I recently completed a 120-hour online TEFL course and found it to be an excellent introduction to the world of English teaching. The lessons were clear, well-structured, and covered a wide range of topic from grammar and classroom management to teaching techniques and lesson planning. I especially appreciated the practical examples and quizzes that helped reinforce key concepts. It’s a flexible course, perfect for anyone looking to start a teaching career or refresh their knowledge. Highly recommended!

I have always wanted to have my TESOL certificate, as I have always wanted to teach English. Initially, I was going to pursue my master's degree in TESOL here in Korea, as my university is one of the best programs to teach it (Hanguk University of Foreign Studies, HUFS). However, when I went to a trial class, I was shocked to see that they taught the course in FULL Korean, which I am not fluent in as I was born and raised in another country. Years later, after graduation and having a teaching job, I decided to have a certificate that would allow me to have a solid teaching background, TESOL, so I started to look online for courses in English for me to study with more ease. I found World Tesol Academy, so I enrolled. Luckily, there was a full certificate package with a discount, so I am currently studying to get my other certificates: TEAL, TEYL, and TEOL. Wish me luck!

What would you improve about this program?

I would like the academy to offer other certificate options for TESOL, such as advanced and pro TESOL.

Pros

Can study at my own pace and time.
Modules and lessons are simple to study, yet informational and useful.
Tests are short, but do ask relevant/important questions.

Cons

I had to scroll all the way down to my current lesson. Would be better if I could contract the finished ones.

I thoroughly enjoyed completing the 120-hour TESOL/TEFL course with World TESOL Academy. The course was well-structured, informative, and user-friendly. It covered essential topics such as classroom management, lesson planning, and ESL teaching strategies in a clear and practical way. The flexibility of the online platform allowed me to study at my own pace. The quizzes after each module reinforced key concepts and boosted my confidence as an ESL teacher. More recommendations are on the way when I get that GoPro, because I’m a social media influencer with a million followers. I'm planning to travel to the USA for ESL teaching!

This has been incredible, the course material is well unpacked, tutors are available to assist you, and the assessment at the end of each lesson provides a confirmation of your progress. What more can you ask for!

I thoroughly enjoyed the sequence of the modules; it makes perfect sense, and it helped me to minimize the ambiguity of not knowing where to start if you were to be given a chance to teach. Moreover, the awesome classroom demonstration of how a teacher would introduce verbs, what resources to use was awesome.

I will recommend this to anyone who wants to be a successful ESL teacher.

What would you improve about this program?

Nothing and again nothing! I will add more demostarion from teachers of different age groups.

Pros

The how you will teach content is the best!

Cons

An incredible journey

The administration staff, the quality of the website, lessons and quizzes were excellent.
Every query was timely answered.
Tutors were super informative and helpful.
My colleagues had great things to share about the course and materials.
The examples and videos were extremely helpful and easy to follow.
The quality of the content was top quality and clearly well revised and reviewed b the authors.
The list of topics were certainly well planned and designed to promote easy engagement by the reader.
Top notch, really.

I'll surely consider another course soon.

What was the most unfamiliar thing you ate?

A pickled wasp in Cambodia. A chocolate covered baby scorpion in Beijing, China.

Pros

Helped me review knowledge
Encouraged me to look up for forgotten information
Information read has well been documented for future application

Cons

Whenever, I scored below 90%
Whenever, I had to redo a quiz due to silliness and haste
Misunderstanding a tricky question, even though simple

It is an awesome course. I could brush up on many things through this course. The support given is excellent, and the way the lessons are arranged is impressive. However, I feel there should be an update on some lessons. Everything seems so simple, therefore, I feel there should be some complex part too. The grammar lessons can be made a bit complex along with the quiz. Anyway, I recommend this course to all those who want to take up teaching ESL. It is worth joining and can help you refresh your knowledge.

Pros

Easy to navigate through the sections
Quality materials

Cons

Some content is not upto the standard

The course is quite easy to learn, and the fact that you can do the quiz and see where you made mistakes helps with doing your final exam. I have a teacher record certificate, but opted to do this one as well, and I am very proud to say the course materials are so much easier to understand. I would recommend this program to anyone; in fact, I have already recommended it to one of my friends. World TESOL Academy has given me more confidence to teach online, as the certificate is very professional and the fact that I can get a hard copy is even better.

What was the most nerve-racking moment and how did you overcome it?

The demo lesson on native camp, I did it once and was so nervous that I had to redo it but I think I was even more nervous the second time but managed to pass.

Pros

easy to learn materials
Quiz results and corrections given
So much details that you have to pass

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.
