book the 10h teaching practice in one of Academy's locations. Helps you put everything you learned into perspective and it's a great opportunity to brainstorm teaching ideas with other course participants.

Since I enjoy learning on my own and take pedagogy lessons in school, the lessons' underlying theories were extremely similar. Although the curriculum taught in TEFL is often very simple, you still need a place to go through it all so that you can take notes and undertake assignments. I would suggest anyone who is interested in taking this course to just complete it and make notes on your laptop with relevant keywords so you can go back on them later for assignments and make notes on any references they provide you with as well. I recently completed my TEFL course, and I can't wait to start tutoring:)
