Program Reviews

Having been a teacher for many years, and knowing the sheer quantity of information that a TEFL teacher might need, I was, at first, a little suspicious whether one could cram in a whole course in just 11 units. I was dead wrong. I took copious notes and filled notebook after notebook, going deeper into the theories of teaching than I had ever imagined. I enjoyed the course immensely and although some parts did not really apply to my history or future plans (namely teaching young learners), the new details opened my eyes to other areas and gave me a fresh perspective.

Very informative and encouraging course. this is a really well structured and engaging course. the podcasts are great and offer an insight into rea life experiences as a TEFL teacher. The topics are well organised and instructive with lots of helpful tips and information. Some parts are very difficult and hard to remember but they are explained well and effectively. sections that focus on classroom management are also extremely useful and i will no doubt carry these tops forward into my teaching experience

I recently completed the TEFL Nomad course and found it to be a really easy system to use with the sections broken down into mini chapters which kept my motivation up without feeling too overwhelmed.

The course provided a solid foundation in both teaching theory and classroom practice, covering everything from lesson planning and grammar instruction to managing different learner levels and using technology effectively. I definitely learned a few things along the way!

The modules were well-structured, with a good balance of reading, video content, and thought provoking tasks with multiple choice questions at the end of each section to make sure I was retaining the information. I especially appreciated the focus on real-world teaching skills and taking on their advice this will enable me to build confidence in the classroom.

Some elements were a bit repetitive but this also solidified my knowledge.

I would recommend this course to anyone looking to begin a career in English language teaching abroad!

This course is really full of useful information, is easy to access and navigate the course. it has been really helpful in opening your mind up to different things within the English language and the difference in cultures. the team are really supportive and give a quick response which helps things feel easier. is easy to come back and on the course if you need a break. overall course is really helpful and full of useful tips and tricks to improve your teaching skills. would highly recommend to anyone.

This course is generally quite useful, at least insofar as the information it provides. I was careful to read through each section, and I found this made the quizzes at the end very easy. I fear that they might have been easy regardless; that is to say, someone could just guess the answers to the questions, pass the course, and show up in a foreign school with no idea how to teach. I think the most important component of this course is that it actually teaches English grammar. My understanding is that other similar courses focus more on teaching strategies, leaving students incapable of teaching English with any depth.

Having just completed this course it has fully set me up for my new journey as an EFL teacher, it has all the knowledge and guidance you will need, and full support throughout. I couldn’t recommend this course enough. The course shows a general scope of cultural norms worldwide, and talks about what is socially acceptable in different countries, so wherever your EFL teaching may land you this course is perfectly shaped for everyone’s needs. It was very engaging and never overbearing, with lots of assessments and quizzes throughout, it’s the perfect learning guide!

This course was well organized and well presented. It felt more like reading a guide than a textbook, which made the material more intuitive. Hearing James' personal anecdotes was a nice addition to the course. The assessments at the end of each section covered the material well and facilitated my understanding. The material also makes a valuable reference for teaching, as it has guides for teaching different class sizes and age groups. Overall, this course provided me with a comprehensive and practical foundation in TEFL.

This course was absolutely amazing! It provided the perfect balance of flexibility and structure, allowing me to complete it while managing other commitments like school, work, and hobbies. The ability to learn at my own pace was incredibly valuable, making the experience stress-free and enjoyable.

Beyond just the convenience, the course encouraged deep reflection on aspects of teaching that I hadn’t initially considered important. It broadened my perspective, reinforced key teaching concepts, and gave me practical strategies that I can apply in real-life classroom situations.

Now, I feel truly prepared and confident to step into a teaching role. I have gained not only knowledge but also the skills and mindset needed to be an effective educator. I would highly recommend this course to anyone looking to develop their teaching abilities in a flexible and supportive learning environment!

Overall the course was well put together and easy to navigate. It contained useful and appropriate information which was easily digestible with recommendations of how to approach the the subject.

Though saying the above, the questions had too many double negatives and some were worded a bit strangely. In addition it needed more examples in many sections as some grammar or teaching had only a few examples.

I would recommend this course for anyone who wants to obtain a TEFL qualification in order to teach abroad as it was extremely useful.

The online TEFL course was well-structured and engaging, covering essential topics like grammar, lesson planning, and classroom management. The interactive modules made learning dynamic, and the flexibility allowed for self-paced study. The course provided practical strategies and useful resources to build confidence in teaching English. While some sections could be more detailed, it offered a solid foundation for aspiring TEFL teachers. A great choice for those starting their TEFL journey! I would recommend!
