I had a great experience with the Maximo Nivel Online TEFL Course. I completed it in 3 months and I thought the content was engaging and excellent at teaching lesson planning. I enjoyed all of the classroom observation exercises and my favorite parts were writing the grammar paper and the online practical teaching with students from Peru, Costa Rica, and Guatemala.

The biggest reason I would recommend this online course is because you receive an advisor and up to 10 hours of "1 on 1" support. Having a live person to connect to while completing a self-paced online course was EVERYTHING and helped keep me motivated to keep going and finish the course. Also, having Sean there was really invaluable during the practical teaching segment, when I was feeling anxious and needed the most support, coaching, and feedback.

I very much enjoyed completing my TEFL course with Maximo Nivel. There are many providers out there, but this is simply one of the best. Right from the start, I was thoroughly impressed with the support provided by Maximo. The administration was faultless and I was very impressed with the quality of the on-line teaching materials. Feedback on-line is prompt and helpful and I felt well prepared for my practical experience in Antigua. The support whilst teaching was excellent and I was so impressed with the professionalism of both Claudia and Sean as tutors. They have both given me so much good advice and prepared me well for teaching English both on-line and abroad. Thank you to the whole team!

The online course was engaging and thorough, and I feel truly prepared me to start teaching. I had to create a variety of different lesson plans and even write a research paper on a grammar topic. I was able to pace myself and complete the work in the evenings after my full-time job.

As a math teacher, there is a lot that was transferable from my experience, and there was even more that I needed to unlearn. My trainer, Sean, was very patient and helpful, as I navigated this new discipline. He gave me actionable feedback and helped me to improve after each lesson I taught during my practical teaching experience.

I recently completed my TEFL course and I have to say, it was an amazing experience from start to finish. The content was well-structured and covered everything I needed to feel confident in the classroom—from grammar and lesson planning to classroom management and teaching strategies.

What really made the course stand out, though, was my tutor. He was incredibly supportive, always available to answer questions, and continued to offer guidance even after I completed the course. I felt genuinely encouraged throughout the process.

This course gave me the foundation I needed and more. I would highly recommend it to anyone thinking of teaching English abroad or online!

I did Maximo Nivel's course online and found this to be a very comprehensive and at times challenging program. It is well-organized and structured and I received a good foundation to do the work. There is homework and exams along the way that keep you on track. There are lots of examples and helpful videos to help with the learning process. Sean was very helpful and gave me valuable feedback. He was very nice to work with. This is definitely the way to go if you want to receive excellent TEFL training.

I completed my online TEFL course a few days ago and I can confidently say it was an outstanding learning experience! A huge thank you to my trainer, Sean Barter, whose patience and expertise made the difficult parts of the course easier to comprehend. Sean was always available to give feedback, support and answer questions. I chose this course because it offered 5 hours of practical teaching, 10 hours of coaching via zoom, detailed ESL modules and so much more! I didn`t know if I had made a right decision or not, when I signed up, but as soon as I opened the first module I was pleasantly surprised- it turned out the course was informative and engaging, covering all aspects of teaching English as a foreign language and exceeding my expectation. I would highly recommend it to anyone considering a TEFL course!

Before choosing Maximo Nivel, I did a lot of research into different TEFL programs. It was very important to me that I felt fully prepared by the end of the course, and Maximo Nivel offered a thorough, challenging program.

The deciding factor for me was that Maximo Nivel is the only online TEFL course I found that includes a student teaching practicum. That experience was incredibly valuable and helped me feel much more prepared.

The course also includes 10 hours of tutoring with your TEFL trainer, plus consistent support throughout the practicum and even into the job search phase. I was extremely nervous going into the practicum, but my trainer, Sean Barter, was incredibly patient and encouraging.

The course modules are locked in sequence, so you can’t skip around or preview upcoming content. At times, I found that information from later modules would’ve been helpful for earlier assignments—but I managed to work through it. Some feedback on assignments can be a bit limited or confusing unless you take advantage of the tutoring sessions (which I didn’t), so I’d definitely recommend using them.

Overall, I came away with a solid grasp of the material, and from what I’ve seen of other online TEFL courses, Maximo Nivel’s program is definitely superior. I’d recommend it to anyone who values hands-on experience and wants to feel truly prepared to teach.

I highly recommend the Maximo Nivel online TEFL Course for everyone who wishes to acquire the required knowledge to teach English as a Foreign/Second Language. The theoretical part empowered me with teaching skills while teaching an online class - as part of the practical teaching – made me feel really confident! Moreover, the live trainer Mr. Barter significantly contributed to my upskilling related to my current role as an online English teacher, helped me to acquire digital skills and supported me to find a job!
