Good Information

This program contains a lot of good information that native English speakers don't usually have to think about, because we just learned it as we learned to read, write and speak. It was good to review the grammar especially, as that is the foundation to understanding English. The other aspects of the course, like lesson layouts, activities, and platforms was helpful as well. As an already certified teacher, some information felt like review, while other information will be helpful in teaching English specifically.

Challenging but with Straightforward Instructions and Tutor Support.

I had been thinking about doing a TEFL for a while and then I broke my leg, which gave me a recovery window where I took this course. I found the videos easy to follow and engaging, yet the final module 'Teaching Online' was all text. Sometimes the text regarding assignments was split between two pages. But honestly there was a lot to these rubrics so I could see why. The actual content was good and informative. Tutor support was helpful and swift and featured great feedback. Only once did I need help to improve an assignment and the feedback led me to do this swiftly and effectively. It's a tricky course from whatever background you come from academically, not to be underestimated. But TEFL.org provide all the tools to qualify with a certificate, which can open opportunities for varied futures. Well worth the investment.

What would you improve about this program?
Just the text being across two pages on the layout of assignments so students have to click back through to the start of the specifications for assignments really. It was actually only a minor thing. Everything was really as it needed to be to learn the content.
Pros
  • Easy to follow
  • I managed to complete it.
  • Helpful tutor feedback and comments.
What other participants should know
  • Very achievable, but not to be underestimated either.

Great English teacher learning at TEFL Org!

I had a valuable experience with the 120-hour premier TEFL course.
It is a comprehensive and excellently organized course focusing on grammar, methodology, real life English lesson examples, guides to teaching large classes and online teaching.
All materials are explained clearly and thoroughly by highly professional tutors. Modules are diversified, well structured, and highly informative.
Each part of the course is designed to keep the teaching learner motivated.
It really gets you prepared to become an English language teacher!
Highly recommended :)

Amazing course

I had a very positive experience with The TEFL Org. The course was well structured, clear and easy to follow, with plenty of useful information about lesson planning, classroom management and teaching different types of students.
I especially appreciated the tutor feedback on my assignments. The comments were helpful and constructive, and they gave me a better understanding of how to improve my lesson plans and teaching approach.
The course gave me more confidence and practical knowledge, and I’m very happy to have completed my TEFL qualification. I would definitely recommend The TEFL Org to anyone considering teaching English.

What was your funniest moment?
Probably when I was creating lesson plans and realised how difficult it can be to make a simple activity both fun and educational.
Pros
  • Helpful and constructive tutor feedback
  • Well-structured and easy-to-follow course
  • Practical lesson-planning activities
What other participants should know
  • Some assignments can be quite time-consuming
  • More video examples of real lessons would be useful

Thorough Course and Relevant Material

I enjoyed this course and felt it was well done. The material was presented in mostly small segments that made completing one section doable and not overwhelming. It was easy to complete 3 or 4 lessons in one sitting. The material is repeated throughout and ensures the learner has ample opportunities to feel comfortable with the general overview of TEFL. There are also short quizzes and appropriate coursework that must be submitted. I found them very reasonable and they were graded in an adequate amount of time. The certificate also came promptly. I am really glad I took this course!

What was your funniest moment?
I'm not sure....it was pretty straightforward overal but the classroom recordings were lively!
Pros
  • Thorough Overview of Material
  • Clear Instruction
  • Repetition
What other participants should know
  • ESL proficiency levels need more explanation (Ex: CEFR)

Excellent

Very, very impressed with the quality and presentation of this online course. Very engaging, challenging and interesting . The presenters were very professional, engaging and enthusiastic,
Even though I had to re do a couple of assignments the course motivated me to keep going.

Great course

The course is interesting because it is divers. The assignments are challenging but fun to do. The feedback is very clear. Sometimes i wanted to discuss a bit with my tutor, but that was not an option.
The whole course is set up very clear and logical. Would recommend this course.
It took me a good amount of planning with my work, family and other obligations/activities. But i managed to finish the course in a couple of months. Once i got started, I really enjoyed it and wanted to finish it. I did not know there were as many assignments as there were, so that made me feel a bit defeated. But I managed to do it, planned time for it and wrote everything out and filled it in in the assignment.

What was the most nerve-racking moment and how did you overcome it?
I was pretty nervous for some assignments. Although I have been teaching for 20+ yrs on a high school. Covering new material, made me a bit insecure. But with the guidance of my tutor, Alex, i managed to finish all assignments.
Pros
  • Self paced
  • Quick reply's on assignments
  • Able to work on different devices at the same time
What other participants should know
  • You need to push yourself to do the work
  • Failing assignment can make you feel defeated

A Fantastic and Highly Practical Course!

I recently completed the 120-hour Premier Online TEFL course and overall, it has been a fantastic experience and a great course!
The core grammar and methodology units are incredibly thorough and I would add, outstanding. The assignment criteria are very strict but very fair, making you think like a precise, communicative language teacher. The tutor feedback on the final written assignments was outstanding and really boosted my confidence.
If there was one area that could be improved on this course, it would be the delivery format of the Online Teaching and Teaching Large Classes modules. These modules relied on extremely dense, text-based reading and quizzes. I felt that these particular modules really needed live video demonstrations of the lessons, showing both the teacher’s and the students’ screen perspectives especially with the Online Teaching Module. This would break up the reading and bring to life the theory that was just learned.
Overall, the support and curriculum are excellent. I’m actually looking at some of the advanced courses, with one in particular that I’d like to complete!
I highly recommend The TEFL Org to anyone looking for a high-quality, Teaching English as a Foreign Language qualification.

What was your funniest moment?
Opening up Module 1 - Grammar and thinking OMG! What have I got myself into?!? LOLLLL!
Pros
  • Use Group Leaders Immediately in Large Classes. When tackling the large classes module, drop traditional lecturing. Appoint designated student group leaders right from the start to manage handouts, monitoring, and noise levels.
  • Don't be discouraged if you need to resubmit an assignment. The tutors are strict, but their critiques are incredibly fair. Focus completely on making your free practice communicative and real-world to pass.
  • Keep an eye out for your tutor's personal discount code or site-wide sales at the end of the course.You can buy advanced modules like "Teaching Business English" at a massive discount.
What other participants should know
  • The Online Teaching and Large Classes modules rely entirely on dense reading. Visual learners desperately need live video examples to observe teacher-student screen dynamics and real-world management transitions.
  • Some of the later specialised units feel like a long, tedious text slog due to the lack of interactive media, video clips, or varied presentation formats to break up the theory.
  • While the major coursework is housed in the core grammar sections, the final modules still contain unexpected 120–150 word written reflections. Finding these at the very end of the course can feel frustrating when you think you are finished.
