The best experience I've ever had

It was the best experience I've ever had. Thankful for everything. Currently waiting for my physical diploma to start my teaching journey. Easy-to-manage e-learning, professionally written themes, and curriculum. As this course is online, I wanted to finish it in a short time and succeed in one month. I really appreciate the effort that this course gave. Hope to get the perfect teaching job abroad with this diploma. I'm proud to be a TEFL Academy graduate, and I will continue to support this project in the future.

If you did this all over again, what's one thing you would change?
I would be more patient with myself and give time for better communication and understanding.
Pros
  • Personal growth
  • Teaching opportunities
  • Easy access
Cons
  • Online is less comfortable for sharing things
  • Alone time with facing difficulties
  • Sometimes you lack enthusiasm

Challenging for me but worth it

I found the TEFL course challenging for me. It's been a while since I studied and did coursework like this before. Once I got into it it worked out well for me and i managed to do it. I am now qualified and now preparing myself to be ready to teach online with platforms like preply to begin with.. I will be moving to Vietnam soon so this will provide me a great opportunity for a new and exciting future. I highly recommend starting this leveln5 course even if it's been many years since you have studied

What was the most nerve-racking moment and how did you overcome it?
I would say was writing essays again after many years of not being in school
Pros
  • Challenging
  • Excitement for the future
Cons
  • Essays

The experience was amazing

Enrolling in The TEFL Academy’s online course was one of the best decisions I made as an aspiring English teacher. This comprehensive, well-structured program not only equipped me with the skills needed to thrive in the classroom but also offered flexibility and support that made the learning process enjoyable. For anyone considering a TEFL certification, I wholeheartedly recommend this course as a valuable investment in their teaching journey.The course’s curriculum stands out for its depth and practicality. Modules cover essential topics such as lesson planning, grammar fundamentals, classroom management, and teaching methodologies, ensuring a balanced blend of theory and real-world application. What impressed me most was how each unit built logically on the previous one, gradually enhancing my confidence. The grammar section, often daunting for many, was broken into digestible segments with clear examples, making even complex concepts accessible. Assignments mirrored real teaching scenarios, such as designing a lesson plan for diverse learners, which prepared me to adapt to varied classroom environments. The inclusion of multimedia resources, like video demonstrations of teaching techniques, further enriched the learning experience.

What was the most nerve-racking moment and how did you overcome it?
The most nerve wrecking was when i had failed my assignment twice and had one last chance. The stressful part was waiting to whether i passed my last attempt or not.
Pros
  • Flexible
  • Affordable
  • Engaging
Cons
  • No face to face classes
  • Limited time

Well Structured Course

The course was an excellent way to improve skills and gain more knowledge as a teacher. It has definitely added value to my portfolio. I would highly recommend teachers or anyone who would like to pursue teaching to engage in this course, it is easy to work through especially with the efficient support of tutors. The course has a good balance between written information, examples and videos to support each lesson. The assignments are challenging but the markers are helpful with the feedback they provide.

What would you improve about this program?
I would add videos of actual online lessons between teacher and student to get insight on how it works.
Pros
  • Easy to follow.
  • Test your knowledge after each lesson.
  • Written information and videos
Cons
  • Some pages were all written information.
  • Loadshedding unable to access
  • Required videos of actual lessons already conducted

Straightforward and useful!

I found navigating this course very easy and I was able to learn some interesting things about the English language along the way. The assignments had very clear instructions and I received my feedback very quickly. I was working alongside my studies and I found it really useful to be able to set my own pace when studying, which actually meant that I was able to complete the course relatively quickly. I would definitely recommend it to those who are looking to do an online TEFL course as it provides useful links that you can access to help facilitate your learning.

Great TEFL opportunity with clear and accessible guidance

I chose this program because I needed to complete the course and get a TEFL certificate as quickly as possible. The structure of the program is very clear and easy to understand. I really appreciated the flexibility to study at my own pace. Each unit is broken down into manageable sections, with interactive elements that make learning more engaging. I believe it’s a great course even for someone just starting their teaching journey.

There were a few times when I needed assistance, and I received help very quickly. I could genuinely feel that the support team cares about students and is committed to making the experience as smooth as possible, which I greatly appreciated.

Overall, it was a smooth, supportive, and valuable learning experience.

The best investment

I didn’t have high expectations when I first started the course, but I was genuinely surprised by how well-structured the content was and how supportive the tutors were throughout. They were incredibly helpful—even during the weekends—and always available to answer questions. The course also provided loads of resources and useful links to support the learning process. Overall, it added real value to my development and gave me a strong boost in confidence to pursue a career I love, thanks to The TEFL Academy!
