Program Reviews

It is a great feeling and experience that I could get good amount of insights in to the way we can teach and how important the role of a language teacher is. I am thoroughly indebted to your programme and wish that you cater to the needs of many an aspiring teacher from the world over. I am very confident that you will ever continue guiding the teaching fraternity and help them lead their lives in a more satisfying and accomplishing manner. I am also looking forward to be an active member and move into teaching, using the resources and knowledge I have gained from your initiative

Hurray!!

It was my first TESOL course and I really took it seriously but it gave me the opportunity to organize all the thoughts and experiences I had in my mind. Thank you so much, for also making it more accessible and self - guide. I would like to say there were some moments where I thought I was not gonna finish the course, but I had already done like 60%, and then I kept pushing until I finished it. The beginning is the biggest part of the course, the rest can be really well complemented with experience and patience.

The World TESOL Academy gave me the opportunity to get the TESOL/TEFL certificate I wanted for a very reasonable price. The website was easy to navigate; the lessons were clear, structured, and practical. It's a great option for anyone who is thinking about getting certified to teach in-person or online. Not only has it reinforced my memory, but it has also further expanded my knowledge. I am now looking forward to using what I learned during this online course to help my students achieve their goals.

This program helps me gain a broad understanding of how to teach English as a foreign language. With no teaching background, it helps me learn different methods of teaching, from beginner to advanced levels, especially for non-English speakers. It includes video demonstrations on how to present the subject, create lesson plans, and provides tips for teaching efficiently. I enjoyed every module, as it was simple yet informative. This program will be invaluable to me as I plan to pursue teaching in a foreign country.

I really enjoyed this course and would highly recommend it to anyone. The structure of the course is easy to follow and self explanatory. The content is comprehensive and well laid out with all the information needed to start a career in English education. The addition of video's which give a glimpse into handling a class assisted my understanding greatly and was highly motivational. The 4 month time period that is given in order to complete the course is more than sufficient. The final exam was tough and the odd question is slightly unclear but still excellent!

Compared to many other TESOL training agencies, I must say World Academy is the best for New Teachers. At least it's much cheaper.
First of all, compared to TKT textbook, World Tesol Academy's 120h course is compact and concise, but covering various aspects of how to teach. And you don't have to take an offline exam, so it's also cost-saving. However, since you can take multiple times to get a higher record of the quiz, and you don't need to give demo class or write any essays, I would say it's easier to pass the exam, thus to say, you won't have production training neither receive any feedback of it. So it's not as challenging as to pass CELTA. So I think it's your best first teaching certification.
Moreover, even if you have passed TKT, you can still learn something from TESOL. For example, you will learn how to teach online which is illustrated in a whole module but not mentioned much in TKT. Compared to some TKT textbooks, I would say TESOL is more updated.
Last but not least, you always have a tutor to ask if you have any questions. This is the most surprising part of the course. As a new teacher, you may encounter many problems while teaching, such as class management. Personally, I asked three practical questions which were not related to the exam, but I still received very detailed and helpful suggestions. I think this is the most valuable service for new teachers.
However, if you're an experienced teacher, I think CELTA or DELTA would be better choices.

Studying with WORLD TESOL ACADEMY has been a remarkable journey, one that has not only expanded my knowledge but also opened up exciting international opportunities. From the very beginning, I knew I had made the right choice in choosing this academy. The flexibility, comprehensive support, and valuable resources provided by WORLD TESOL ACADEMY have greatly enriched my learning experience, preparing me for a fulfilling career in teaching English overseas.

One of the most notable aspects of studying with WORLD TESOL ACADEMY is the flexibility of the program. The academy offers a self-paced learning environment, which allowed me to study whenever it suited my schedule. This level of accessibility was especially beneficial, as I could balance my studies with other commitments without feeling pressured to meet strict deadlines. Being able to log in and study at any time was essential to my success, as it provided a stress-free way to absorb the material thoroughly and effectively.

The technical support provided by WORLD TESOL ACADEMY has been impeccable. Throughout my studies, there were no interruptions or issues that hindered my learning process. The support team was quick to respond to any questions or technical concerns I encountered, ensuring a smooth and seamless experience. This level of professionalism in handling technical matters reflected the academy's dedication to creating a supportive and user-friendly platform for students. Knowing I had reliable support gave me peace of mind and allowed me to focus entirely on my studies.

WORLD TESOL ACADEMY's curriculum is both comprehensive and engaging. I found each module to be meticulously designed, covering all essential aspects of TESOL, from lesson planning and classroom management to cultural awareness and language acquisition. Every module provided a detailed exploration of the skills and knowledge required to become an effective teacher. The structure of the modules was logical, allowing for gradual progression from foundational concepts to more advanced topics. This approach facilitated a deeper understanding of TESOL methodologies, which has been invaluable for my professional growth.

I particularly appreciated the academy's approach to assessment. After each module, there was an evaluation to assess my understanding of the material. This method of frequent assessment was highly beneficial, as it helped reinforce what I had learned and ensured I was retaining the key concepts. The feedback provided after each evaluation was constructive, enabling me to identify areas for improvement and build upon my strengths. This continuous evaluation process motivated me to stay engaged and consistently enhance my skills.

Another highlight of WORLD TESOL ACADEMY is its focus on preparing students for international teaching opportunities. The academy recognizes the importance of cultural awareness in TESOL, and this focus has been instrumental in expanding my global perspective. The curriculum includes strategies for teaching English to diverse groups, emphasizing the importance of cultural sensitivity and adaptability in the classroom. This preparation has given me confidence in my ability to teach in various cultural settings, which is essential for anyone aspiring to teach English overseas.

In conclusion, studying with WORLD TESOL ACADEMY has been an enriching experience that has prepared me thoroughly for a career in TESOL. The academy’s flexible study options, reliable technical support, structured curriculum, and international focus have all contributed to my success as a student. I am grateful for the skills and knowledge I have gained and feel confident and well-prepared to embark on a fulfilling journey as an English teacher across the globe. WORLD TESOL ACADEMY has truly been instrumental in helping me achieve my goals and open doors to exciting overseas opportunities.

This course has really taught some insights information that we didn’t cover in university relating to teaching. From the things that helped me to develop my skills in teaching are how to motivate students in a smart way, create an engaging lesson plan according to students needs, and the most important one is, NEVER using the native language, but instead focusing only the target language, and using helping tools such as, TPR, flashcards, mimicking, and data shows for better understanding and engagement inside the class.

I would have to say that my learning experience at World TESOL Academy has been so worthwhile and rewarding because you can actually be able to learn so much about what it's like to be a teacher regardless of the subject that you are teaching in the school and you can also be inspired by the other teachers who have taught English successfully whether abroad or at home by studying how they usually teach their lessons to their own students. The certificate that you get is definitely worth the price

I really enjoyed this course. It was very concise even though it covered a wide variety of aspects of teaching English. The first part helped me brush up on my grammar and I even learned things I hadn't known before.

I was born in the U.S. and have known English my whole life. It was really helpful reading through the lessons and learning different things that help introduce English to non-native speakers.

I also do not have much classroom teaching experience, so it was helpful learning about the different teaching techniques that a teacher can use in a classroom to help engage students and aid in subject retention.
