Clear, Practical and Well-Organized!

I thoroughly enjoyed The TEFL Academy's Level 5 Online TEFL Course! It was well organized and packed with practical information. The course covers all the skills you will require for teaching English and has excellent teaching tips, materials, and ideas for the classroom. I particularly found the real-life teaching scenarios, downloadable resources, and varied assignments helpful. Overall, I’d say it’s a fantastic course for anyone wanting to boost their teaching skills and feel more confident as an English teacher!

Learning with TEFL Academy

The learning modules were well done. The quizzes and tests made sense. If you are a note taker- you will fill notebooks full! Make sure to pace yourself. Know your limits and do not rush through this. I had to pay for an extension as I had not paced myself well - after getting sick and did not study for a full month. Comprehensive, and the IT and Student departments get back to you quickly if there is an issue. I highly recommend this company. Their price point and materials were great. Good luck

What would you improve about this program?
I would re-write the assignment submission and the handbook. They were separate, but were pieced out in ways they could have been done together. The wording is a bit confusing. The assignment templates were just OK.

Comprehensive yet affordable TEFL course

I obtained the Level 5 TEFL Diploma from the TEFL Academy and was very impressed with the entire experience. The course material was comprehensive enough to give me the confidence to start applying for online TEFL positions immediately upon obtaining my certificate. The platform was easy to navigate, all the instructions were clear and the support staff were helpful. The assessments were challenging and served to prepare me for future classroom experiences. I highly recommend this course, as it provides a solid foundation for TEFL positions without costing a fortune.

What would you improve about this program?
I would add more post-course job-seeking support.
Pros
  • Solidly structured curriculum
  • Highly relevant study material
  • Prompt, valuable feedback on assignments
Cons
  • Lack of job-seeking support

Overall, I found the experience both enriching and rewarding, and I would highly recommend this course to anyone looking to further their skills and qualifications in a flexible, online format.

If you did this all over again, what's one thing you would change?
I would do it faster

By being flexible, learners have a wide range of opportunities to do assessments and also to watch videos. One of the defining features of the academy is their willingness to help others, with a prepared group of workers always on hand. Additionally, the reviews of the writen work are clear, concise, and understandable, which help students grow. I am very happy to have taken this course and excited to see where it will lead me in my professional life.

Teaching is more than education - it's a lifestyle

Through the TEFL course, I had the opportunity to explore a wide range of teaching methodologies, which allowed me to understand the different ways students learn and how to adapt my teaching style accordingly. I deepened my understanding of effective teaching techniques, from lesson planning and classroom management to engaging students through interactive and communicative approaches. Additionally, the course helped me significantly improve my own proficiency in the English language, while also equipping me with the tools to share my enthusiasm and passion for English in a clear, inspiring, and impactful way. This experience has greatly contributed to my growth as both a language learner and an aspiring teacher.
