An excellent beginner training course

I finished this experience at the weekend and am happy to write a review in support of the TEFL course. I have found the course to be interesting and useful for me to understand how to teach English to children. The unit on planning and motivation and assessing are for me the best ones as I can learn how to really make interesting lessons with purposes.

About the cost, it is very cheap but there are many cheap courses now, so I don't think it is 'too' cheap, but just right for me. The staff, I have not needed to worry them with emails, but the feedback on the website course is very good.

Interesting material and very well structured

This is actually my second time doing a TEFL. The first one was 100 hours (won’t name names) and poor quality. I lost my PDF, but aim told it might not even have counted anyway as most places ask for 120 hours. Well whatever the case is, this course was immense in comparison to that one, on every point aside from that one had job support that forced them to give you up to date job links. This one does some of the same job stuff but there isn’t really a daily job update or anything. Everything else wipes the floor with the textbook type course I did. I assume tech prices for coding now are so much cheaper as is video production etc. either way, I’m impressed by what you get here.

Pros
  • Cheap
  • Lots of extras included
  • Fast email reply

Excellent

It's a course that is excellent in almost every way. I started it last year and have seen it get better in terms of visuals, videos, and written content. I have messaged the tutor, and they have always responded quickly. The structure of the 120-hour course makes a lot of sense, and I enjoy studying it.

However, I have one major issue: some of the videos are not available in Indonesia when I am traveling there because Vimeo's private video system is blocked there (and possibly in China too). They suggested using a free VPN to access them. After leaving Indonesia, everything works perfectly, but this was a little irritating.

Excellent training

For starters, I didn't think I'd get much for something online that cost pretty much a couple of hours work - no offence ST! I figured I'd be going in, yawning my way through, then coming out with a bit of paper and a better understanding of how to make a simple sentence. Actually, I thought the course was excellent. Like, properly solid and definitely worth spending time reading through everything a couple of times to better understand it. The scenario tasks or whatever their name is for them were great and paired with the classroom videos make this course really strong. Keep up the top work!

Very good

Firstly, I can't see how anyone wouldn't rave about this course considering its price and general vibe. It is excellent. Some things I'd rate as very good and others at even better. When I first saw the inside of the course I was pretty blown away as there's just an upmarket vibe about it. When you click through the content and everything opens smoothly and has a nice pastel look there's something zen going on. It's classy and not at all what you'd think of a 30 pound course.

Secondly, it isn't just a course that makes you read long dissertations of text. I found it really easy to skim then zoom into parts where I wanted more detail, then when I felt like being challenged a bit, I'd read the practice questions and go back and either think of the answer of hunt on the page. The set-up worked well for my style of learning. I didn't make use of the video lectures. Every practice activity has more than ample feedback to read through, which actually meant my only ever question to support staff was related to getting an apostille.

On that note, the website had enough information on it to cover any question i had except for which certificate should be used for sending to be apostilled. This is an excellent training course and the fact that I feel less anxioous about teaching after doing the course says alot about its quality. My advice: take it.

Smooth

My advice is to do this course unless you need something with a practicing or that’s in person. I completed the course with practical assignments and found it useful to get some real feedback, but honestly there’s a heap of solid feedback on all the automated content, assuming the content matches identically (no idea of it does, but they told me it’s the same course except for the assignments and a tutor looking them over and commenting. Back to the subject though, the course was excellent value but also just excellent in terms of knowledge and how it was displayed.

A real bargain

Sometimes you find a real bargain and it just goes to plan. This is that and that is epic! These guys have something really special in that they don’t seem to settle for just fine. For example, I messaged about a practice quiz having a font size that was a bit small for my liking and they told me they’d fix it. An hour later, I got an email saying it was fixed - every practice quiz since then has been in larger dont. Taking this course has taught me A LOT! Highly recommended to anyone looking for a TESOL cert.

What would you improve about this program?
The thing is, I gave them feedback on how to improve it and they acted on it. That blew my mind.
Pros
  • They listen to feedback
  • There’s so much included
  • The content is really useful and practical
What other participants should know
  • If only the certificate came in black…
Washington, baby!

Surprisingly good TEFL intro

For anyone looking to do 120-hour TEFL (TESOL or whatever), I vouch for these guys. I came into this blind as Stevie about anything teaching or English or Asia even but now I reckon I have myself a good idea of what's what when I hit China.

It wasn't easy. I never do easy anyway. What they say on their site is something about teaching you to teach or whatever and thats what I felt like I got. I never felt they were rushin me through or sending an easy out. To me, that's real. I got my certificates with a click and that's me. They give good info about gettig docs apostiled, that's easy enough.

Can’t recommend it enough

Righto, so I’m going to discuss the 120 hour TEFL/TESOL from study-TEFL. I definitely recommend this course. My reasons are as follows: the price is so cheap, there are videos to watch instead of just text, the text isn’t put down in a boring way, there are different activities to do, they give a lot of links for job networking when you finish, and so on. I’m feeling really positive about everything after doing the course. I saw other teachers teaching and it doesn’t look so daunting as much anymore. I feel like I’m at least kinda ready for this.
