Simple, valuable insights

Hands-on tips like using props in class, seating arrangement ideas, and reward systems for students were valuable. Especially the module on Online Teaching has been extremely helpful in this day and age of the internet! It gave me good advice and guidance on how to maintain and even develop professionalism in an online classroom setting. And the tips on how to successfully complete online teaching job interviews were fun! Learning materials were easy to understand. However, don't be fooled by the simple texts because a lot of simple material can pile up at the end of the course. So you'd better take your notes as you go. Great experience overall!

What was the most surprising thing you saw or did?
Teaching methods like PPP, TTT, and TBL were new to me.
Pros
  • Easy to navigate
  • Good instrunctions
  • Good quizzes
Cons
  • Time-consuming

A great start to a teaching career

I really enjoyed this TESOL course because it gave me all the basics I needed to start teaching English. The lessons were clear and easy to follow. I learned how to plan lessons, manage a classroom, and explain grammar in simple ways. The best part - i’ve already used what I learned in real classes at my college, and it’s working! The course gave me the confidence to stand in front of students and teach effectively.The tutors were kind enough to answer all of my questions took.
If you wish to teach abroad using this certificate, you have the option to order a hard copy with an apostille.

What would you improve about this program?
Personally I would like to see more hands-on teaching practice in this course.
Pros
  • Flexible learning
  • Price
  • Well-structured information
Cons
  • Limited access to the course

Excellent Course for Teachers!

I participated in the TEAL certificate program training. It was truly an enjoyable experience. It gave me a new perspective and is a reliable platform. I highly recommend it to all teachers who wish to improve themselves in the field of education. Once again, thank you!

Other certificate programs are waiting for me—for example, the TEOL certificate program. This will truly be an important training because I have not received professional education before. A teaching career is very important for us, and we need to take advantage of new opportunities.

A very useful course

The course is very useful. It has been well-designed and is easy to learn. It also has very good information on how to proceed with the basics of teaching the English language. The course basically covers all the aspects of teaching the language to non-native speakers, or teaching it as a second language. A number of simple tricks also make the process of teaching easier, something with future teachers can also use in their own teaching methodology. Moreover, the course also helped me refresh my own basics of the English language.

Helpful

The course design is very reasonable, and the language is straightforward. Through various sections, I have learned the foundational structure of English as a language. Additionally, I have gained insights into how to communicate with beginners and create more engaging lessons. For online courses, it has provided many constructive suggestions to help me better secure teaching opportunities, record introductory videos, and organize my time to adapt to students from different countries. Thank you!

TESOL/TEFL course

In my opinion I found the platform to be really easy to use. I personally liked that the platform lets you know the percentage of your course progress with a visible completion bar. The course itself was exactly what I was looking for. The lessons are very organized and their content extremely helpful. Some lessons include videos of actual TESOL/TEFL teachers in their classroom as examples to aid in explaining the topic at hand. I fully recommend this course if you are pursuing a career in this area.

TESOL online courses review

It was not my first time having online courses like this. But I can surely say that it was one of my favorite and effective courses that I have ever had. Because this course has provided me with carefully planned and comfortable pages and interesting additional information about the English language for teachers, students and so forth. As an ESL teacher it was a great experience for me to get this course.

Thank you for this awesome experience and useful knowledge. I will definetly return to take another courses from here.

Good job!

The platform is good; the content is very helpful and easy to handle. Only there were some quiz questions, which were confusing as another option also could be possible as a correct answer, in my opinion. I liked it that there was no time stress, you have so much time as you need to prepare yourself for quizzes or to learn without time pressure, I liked also lots of word expressions, which can definitely be useful for teaching. Also, the videos were a good change from reading and concentration on practical types of teaching and kids' behaviour.

Teaching online module

Thank you for such a great opportunity. I have learned lots of tricks in Teaching online module, I would like to start teaching online. I have graduated my master's in pedagogics in 2000 and did not have a chance to practice. This is a good opportunity to start my own business. I would like to apply offline too as did teach at school, a kindergartetn and university too and online teaching will be my additional job. All tutorial materials, thoughts, suggestions, the flashcards ideas are awesome. I will definitely refer to all my friends.

What was the most nerve-racking moment and how did you overcome it?
Engaging students, this is the challenging part, specifically for online tutors, however, nothing is impossible. Hard work, creativity and willing to share your knowledge with your students is a great opportunity to help others.
Pros
  • The given material is pretty selfexplanatory
  • Flashcards are very useful
  • Discount was very helpful for me
Cons
  • Some questions reminded me as if I am on IELTS exam

Grateful for a Wonderful Learning Experience in Teaching English

This course was an incredible experience, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to grow as an English teacher. The material was clear, practical, and inspiring, covering everything from classroom management to modern online teaching. I appreciated the focus on real-world skills like using props, encouraging participation, and adapting to student needs. It also reminded me of the deeper impact teaching can have on people’s lives. I feel more confident, prepared, and excited to begin this journey. Thank you to everyone who made this course possible!

What is your advice to future travelers on this program?
Stay open, stay patient, and practice as you go. This program gives you powerful tools, but the real growth happens when you apply them. Take every opportunity to practice teaching, even informally with friends or family. Don’t worry about being perfect — focus on connecting, communicating, and improving step-by-step. The more energy and positivity you bring, the more you (and your future students) will get out of it. And remember: every great teacher started somewhere. Enjoy the journey!
Pros
  • Practical and Actionable Training
  • Strong Focus on Student Engagement
  • Comprehensive Coverage
Cons
  • Limited Hands-On Practice Opportunities
