Program Reviews

As the title states, there is not an aspect of this course that I could complain about. The user experience was incredibly smooth and guided by James, who also provides podcasts for extra support. The actual aesthetics of the course itself made for incredibly easy navigation and functionality. An important point to make is how simple, informative and beneficial the content was. Moreover, it was categorized brilliantly through an introduction then easing you into other topics. Could no recommend enough. 5/5.

It was a really good course and really helped me to expand my knowledge on how to become a good TEFL teacher. I feel much more confident in going into this profession now and it has made me a lot more excited to start. Specifically the parts which educated on how to plan and what is needed to know to become a TEFL teacher are what I found most vital as these were things I have never previously been made aware of, and would know if it were not for how well they were explained within the course. The videos in between modules also were really helpful and helped to give a breather from all the reading.

I found this course to be engaging, and easy to follow. The podcasts made it feel more personable and relatable. The information was presented in a clear format and my progress was easily viewed at all times which helped with motivation! Despite limited prior knowledge, I did not feel overwhelmed by the material as it was presented in digestible chunks with useful examples

I am now feeling more confident in my knowledge and excited to put it into practice in Thailand this October.
Would highly recommend!

TEFL Nomad is an exceptional course, offering an all-encompassing curriculum that has been designed with the needs of a future teacher in mind. The platform's user-friendly interface stands out, ensuring a smooth and uninterrupted learning journey.
The insightful podcasts hosted by James bring an extra dimension to the learning process. Adding an extra layer of real experience that goes beyond just learning your role as a teacher.
As an aspiring teacher about to embark on an overseas adventure, this course has provided me with the essential tools and the confidence I need. The modules on online teaching, classroom management, and lesson planning were particularly impactful as these were entirely new territories for me. Yet the course made them approachable and intriguing, filling the gaps in my knowledge and skillset.
The course's practical nature and its ability to provide a real educational experience are noteworthy. It has a holistic approach that caters to various aspects of teaching English as a foreign language.
In-depth, practical, and educational, overall a great course.

This course provided by TEFL Nomad is very comprehensive. Through this course I've learnt lots of different aspects about the TEFL world: different learners' profiles and preferences, grammar essentials, lesson planning, classroom management, etc. It was extremely easy to navigate through the course - each module is divided into units and you can complete these at your own pace. Something really unique about this course is that it includes a podcast by an actual EFL teacher - listening to first hand experiences was truly invaluable. Thanks to TEFL Nomad I've secured a placement in a public school in Thailand, where I'll be working as an EFL teacher, can't wait!

I am moving to Thailand to start my first teaching placement in October and this course has given me so much confidence ahead of this new journey. The course is incredibly comprehensive, covering all aspects of teaching. Everything from the structure of the English language, how to engross and manage a class, and how to prepare the best lessons possible. The podcasts with James are incredibly engaging and provide fascinating insights into his own experience teaching English as a foreign language.

I really enjoyed this course and found it easy to follow as someone with dyslexia! It even taught me a thing or two I didn't know about grammar and pronunciation. The videos with James are really helpful. The coloured and numbered headings really help individual sections to stand out. I also appreciated the focus on classroom management and cultural awareness.This includes lesson plans and information on how to motivate learners by age group. The course gives you many opportunities to go over modules. Can't wait to start my TEFL career!

In my case, I studied teaching ESL as my undergrad, and have hands-on experience in the field, so my intention in doing this course was to review and refresh what I know, and maybe learn something new -- I finished the course accomplishing both of these things! I also found the video podcasts with James to be engaging, useful, and totally relevant. I'm looking to teach abroad for the first time, and this course helped me to feel more reassured and up-to-speed on my teaching skills and knowledge. For a concise and well-organized certification course in EFL teaching, I'd definitely recommend this one by TEFL Nomad!

I just completed this TEFL (teaching English as a foreign language) course and I had an amazing experience! The context was comprehensive, well-rounded and covered all the essential topics necessary for becoming and effective English teacher. One aspect that I liked was the site platform which was easy to use and James' podcasts helped guide me through each course. The platform layout was clear and the instructions given ensured that I never felt overwhelmed or lost during the learning process. Highly recommend this TEFL course!

Course is a good introduction but does not provide much support for real life EFL teaching. Lot of useful information but could be provided in a more accessible format like in more templates and guides that could be used throughout a teachers journey. I found the layout very easy to follow and a good structure to the content. I enjoyed the podcasts as I found these more engaging than the written content, and so would like to so more variety in the presentation of information to engage all types of learners.
