A Wonderful Breakthrough!

Originally, all I wanted was to improve my credentials or further my education; I never imagined that I would also find the course material and lessons to be enjoyable. The World TESOL Academy is the greatest, they provide thorough and useful lessons. The lifetime free access is a fantastic feature. Even as a photographer, I find small elements like the certificate's design to be rather pleasing. Making oneself proud after graduating from this academy is certain! I would like to express my gratitude to the entire staff of this company for creating such a conducive platform for TESOL study!

What would you improve about this program?
To lessen the cost of the shipping fee when availing the hard copy certificate.

Great value for money

I chose this course because of its price and didn't expect much from it. However, it's completely exceeded my expectations. Not only does it contain all the necessary information to back up your practice but it's written in a very simple and understandable language. There's a support team who can answer your questions but I didn't resort to their help as the information is well-structured and given in comprehensible chunks. This course is definitely worth its money! I'm going to take another course here.

Clear and simple

This course is very clear and simple!
It’ s easy to understand and well structured.
It uses key words that penetrate in the brain quickly and highlight the most important aspects of teaching.
It gives examples and tricks to engage with the students.
Just a small suggestion would be add some interactive exercises/test in some of the sessions. For example a way to test our pronunciation, or maybe a simulation of a very short teaching class about a specific topic with one of the tutor, in order to check if the teaching method was well understood. Let’s say…a small live session to confirm the knowledge acquired, that gives us a real feedback at the end of the course.
Not to forget… affordable!
Highly recommended!

What was the most nerve-racking moment and how did you overcome it?
The “teaching listening” class was my nerve-racking moment because, during the course we are interacting with slides in a pc/tablet but not with humans. At that point, my question was ”how can I practice this? What exercise is most suitable?”
Well…the answer was…”none, until I have a student in front of me”.
Only then I realized that I could drive to my mum’s place to practice… it was a really fun time! 😅Stress relieved!
Pros
  • Clear
  • Cheap
  • Simple

World TESOL Academy Review

This self paced online learning platform is easy to use and packed full of detailed and informative content. The quizzes are helpful to confirm the knowledge retained or any misunderstood. I enjoyed going through the material at a pace that was comfortable for me. I took extensive notes and was able to retake quizzes to review the concepts that I found more difficult. I was able to study even while travelling in Europe. I would recommend this course to anyone interested in considering a job teaching English.

What would you improve about this program?
Though the material was easy to access, detailed and mostly comprehensive, along with the option to seek out assistance if required, I would have enjoyed it more if it was more interactive.
Pros
  • Well priced
  • Easy to use
  • Plenty of content
What other participants should know
  • Some lessons too long/too much content at one time
  • Too few quizzes for modules with large amounts of content
  • No human interaction unless struggling

TEFL certification review

This program was extremely easy to navigate, accommodating, and straight forward. It was a very seamless process, which I appreciate as I hope to pursue teaching overseas in Taiwan! I enjoyed the interesting course content that kept me engaged and encouraged. The mini quizzes throughout were very helpful and prepared me well for the exam! I will say the final exam was a little repetitive and I would have enjoyed some new questions, but I'm not complaining too much! I will definitely be recommending this to a friend!

What is your advice to future travelers on this program?
Apply to as many job opportunities that you see in the country that you want to go to! There are so many options out there, but don't compromise your location, salary, or benefits because of the job! Just keep applying!

Straightforward Learning

This course was laid out quite well & easy to follow along with. I look forward to applying the knowledge I've learned here toward finding employment while living overseas.

Though I spent some time procrastinating the start of the course, I found myself a bit addicted to completing each course & checking my overall progress/completion on my dashboard. To be honest, I was a bit impatient along the way - adjusting the video speed to 1.5x and binge-learning, but I believe I finished the course ahead of the expected requirement / 120-hour estimate.

Good luck to everyone!

120-hour TESOL Certification Program Review

I had a wonderful experience with this TESOL course. I was initially worried about whether I can keep up with the course given how busy I am with my work, but the program was designed so efficiently that I had zero problems at all. The course was very engaging with its use of pictures and easy to understand language and format. I also like how the mmodules aren't overly long or detailed. The modules are just enough to keep me well-informed about the topics. What was initially daunting to me proved to be an amazing experience. I would definitely recommend this course to others!

What is your advice to future travelers on this program?
Do not be afraid to take the course! TESOL seems scary but this program makes learning fun.

  • Excellent platform
  • Easy to understand lessons
  • Interesting lessons
What other participants should know

My way to get the TESOL certificate

I'm 31 years old man. I moved to Vietnam and encounter the problem of choosing new way of living. My friends told me that teaching English is a good way to live here, so I listened to them, but I had no idea how to teach children. Also almost every english center or kindergarten ask for TESOL certificate. So I checked internet and found World TESOL Academy, also my friend completed 120h course and got certificate. This course gave overall understanding of how to teach young learners. So I can create my own plan and put there my ideas. Thank you very much!

Affordable and Comprehensive.

I was absolutely astonished at how comprehensive and at times complex this course was. I did all my homework concerning different courses and was looking for something affordable. I am a dedicated learner with a few tertiary academic degrees but was surprised by the complexity of this course if done properly. I have read many reviews of so called critics that finished it in a day or a week. ?? Impossible if one really are interested In doing it properly. I was extremely satisfied with the course and have absolutely no regrets in doing it. I refuse to pay 1000 plus dollars for similar courses that lacks in complexity and depth. Totally real review challenging anyone to contact me directly that disagrees. Regards Petrus

Amazing Experience with English

As a foreigner who had to learn English by myself as a second tongue, I always wondered if I could be a person who could help others to learn English in a better and easier way. Having this course absolutely gave me a confidence that I needed to teach English.

Now I am excited with this new opportunity provided by this program, and wondering where would it be taking me to. I hope having this experience will give me more opportunities to travel around the globe.

Thank you for providing me a great support and amazing experience!

What is your advice to future travelers on this program?
Sit relaxed and enjoy every module the course provide for you. I am sure you have one or couple of things to learn from.
Pros
  • Easy and helpful
  • Freedom without restriction to schedule
