Online Level 5 TEFL course

This course was one of the best I've ever had! I enjoyed it very much, even though I have to admit for me it wasn't easy, because I have no theoretical background and no experience in teaching. But I took it as a challenge and I succeeded! The course is very well designed, easy to understand, it gives a lot of useful information and materials and the feedbacks received from those evaluating the papers are useful and constructive. I learned a lot during this course and I recommend it to anyone wanting to teach English or just to develop themselves in this field.

Level 5 TEFL Course

I found this course extremely exciting and informative. It was especially easy to follow with support available at my fingertips anytime. I found it simple to navigate and referencing available was superb. I still use the referencing daily for my lesson planning. The course was easy to use by did definitely test my brainpower. It educated me in a lot of things I thought i knew. Such a great course to add to my resume. I recommend it to anyone whether they wish to teach or just update their own english teachers knowledge.

Pros
  • Easy to navigate the course
  • Very Insigtful into the teaching of the English Language
  • Great 'test your knowledge' as you go along
Cons
  • Must have windows 10+ for better connectvity
  • Must have a reliable wi-fi connection

My TEFL 5 online course experience

When I decided to enroll in the TEFL 5 online course I didn't imagine that it would be so interesting and it was a compelling experience, too. The Units were full of creative and engaging activities and they helped me a lot with the assignments later on. When it comes to the tests, they were precisely and clearly constructed and the most important things were examined. The assignments were very helpful and I think they will be very useful in every aspect of my online teaching career and I will use them in almost every class. Overall, I gained an experience and knowledge that I will convey to my future students, regardless their age and level.

Pros
  • Very useful exercises and activities
  • Creative and helpful videos
  • Assignments and lesson plans that will be used in everyday work
Cons
  • Not communicating to the mentors
  • No real contact to the TEFL teachers
  • More contact to the other students

Amazing learning experience

The programme is absolutely amazing. When I took the programme I had other commitments, so I had to opt for online learning, however, the experience was just as informative and I feel it prepares you well for the working world. I would definitely recommend it to someone who does not have time to attend in-person classes, because you can create your own study timetable and you are given 6 months to complete the programme which is more than enough time. Even if you do not manage to finish within the given 6 months, you have the option to extend your enrollment by a month, or by three months.

Pros
  • flexible schedule
  • simple user interface
  • covers all aspects of teaching ESL students
Cons
  • may feel a bit disconnected from the tutors

Outstanding and very rewarding

The TEFL Academy online course is perfect for both teachers wanting to improve their skills and learn new teaching methods and for English language lovers who would like to take on the challenge to become an English teacher. All information is offered in a very clear way, with a great variety of practical examples and useful activities. Assignments are extremely interesting and very target oriented, and can easily be put in practice during actual future teaching activities. Accessible also through mobile, it offers total flexibility insofar studying times are concerned, a great plus for professionals with a busy schedule. I loved every moment of this beautiful journey!

Pros
  • Very well structured
  • Great emphasis on praxis
  • Plenty of innovative ideas
Cons
  • None!

A course essential for teachers

I initially decided to follow this TEFL course because I had considered teaching English to be an ideal job for me but was not completely sure about pursuing this career.
I realize now however that it has been a wonderful choice to complete this course which has enriched me both as a person and as a student regardless of the great teaching career one can potentially pursue having completed the course.
The tools made available to the student during the course are exceptional and I have nothing but praise for this wonderful course which I believe to be essential for any teacher.

Pros
  • Stellar explanations during the course.
  • Interactive activities during the course.
  • Clear and precise feedback from assignments.

Amazing experience

Learning Tefl through The Tefl Academy was an amazing experience! I have learned so many new things. The instructions are clear, the information up-to-date and the assigments challenging enough to make you think outside the box. The Tefl Academy course has inspired me and ignighted a long-dormant fire for teaching inside of me. I have a new-found love for teaching and making a difference in the lives of others. With my new qualification i wish to move abroad and teach adults and young learners. Absolutely recommended course for anyone wanting to teach in EFL/ESL

Pros
  • Clear and concise instructions
  • Wealth of information
  • Challenging to think outside the box

Useful content presented in a simple way

Overall, the course was great. I had previously taught English in China without a certificate, however, I have learnt so much useful information with the TEFL Academy Level 5 program that I feel could have immensely improved my experience there. The content is informative and engaging. That said, I think the assignments were a bit tedious and requires a lot more planning and time than I had anticipated. However, once completed, lesson planning becomes a breeze. If you’re considering getting a TEFL certificate, choose the TEFL Academy. You won’t regret it!

Pros
  • Useful content
  • Engaging
Cons
  • Tedious assignments
