You Won't Regret it!

I'm so glad I chose to do this course (Level 5 TEFL online) as it is a truly informative and rigorous learning experience. This academy is recognised globally which gives me comfort knowing that I should definitely find a job with this qualification under my belt. If you're thinking about doing this program but are worried that you don't have enough time or discipline, just know that I had the same concerns but managed to do it while working 5-6 days a week. You won't regret having an extra qualification!

What would you improve about this program?
I think I would've benefitted from more helpful videos as there is a limited number of them. Because to study online without any physical people helping you can be a challenge and maybe some more explanatory and personable videos would help the next person.

My experience learning online

I struggle to be motivated to study online and I get distracted easily, the tefl course motivates you and makes you want to learn, not only because their work is interesting that they are teaching but also because there is something to look forward to at the end of your course which makes you want to work that much harder and it makes you want to finish your course sooner whether you are going to teach online or go overseas, it is an amazing course to do and provides so many different opportunities.

What would you improve about this program?
I would not do much to improve this program as I found it very easy to operate and I found the work not too difficult but not too easy so it was a challenge still

My Journey to becoming an online English teacher

This course was the first step to becoming an online English teacher. I was nervous to get started as I had not done an academic course for a couple years but the instructional videos along with the course content made it very managable and very rewarding. The tests provided after every part were relevant and challenging enough to test my knowledge of the course material and prepared me with enough knowledge in order to complete the assignment.

I definitely reccommend this course and I look forward to continuing my online teaching journey.

What would you improve about this program?
I would poissibly add some more video and practical examples from actual online classes.

My experience with the TEFL Academy

My experience with the TEFL Academy UK was an absolute pleasure. The modules covered everything that I possibly could ever need when teaching as well as providing me with further resources. The after module tests were very helpful to ensure that the knowledge was crystallized and provided me with further examples as well. The assignments were well explained and thought out - they challenged me to think outside of the box and showed me what to expect when I teach. This course left nothing out and I would highly recommend it.

What would you improve about this program?
Overall the course was brilliant but one thing I would improve about the online aspect is adding in a practical section.

The TEFL Academy

I enjoyed the whole process flow of the online TEFL course offered. The course has good structure, within 24 hours ticket support system, business hour live-chat customer service. I felt that one of the minor downsides is that some of the link to additional learning materials are not working as intended. This is not a real problem for me as it gives me the opportunity to self-sourcing relevant materials on my own. All in all, I have a positive experience throughout the entire process. Do note that this is also an accredited programme from UK & US and not for people who wanted "low cost, fast result". The key here is that it's a good value for money online course.

What was the most nerve-racking moment and how did you overcome it?
There are times that I have completely no idea of what was expected from me for the 2 assignments. The within 24 hours ticket-based support has helped me get through it in the first round of submission and the maker's feedback gave me a better idea on how to close the passing gap.

Great Experience

I have wanted to do a TEFL course for a long time. I did my research and decided the TEFL Academy Online Level 5 was the course for me as it meets my needs! It has exellent teaching, it is easy to understand and very in depth, particularly the grammar section. I loved the addition of an extra course afterwards which benefits my teaching further. I am excited to use my online teaching skills learnt from this course. I can't wait to use what I learnt abroad! I am very happy with my experience. Thankyou!

What would you improve about this program?
I would perhaps make the assignments clearer as at times I thought my assignment was quite good but the resukt wasn't always as good as I expected.

Good way to augment your training

I was already working as a teacher when I decided to take this course. I had wished I had gotten a certificate like this sooner because I learned some very useful things I could readily implement into my classes. Not to mention it would have given a boost to my resume. Having a some of the background knowledge and theoretical understanding of teaching methodology was helpful as well. I also really appreciate the job search support they offer after you finish the course. I will use the resources to look for jobs!

What would you improve about this program?
More interactive components that focus on actionable lessons would be better.

Would definitely recommend

I had no idea what I got myself into, but I am so glad I did my course with them. The material covers so much more than what I could have expected! I would have like more videos with examples, but overall a great learning journey! There are so many quick and cheap courses available out there, but I can see the difference between a proper accredited course like this one and a quick course. This course equips you in a way no quick cheap one could do. I really learnt so much and can't wait to start a new chapter in my life!

What would you improve about this program?
I would have liked it if there were video examples as part of the course, sometimes it is hard to get the overall picture from just text.
