Program Reviews

The longer course wasn't much more money than the 120 hours, so I figured why not? You actually do the 120 first and then you go through a young learner's course and finish on teaching adults. The whole thing was fantastic. They boast about value for money and having lots of useful content, which you kind of take with a grain of salt, but when you do the course you actually see what they mean - it's vast and it really gets into detail about what teaching English is like. Most units lead you into a type of visualization process where you need to select which strategy you'd choose from a few, but the best thing is that they give you feedback about why the selection's right. That really helped me learn more and is one of the reasons I rate this course and this training company so highly.

I have thought before this that maybe the TEFL course is a few hours of reading and make the answers very easy, but actually this is not the way. The course it has many text to read through and many questions. Therefore, it is not a fast or easy course. For this I am very happy. Also, I can down-load the text to translate and read separate. This was a good thing. The video not me interested, but the quiz is good each time to remember. I have no contact with the staff but they send to me the certificate in 20 minutes or 30 minutes. It is a strong course.

I give a huge thumbs up to this course. It's nice to be right about things, and I feel that way with this course. I went through the website, checked the accreditation and looked at their free lesson before dropping any cash on it, and my gut feeling turned out to be spot on. What I love was the detail that went into every unit and their attempts to make it more practical than just 'here's some text, learn it, now put your regurgitated answer here'. I didn't have an issue with the avatar videos (I ran them on double speed on my phone while driving, though admittedly that was a bit soporific), and considering it was £40 I can't see how you could really expect more. Absolutely I recommend these guys.

I didn't need much aside from a certificate to hook up a job in Korea and a bit of know how to not look like a muppet when I rock up for that job, and I got all that for my 30+ euros. I was kind of expecting to cruise through it in a few hours as I'd read that's the deal with most courses under 100 euros but not a chance you're done with this in a few hours as theres a ton of content. It's not hard but it's kinda lot to learn. The reading wasn't my thing so I hit up the videos on fast and was able to get learned up like that. Quizzes were fine, just a mix of questions. At the end of I'm sat here and I think I know how to teach so I'm set. Just need my recruiter to hook me up with something that isn't screaming 5 year olds.

I'm impressed with what I got, but of course the price helps me say that! To be fair to this company, they make it hard not to be happy with them minus one or two things that had me wondering what they were up to (eg not splitting up reading and listening onto 2 units, so they have 2 units on them combined). Really though, it's a strong course and most of the stuff just clicked- especially things like tpr and their teaching about making games of the boring stuff. My experience was very good, so there you have it.

The course is lovely with lots of interesting informations and is very professional with the tutors. My experience was full of knowledges and it has helped me understand the language more better and how I can teach others. I think the activities are interesting and thoughtful though the loading time for videos and the text pdf is sometimes a few seconds inside the page, which can feel burdenful though not a big problem. Aside the loading speed everything is smooth and I recommend the course for new teachers want to train. I can upload this certificate for online teaching with success.

Staff: Exceptional. They replied quickly and answered my questions the couple of times I had them. They prepared my certificate exactly as I asked with my middle names.

Material: I hadn't expected there to be so much. I mean, there is a lot of work that's gone into this. There were videos covering everything, and I mean everything. The best thing was being able to see teachers teaching classes, though one video was a bit poor quality.

Assessments: There were different type with quizzes for review and other quiz things that took you through classroom scenarios, which was pretty clever I thought. Every unit there's a unit quiz. The midterm and final are just review basically, so it's nothing difficult but it's pretty thorough.

Certificate: Gorgeous! I got it emailed to me quickly.

Learning quality: Despite this not being a practical course, I feel like I got so much from it. I paid $39 and feel like I could've paid $100 more and still be satisfied, though I suppose it's easy to say in theory. Regardless, I learned alot! I absolutely recommend this company and the 120 hour TESOL course.

Look, I'll be blunt, I had fairly low expectations before starting this course - it's cheap and though not the cheapest I figured it'd be pretty basic. After a few lessons I realised I had it wrong and started, I wouldn't say enjoying it because it's still quite heavy learning, but maybe I'll say appreciating it. They could make a few changes to how the text is broken down maybe with shorter video sections but I appreciated the flow of everything and how they've tried to make it more practical than just theory.

There's usually a trade-off when you buy cheap, but in this case it wasn't that obvious, thankfully. There's nothing fancy going on, but things worked when I needed them to and I thought the consistency was helpful since I'm the kind of guy who can't be dealing with change every unit. I covered maybe a lesson every 2 nights and found that a workable pace without feeling overwhelmed. I liked that it was just quizzes, but don't expect just a few questions and pass - there are some in the lesson for practice that count in the end quizzes, so it's a pretty thorough system. Also good is that they were quick issuing my completion certificate.

Excellent. It's worth more than they charge especially good is the email response team that never seemed to miss a beat. I've taught before so I'd say I had fair knowledge of the classroom already, but this got my head back into it and gave me pointers on how to use different games and tech etc.
