Program Reviews

As much as I love my home in the beautiful Appalachian Mountains of the United States I have always had what some call 'itchy feet' and a wandering soul. I am always in anticipation of seeing other parts of the world and learning from what they have to offer. It is my belief that the more immersion you have to various environments and cultures in the world, the more you truly understand and appreciate it.

I saved my last semester of schooling to study abroad. If course, my scholarship would only accept certain locations so I simply asked, 'well, where can you send me?'.

So, I spontaneously started a journey to Botswana, Africa where some of the best friendships of my life were formed with amazing people from all over the world. I fell in love with the environment, the people, and entirely unexpectedly I feel in love with one person in particular half way around the world from where I was born.

Just over a year ago today, and after a lot of denial and pretending that we could go our separate ways like responsible adults at the end of my journey, we are still together 12,000 miles apart. We've gone through a lot of researching on what to do next to start our lives together, visa applications, work permits and all sorts of other delightful paperwork that makes you question if you even understand English at all or if the forms are in fact written in gibberish.

I took a lot of time researching TEFL companies looking for the most affordable, legitamized, accredited 120 hour course companies. After a lot of comparing, my boyfriend and I chose myTEFL because it offered a 120 hour online course that was affordable and had a job coordinator to help you after you completed the course.  The company offered me a student discount as a recent graduate and most importatly to us, allowed us to sign up with a 'buddy' program discount which helps you get placed together.  I am usually very wary to say I have recieved 'great customer service' from companies as it seems the whole world loves a good scam now a days but even I have to admit that every single person I have emailed or talked to from myTEFL blows my mind with how helpful, happy, and quick to respond they are. (Knock on wood, I know).

In about 2 months we completed the course and talked with our job coordinator, Tyler. Did we mention he is the man? So informative, chill and patient.  We are currently looking at Thailand and Taiwan and cannot wait to see what adventures the future holds.

Thank-you for opening new doors for us myTEFL.
Happy journeys and wander well!

My experience was excellent. I learn so much in this course that I can even describe how much it was helpful for me.

I will recommend to everyone who wants to become a teacher. This course is really worth it to give a try.

Thank you everyone who helped me make my dream come true!

I chose to get my TEFL qualification with MyTEFL mainly for the job placement. They have a network of partner schools around Asia, and help all their graduates to find suitable teaching placements which include work visas and great pay (about $2,000 per month).

As I came near to completing my 120 hour course, the team helped me to check visa requirements, prepare me for an online interview and secure a job in Taiwan. 2 months later and i'm about to fly out to begin my life abroad! Thanks MyTEFL

This TEFL course has really helped me to not only become a qualified teacher, but to also understand the industry which I've just entered.

It gave me a lot of insight into the different types of schools around the world, employment requirements and how much to charge for my teaching services.

I now feel like I have all I need to find a job, and teach with confidence. Definitely worth the money!

MyTEFL gave me a whole new perspective on teaching. I'm a little embarrassed to say now, but I thought teaching abroad was more about playing games and reading Cat in the Hat. Now I understand how much more to it there is, and it feels good that i'm now trained and prepared - though it did get a little dull after a few weeks of studying ha.

Hey everyone.

I enrolled in this course after seeing numerous reviews online, and thankfully I wasn't disappointed.

It wasn't as easy as I had expected, some of the lessons are pretty tricky to get your head around, but to be honest i'd say that's a good thing. For example, you don't want to be stood in front of a class trying to explain subject-verb agreements without practice beforehand.

For me, the course has been great, and i'd recommend it to anyone looking for an online TEFL certificate which actually helps you teach.

Hi!

This course was super handy, and I learnt so much more than I expected. Without it I'm not sure what I'd have done when I actually arrived in the classroom.

The grammar exercises were probably the most useful. There's a lot of terms, phrases and sentence structures which I simply wasn't aware of. I don't even want to imagine what it'd have been like if I had just walked into the classroom without this training. Nightmare.

myTEFL also helped place me in a school in Taiwan, and I'm currently loving it here. The city, mountains, people, food... it's just something else.

I'm also really thankful for the teaching skills and curriculum development modules... they've helped me turn dull lessons into fun activities. It's already making teaching way more interesting for me and the kids in my class.

10/10 for me.

I didn't really have the time or money to go for a teaching course with classroom experience, so I went the online route.

As it was so much cheaper than the courses with on-site classroom training, I was concerned it might just be hollow with nothing useful. However, I was completely wrong.

I learned a lot, picked up some great skills, and certainly benefited from its flexibility.

Would recommend it if you're in the same boat as me.

Really can't fault the course at all. Easy to work through each lesson, the software was very user friendly, and the staff went out of their way to make sure I was happy.

Not sure what else to say - if you're looking for a great TEFL course, here it is!

My dad bought this course for me as a present. I have to admit that it wasn't what I expected, nor what I wanted at the time.

However, after the first week I was hooked. There's a real sense of achievement with progressing through the course, completing exercises and hitting milestones.

I haven't tried any other courses like this before, so I can't compare it to other companies. All I can say is from my personal experience, this course was simple, easy to understand, and the customer service was always fast and friendly.

Have recommended it to my friends.
