Program Reviews

I benefited hugely from this cohesive and in-depth course. It was laid out in a very accessible and clear manner, as well as going into detail about all possible aspects of teaching English as a foreign language abroad. The mixture of audio and visual elements made the course easy to follow and entertaining as well as educational. I really appreciated the inclusion of podcasts and the care given to intercultural sensitivity and how to tailor your classroom behavior and rules according to your students' needs. This was a fantastic course!

As someone with minimal teaching experience, I definitely picked up some amazing skills from this course! The course is structured very clearly and cohesively, and I think it offers advice and valuable support for all aspects of teaching. James' podcasts were great, too! I appreciated having personal anecdotes to draw from. Overall, I would definitely recommend this TEFL programme to anyone looking to go abroad and teach, I feel like I have learned a multitude of vital teaching skills that I cannot wait to use.

Great course, learned a lot. The information is very helpful and will come into use in the future when I travel!
I loved the platform though. The points system is a nice way to motivate you to keep working and you can even keep track of your friends in a leaderboard! How fun! Glad I did this course.

The regular use of podcasts recounting personal experience is insightful and extremely helpful. Lots of good practical advice, as well as theoretical, is given, particularly with regard to classroom management. Traditionally difficult components of language such as grammar are made digestible and explained succinctly and effectively. I highly recommend this course to any aspiring or current English language teachers!

This course was very helpful. I appreciated how much content was included. The website was very user friendly and easy to use. I also appreciated the amount of content that was included related to being an educator. As someone who got my degree in education, that content was very accurate and helpful to review. I also really enjoyed the podcast videos. Those videos gave more perspective from someone who has taught abroad. This made the course relatable and I felt more understood. I also liked how each module was about a different topic. The modules also built off each other which was nice.

Good course. Super easy. It can be completed quickly if you're motivated. It gives a lot of examples in each section to help you understand the material. It has a section specifically for online teaching, which is helpful. The course covers differences in teaching from young learners to adults. It gives you a layout for lesson plans that will be useful for any classroom. I've spent 5 years teaching online and 3 years teaching abroad, and found most of the course material relevant to my experience.

This is a really well-structured and engaging course. The podcasts are great and offer an insight into real-life experiences as a EFL teacher. The topics are well organised and instructive with lots of helpful tips and information. Although some parts (particularly the grammar sections) are difficult, they are explained well and effectively. Sections that focus on classroom management are also extremely useful and I will no doubt carry these tips forward into my teaching experience. I have really enjoyed doing this course!
