Highly Recommended For Aspiring TEFL Teachers

I feel that by doing the Level 5 TEFL course via The TEFL Academy I have learnt a lot about the way you can teach learners speaking, writing, reading and listening activities. The course makes it clear on the roles and responsibilities that I will have as a TEFL teacher. However, if i could recommend an improvement, it would be that the course could help a bit more with jobs, as on the websites that The TEFL Academy recommended to me, the jobs weren't very active. Overall I do recommend it for aspiring TEFL teachers because doing this course has allowed me to understand that I want to be a TEFL teacher as a long-term career.

If you did this all over again, what's one thing you would change?
If I did it all over again, I would change that I would do this course earlier on in my life, as I would recommend to students who are anxious in doing the course to just do the course because you will have no regrets.
Pros
  • The course was easy to follow and well organised.
  • The course has prepared me to work in real-life settings as a TEFL teacher.
  • The support for the course was very efficient, in case I had any questions.
Cons
  • I would like more support for jobs like websites that were active.
  • I would like the course to have more practical in a real-life setting, as it was very theoretical.
  • I found some units a lot easier than others, so if there was more of a balance of difficulties for each unit.

Excellent

Very impressed! Service is great from the Admin, Support and Tutor side. Fast replies and they go the extra mile to make you feel comfortable when you need explaining. The whole system just works perfectly! You won’t regret making this choice for your next step in your career! It is brilliant and enjoyable I really recommend it for anyone thinking about going to do it just go for it you won’t regret it. You will feel a sense of accomplishment after completing it and enjoy it too. I had an excellent experience at The TEFL Academy. The course was comprehensive and well-structured, covering all the essential aspects of teaching English as a foreign language. The instructors were knowledgeable and supportive, providing valuable feedback and practical insights. The online platform was user-friendly, making it easy to access materials and complete assignments at my own pace.

What was the most nerve-racking moment and how did you overcome it?
Doing assignments, but with the help of the tutors they weren’t as nerve racking
Pros
  • English improved
  • Learning more
  • Getting help
Cons
  • Waiting time
  • Modules can’t be unlocked
  • Nothing else

Good course

I wanted something to do to keep my mind active and to give myself a way of earning part-time. For me the ability to undertake this course, which was level 5, online was crucial for me now that my mobility is not so good. This training pushed me out of my comfort zone since my previous degrees have been in a scientific subject but there was always ample support there to help me when I needed it.

My intention now is to look for part-time online 1 to 1 teaching to help those who are starting off in University in England in scientific and engineering subjects, and after this course I feel fully confident in being able to do so.

A great course

The TEFL course was a great choice for me. It was enjoyable and well-structured. Easy to go though. I really enjoyed the end-of-chapter tests, I found them to be very helpful in consolidating what was learned. And all the videos helped break the monotony of the course.
I am now certified to teach and I am so glad I did the course. The only thing I have a complaint for is the price for extending the course in case one doesn't finish on time. Other than that, I have been very happy and I would recommend the course to anyone.

Pros
  • engaging,
  • well structured
  • opportunities

I made the right decision! Read to know why

Signing up for a programme sounds quite easy but when it comes to choosing the right academy for yourself which works covering all your aspects perfectly that too online is definitely a job. I was recommended The TEFL Academy by a fellow ESL Teacher and trust me it was the right choice. Unlike other academies which provide the courses of same niche.
The TEFL Academy got good on these points:
1) the course content is greatly made and simplified.
2) there were quiz at the end of all units and you definitely know how helpful they work with learning.
3) assignments were in between of units which was quite good because it helped with improving your learning process and tutors corrected with encouragement.
4) one of the best factors were the assignments were quite well explained on how to perform them on the website and live tutor sessions were available on youtube as well. So no need spend time understanding how to actually do this or that.
5) the student support, now be it tutor support, admin support or queries they were all answered at the top most property unlike I have seen in other online learning platforms where they take ages.
6) here comes the best part, when you are all done and have completed the course, The TEFL Academy helps you with cv to helping you find the right job for you.
Overall I had my best experience and as an alumni I will definitely RECOMMEND!
The TEFL Academy for future aspirants.

Pros
  • Content was quite easy to understand and useful as well
  • Student support was available at top most priority
  • Post completion support with CV making to getting you chose the right path for you is available
Cons
  • Lack on updates on a few platforms
  • As a non native speaker there are less opportunities than a native speaker
  • None

You can check your progress and use a lot of great sources of information which are included in this course. They will be essential for you if you want to develop yourself as a teacher after completing the course. There are a lot of interesting tests. Even if you pass it well you can always check yourself again. You have some attempts. This Academy has a big choice of different courses.

Pros

  • Useful materials
  • Interesting tests
Cons
  • Assessments can be checked within 5 working days
