I taught English for 3+ years, both in the U.S. and abroad. Even though I have all this experience, I enrolled in a TEFL class because I sometimes felt confused about lesson planning and didn't know how to explain certain concepts to my students. I'm so happy that I took this course! My only regret is not taking it sooner. I learned so many helpful concepts that will improve my performance as a teacher. I highly recommend this class for anyone who wants to become a better teacher. It is impossible to take this class without learning something new :)

The TEFL Online Level 5 Course was a great experience. I enjoyed being able to see how there are different ways to teach English to others, whether it being to a family member or a foreigner.

It was interesting for me to see how English is taught differently internationally and how we were taught English in school (as I am from South Africa). It was an eye opener and I learnt so much more.

I am thankful I had the opportunity to do this course and make use of it in the future to come, to make my travelling abroad dreams come true.

Completing the TEFL course with the TEFL Academy is one of the best decisions I have made! Completing the cousre online was very user friendly and easy to navigate. The course content was appropriate and very easy to understand which was wondeful as I do not have a teaching degree.
The TEFL Academy was always there to answer promptly any questions and provided assistance on CV layout, cover letters and job sources.
I'd definitely recommend that if you are looking to complete the TEFL course, you complete it through them.

I have learnt so much by studying at the TEFL Academy. The most important thing that came out of it though (apart from my certificate!) was the confidence that the course has given me to teach English. I felt unsure about what the next stage in my life would be, and thanks to the TEFL Academy I now have so many plans to travel and teach! I am so excited for the future and I very strongly recommend this course to anyone who is looking for a new adventure in their lives. Where will I go next? I have so many options to choose from, but one thing is for certain and that is that the future is bright.

I enjoyed doing the course because I was able to do it at my own time and pace. The platform is easy to navigate, and the one time I had an issue with the course content it was promptly attended to. I learned a lot in terms of what is required of an EFL teacher; and the assignments were insightful and challenging, and allowed me to practise the planning that is required for delivering lessons. A lot of seful resources and materials are provided. Overall, I had a pleasant experience, and now look forward to actual teaching.

I have just completed the online level 5 TEFL course. I found the program well designed and easy to navigate through. It took me 3 months to complete it during which not once I felt bored or disengaged. The units are planned well with interactive activities throughout and interesting end of unit assessments. The assignments are tough but necessary to put what’s been taught into practice. It was the perfect course to do during lockdown as it will hopefully open new opportunities for me. The knowledge acquired during the course is extensive: teaching techniques, lesson planning, vocabulary selection and so on. I now feel ready to start my teaching career.

Obviously, the value you get from courses like this depends on how much effort you're willing to put into studying. This course provides everything you need to know, exercises and provides ample pointers for further reading. The assignments are excellent and really force you to engage with the subject. The platform is great , the support isn't the fastest but the course is structured in such a way that support is rarely if ever needed. Overall I'd wholeheartedly recommend this course for those looking for online TEFL courses

If you want to get going in the world of teaching English as a foreign language, then The TEFL Academy is definitely the place to start. You can immediately start working towards your TEFL qualification and start teaching as soon as you've completed the certification. Their online system is great with lots of relevant content and informative videos. If for some reason you get stuck there is also excellent support. The feedback on the assignments are really good and the assessors give lost of detail. Can't recommend them enough!
