Reassuring & exciting

If your native in english this was a great refresher. When the time came where you thought you would get to somthing you dont understand, you were taught in a way to remind you of when you were taught in school, or there would be mini quizzes that make you have fun relearning it. Though, you do wish there were more of those mini quizzes in the thmo make those lengthy ones more fun.
There are a lot of times in the lessons where when you are reminded of somthing that you find natural to you , your taken a little deeper. Sometimes I would imagine teaching what you see in the course because its played out in such a fun way. If your given somthing you dont remember , dont worry it will comeback to you. The examples given in the course confuse you at times , but remember that half the fun of figuring it out .

What would you improve about this program?
More of the mini quizzes in the lessons would be more thoughtful for those longer units

Fantastic course

A very affordable course, especially for the value it offers. Talk about bang for the buck! The TEFL Academy offers top-notch support with a staff always there to assist you, on work days of course. Course materials and lessons are of high quality and the 3 assignments are challenging enough to be the highlights of the course. To be honest, I had already landed a job when I enrolled, therefore I can't really assess their helpfulness in guiding me towards a job. But I already received an email including links to their job board and other great job boards, thus they seem promising in this regard too. Overall, I was impressed with the affordability and quality of The TEFL Academy's Online Level 5 Course and highly recommend it to anyone looking to get TEFL certified.

What would you improve about this program?
Correct some spelling mistakes here and there but not a big deal.

My online TEFL course experience

Being a rusty 42 year old busy mum of 2 , I hesitatingly signed up for TEFL Course(168 hour course. I had always wanted to pursue a teaching career but never got round to it. We were given six months to complete the course . It was extremely convenient to be able to this course from home . The online course content was tailor made and specific. i found myself growing as I progressed through the course. It was well structured ,progressive and easy to understand . I enjoyed the end of unit tests, they helped to consolidate my understanding. Assignments were always timeously marked and detailed feedback was given
The support system was excellent. Whenever , I logged a query I was attended to effectively and almost immediately.

What would you improve about this program?
I would add more information on actual lessons for online teaching and face to face teaching.So that students can start their career feeling more equipped.

Level 5 TEFL Course Review

I have completed this course within a month. It was challenging in a good way, and I have learnt a lot. I'm not a native English speaker. However, I found it very clear and easy to understand. This course contains so much valuable information. I really feel I can start my teaching journey. I'm now able to develop my own lesson plans to teach the four main skills and also know how to choose the best activities for each stage based on my students age and interests. I can also pick the right authentic materials for students and choose a topic which sounds interesting for them. This course provided me with information about how manage the class and understand the students behavior and needs. I'm very excited to start applying for jobs. I really would like to teach in Dubai. Wish me luck!!!

What would you improve about this program?
I would improve the assignments instructions. There is so much repetition in the instructions.

My review

The course was detailed and interesting. It was challenging in places but examples made it easy to understand. The content was current and easy to follow. Support was provided when needed and the ability to extend the course was great. I would have like more practical activities which could be used in class but the theory was very valuable. The content was clearly laid out and easy to follow and the website was rays to navigate. I would and have recommended this course to others as I think with the discount it is good value for money. I feel that even though I am already working overseas it would support my future career in teaching. I am interest to see what support it provides now that I have completed the course. Job support would be greatly appreciated.

What would you improve about this program?
I would include more practical activities like quizez and more activities that you can do in class.

Easy to follow course

This online course was easy to follow and comprehensive. By spending as much or as little time as necessary on each unit I found my time was spent efficiently because concepts I was already familiar with could be covered quickly. The work required to progress through the course ensures you don't get lazy but isn't too challenging. The assignments required for completion of the course were much more detailed, providing ideal preparation for actually teaching classes in the future. Lots of good feedback was returned with the marked assignments which I found extremely helpful in understanding what is required to teach well. The time allowed for access of the course is ample in my opinion. Also provided are lots of links for further reading and professional resources, job sites, etc.

What would you improve about this program?
I might improve the course navigation, even though it was perfectly adequate could have been slightly slicker.

ONLINE TEFL for Business and Travel

I have just completed the Level 5 TEFL Course (168 hrs) certification.
The online course was great as I managed my time to fit it into my very full working life. The stages were easy to follow and the units and assignments well positioned.

I started this as a referral by my son now living in Asia. Having a value I can take with me when visiting my grandson by being able to teach English as I stay for sometimes 2 months, is exciting for me.
And I know that there are private clients already waiting.

My main focus however is to be a language mediator between trade negotiations as this is my career. To enable business colleagues to better negotiate where English is a foreign second language is where my focus is.

The assignments really challenged me in creativity and knowing my audience.
The short tests at the end of each unit were fun.

I highly recommend this as a confidence builder - by being able to succeed in studying during my mid fifties having last studied in my twenties has been a great experience.
Having this platform to initiate myself made it easy and not as daunting as I feared.

So I haven’t started teaching yet but this has been a well thought out goal with a plan.
And now I’m certified.

What would you improve about this program?
Sometimes the tech when using google chrome did not allow for uploading of unit documents. As an online system, this should be available.

Very Happy Student

I have not studied anything for about 15 years so was a little daunted when embarking on the Tefl Journey. Once I stated the course however all of my fears went away. Whilst challenging at times, the course gave me all of the necessary tools and knowledge to begin my new journey in EFL teaching. The layout of the online course is easy to navigate and the assistance is always there if needed. The assignments were challenging at times and really put me into a situation that I am likely to face when in a teaching role. The feedback to the assignments was amazing and left me knowing exactly what I did well, and what I could have done differently or better. I would recommend this course to anyone looking to complete a TEFL accreditation in the future.

What would you improve about this program?
The time to have assignments marked and also to receive the completion certificate could be improved slightly.
