When I was looking through the countless online TEFL courses, World Tesol Academy's TESOL/TEFL course stood out because of its double accreditation and its validity in several countries worldwide, as well as reputable online ESL companies like EF. The course included the basics and the essentials to start teaching English as a newbie teacher. The topics were broken down into several points which helped so much in breaking the monotony of reading a lot of text about the same topic. I would've liked it if there were more videos included in the course but it was still fine. A helpful tip would be to use a tiny journal dedicated only to answering concept questions from this course.

It's not an intensive course but it will aid in your credibility when applying for ESL jobs. I ordered the hard copy of the certificate as well as my transcripts. The design of their certificate is also a bonus since it looks much more professional than those of other online TEFL course providers.

Pros

Affordable Price
Legitimacy

Cons

Lacks Assesments

I do not necessarily feel ready to teach, some more information on the rules of the English language (grammar) may have been helpful. Fast and simple.

Some elements about how to handle children, working online, and reward systems are subjective. This is fine but it spans a broad amount of the course, meaning that the concrete material that you actual need to be able to teach the English language, which is just a few grammatical and tense components, takes up a small portion of the course.

Still, painless and the UI is good.

Pros

fast
simple
easy

Cons

Too loose
Certain elements being tested on are subjective
Maybe not enough job preparation

I always excelled in English in school. It was my best subject. I first began teaching years ago, and have made many strides in improving my ability to teach a subject in which I excel. This course was eventful and full of information. Every question I could think of was covered. It approaches teaching from an application and science-based perspective. This course will allow you to brush up on concepts you know and delve deeper into them. I will certainly recommend it to my colleagues! Only a few weeks after learning this program, I found a method of simplifying the basics of English. My young students were speaking confidently in only a few weeks! Thanks to all at World Tesol Academy for making such a great course!

Pros

The course modules are filled with great detail.
The course gives you hints on how to cater your teaching style to your audience.
I was able to rapidly implement things I learned into my lessons immediately.

Cons

There is nothing about the course that I didn't like.
The quizzes and multiple-choice questions were challenging but effective.
The sections on starting as a teacher and using games to effectively teach were eye opening.

Hello, I'm Jenifer currently living here in South Korea, I'm an English teacher here for 7 years, I did the course in just 17 days.
I heard about this program before but the time was a conflict since I'm working full-time.

So, just last month my friend tin told me that try this World TESOL academy it's great because you can get it online. So, I tried to enroll right away since I'm greedy to have a certificate. It has 8 modules so basically, each module has a quiz that's for the evaluation of what you've learned. So the good thing here is if you're having a hard time answering the question you can ask for help thru chat, it's located on the lower right side. I struggle with module two which focuses on grammar, however, I feel great because I learned a lot of techniques on how to do it easily.
I highly recommend this program to everyone who's planning to teach English and who wants to have short courses.

I really enjoyed the dynamic of the course. The information given was so clear and easy to follow as well that the examples given were so clear to understand. The examples of activities we can give to our students to practice were simple but really meaningful and fun to apply. I truly feel all the knowledge resumed in the course was perfect planned to guide us to teach so much better during an English class. I am so thankful and glad that I have found this course to improve my English teaching skills.

Pros

Easy to follow
Short lessons
Good examples

AMAZING! I learned a lot from this course. I really enjoyed all the activities for students mentioned in the course. Very easy guidelines. I100% recommend this course. Lesson planning is explained beautifully inthe course. Suggestions for how to make the environment of class more interactive and to involve all the students in extremely interactive activities are so on point. Its amazing that it has a grammar part as well. Overall the course is going to be very useful in my day to day job. Really well done!

Pros

easy to access
lots of quizzes
activities

Cons

It requires more time.
sense of isolation
procastinate

This was a fun experience , I learned so many new things I didnt know before . i believe i have improved my english just by doing this TESOL course . i would recommend anyone planning on teaching english abroad to try this course.

Completing this course, I am able to become the best ESL teacher, I hope to be. everything i was taught at the World TESOL Academy I will be able to teach my students confidently and clearly. i have no regets do that couse.

Pros

Can take your time to study.
Can study any where you are.
Easy to use.

Cons

can't think of any
dont think there is any

The course was simple and easy to complete, which is very important when it comes to a self-taught online course. Everything was explained clearly. Something I liked was how the quizzes could be completed as often as needed because if I made a mistake, I could go back to fix it and achieve a full understanding. The time given to complete the course is fair and enough to not have to cram a lot of studying in a few days but take your time to make the proper notes and be ready for the final exam. This is a big plus considering it is an online course making it easier to procrastinate. So even if you have to put off a few days of studying you can still manage to complete the course successfully. Overall a great experience and very satisfied with receiving complete training making me better prepared for teaching either online, overseas, or locally.

Pros

Time Efficient
Simple
Work on mistakes or lack of comprehension

Cons

Since online easy to procrastinate.
A few technical difficulties.

Alumni Interviews

These are in-depth Q&A sessions with verified alumni.

Why did you choose this program?

I chose the accredited 120-hour TESOL/TEFL program to enhance my skills in teaching English to speakers of other languages. This certification allows me to effectively communicate and teach in diverse cultural settings, enriching my volunteer work and supporting my passion for education and travel...

What did your program provider (or university) assist you with, and what did you have to organize on your own?

My program provider assisted me with comprehensive course materials, guidance from experienced instructors, and a structured curriculum to ensure I met the requirements for TESOL/TEFL certification. I had to organize my study schedule, complete assignments independently, and manage any additional resources needed to supplement my learning.

What is one piece of advice you'd give to someone going on your program?

One piece of advice I'd give to someone considering this program is to leverage your organizational skills. As a very organized person, I found that creating a structured study plan and setting regular goals were crucial to staying on track and maximizing the benefits of the program. This approach ensures you manage your time effectively and get the most out of the experience.

What does an average day/week look like as a participant of this program?

An average day or week involves self-directed study and practical application. You would spend time exploring course materials, conducting personal research, and integrating what you’ve learned into your daily encounters. This could include reviewing theoretical concepts, developing lesson plans, and reflecting on how to apply these strategies in real-world settings. Regularly engaging with the material and experimenting with your newfound knowledge in practical situations will help reinforce your learning.

Going into your experience abroad, what was your biggest fear, and how did you overcome it? How did your views on the issue change?

Going into my experience teaching English as a foreign language overseas, my biggest fear was not being able to effectively connect with and engage my students due to language barriers and cultural differences. I worried that my limited experience in new cultural settings might make it challenging to communicate and build rapport.

I overcame this fear by investing time in learning about the local culture and customs, actively seeking feedback from students and colleagues, and adapting my teaching methods to better suit their needs. As I gained more experience and confidence, I realized that being flexible and open to learning from my students greatly enhanced my teaching effectiveness. My views on the issue evolved as I understood that building relationships and understanding local contexts are key to successful teaching abroad.

Write and answer your own question.

Question: What is one memorable experience from teaching English abroad that you would like to share, and is there anything you would have done differently?

Answer: One memorable experience from teaching English abroad was organizing a cultural exchange event where my students and I shared stories and traditions from our respective cultures. It was heartwarming to see my students gain confidence in their English-speaking skills and equally rewarding to learn about their backgrounds.

If I could do anything differently, I would have started incorporating these cultural exchange activities earlier in my teaching. They not only made the learning environment more engaging but also helped bridge cultural gaps and fostered a deeper connection with my students. This experience highlighted the importance of integrating cultural elements into language teaching to make lessons more meaningful and interactive.
