Tesol certification

I truly enjoyed doing the TESOL certification . It was helpful, informative and well structured,
The videos were easy to understand and the material well written.
Some of the concepts I learned it at college because I studied English and teaching methodologies , but been a ESL teacher abroad is different than teaching people from my own culture and mother tongue, so I really appreciated the tips, modules and content .
Most important for me, I was able to study on my own pace .
Great ideas, resources and methodology through the course, I am already using them with my students and I can see their excitement!

What would you improve about this program?
I would have liked to have a mentor or someone to skype with, but at the same time, it wasnt that difficult, so i guess is not really need it.

TESOL Certificate Program

Thank you Uni-Prep staff for the wonderful TESOL program! It was incredibly informative and easy to use. Since I am a visual learner, the videos were especially educational and helpful. This is my second year teaching English abroad in China, and though I learned a lot through my first year of teaching to younger students, having a TESOL certificate has helped me find a better job teaching English to college students. I couldn't have done it without the Uni-Prep course!

What would you improve about this program?
I think it would be helpful to have the course arranged so people watch the videos first and then do the readings, so it would further enforce the information.

Excellent Course

I am writing this review because it was so fun taking this course. I learnt a lot of things that I had forgotten since learning them in school. I believe this will ultimately lead to me getting a job overseas. So if you or anybody you know wants to travel and work abroad, I highly recommend taking this program as it will get you to where you want to be faster. I plan to travel a month from now. Thanks!

Great Course! Informative and fun!

Hello everyone, I just completed my uni-prep online TESOL Diploma and literally loved everyone minute of it! The course material was super informative and covered some very interesting and useful topics. The course assignments really made you apply what you learned in the unit readings and did a good job preparing you for the real thing! You are given lots of time for the quizzes which not too difficult. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone who plans teaching English as a second language!

What would you improve about this program?
No Comment, the course is very very organized and put together!

Great resource, great value!

I really enjoyed being able to complete this course in my own time. I work full time and I can´t take several weeks away from work at this time to study. This was the perfect option for me in terms of the cost and availabity. I used to work in Spain as an ESL assistant and although I wanted to find work teaching, it was difficult to look for work without being certified. Now, I have much more confidence and I feel prepared to venture abroad once more and look for work on my own terms.

loved that it is self paced

I really enjoyed the course, I loved how thorough the information was through videos and reading. I liked how it gave you two times to take the quiz, it gave me more time to re-study the questions I got incorrect, and more importantly I liked how it is self paced because I needed to get my certificate quick since I am already currently living in Vietnam and want to get a job asap. The price was also great compared to some others I came across, it was a no-brainer to choose UNI-Prep, I definitely recommend them!

Only thing I can think of is when you go over your quiz review and tells you which questions you got incorrect that they can also let you know the correct answer at the end

Very well structured course

The readings were honest and well put together, making studying much easier. The only advice I would give is to have more examples of putting together lessons. The course is done at the student's pace. You can rush through it, but you will not have digested in the information you are learning. My advice would be to take notes on the videos and readings and then take the test. Every time you go to take another test, you should review previous notes to refresh your memory. This process will help you consolidate the information and put in in long-term memory.

I thoroughly enjoyed this academic experience and would take an online course again with them. Thank you Uni-Prep for this certification course.

What would you improve about this program?
More examples of implementing curriculum.

TESOL

I have been an English teacher for three years and I found this program to be both very helpful as well as informative. I have already integrated what I 've learned into my classes to great effect. I found the cost to be affordable and I like that you can re-take the tests. I mostly teach speaking and that area provided the greatest benefit to me. However I also learned a lot about keeping my students motivated as well as happy and fostering a productive learning environment.

What would you improve about this program?
Some of the questions were a little hard to find the correct answer to as they were not mentioned in the readings.

Awesome quick experience

Super excited to get my certification so quickly. You can work at your own pace the entire time so you can finish it as soon as you need to. I leave for Europe in three weeks and needed to get my certification asap so I can start teaching as soon as possible, now I can. The content was easy to obtain and the quizzes were not too difficult if you read the content. The videos weren't necessary to watch, the readings gave you all the information you need.

Great program!

This was a great program, taking cost and content into consideration. I wanted something I could do at my own pace...it even had a supervised element, which is amazing because most programs at this price point don't allow for this! Take advantage! For all of you looking for the drawbacks of this program, the only thing I can say is communication is slightly delayed. If you write an email to the program, you can expect an email back in about one week or so. But, overall, I was very satisfied with my experience! Highly recommend!

What would you improve about this program?
Faster correspondence in emailing/communication.
