Now I can see. Before embarking on this transformative course, I held the belief that I comprehended the essence of being an English teacher. Nevertheless, owing to the enriching content and engaging methodology of this course, my perception has undergone a profound shift, allowing me to discern with utmost clarity the genuine significance of imparting accurate guidance to others. I've come to realize that effective teaching transcends the mere dissemination of information; rather, it involves the cultivation of knowledge that resonates deeply within the student's heart. This newfound understanding fills me with immense joy, as I am now equipped and enthusiastic about making a meaningful and substantial contribution to the learning journey of others!

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

I really liked that in this course, they taught me a couple of things about grammar and phonetics that I truly had no idea how they worked. At first, it was exciting, but when it came to doing the exercises and putting them into practice, I would get frustrated, and it didn't go very well for me. I had to repeat those lessons, but with the help of others, I finally achieved it. And now I feel that my knowledge has increased. That makes me happy.

Pros

The program briefly covers various aspects of English grammar.
It teaches how to conduct a class.
There are exams designed to efficiently assess our skills.

Cons

I would have liked it to delve deeper into other areas.

Originally, all I wanted was to improve my credentials or further my education; I never imagined that I would also find the course material and lessons to be enjoyable. The World TESOL Academy is the greatest, they provide thorough and useful lessons. The lifetime free access is a fantastic feature. Even as a photographer, I find small elements like the certificate's design to be rather pleasing. Making oneself proud after graduating from this academy is certain! I would like to express my gratitude to the entire staff of this company for creating such a conducive platform for TESOL study!

What would you improve about this program?

To lessen the cost of the shipping fee when availing the hard copy certificate.

Pros

The lessons
Life-time access
Accreditation

Cons

There's none

I chose this course because of its price and didn't expect much from it. However, it's completely exceeded my expectations. Not only does it contain all the necessary information to back up your practice but it's written in a very simple and understandable language. There's a support team who can answer your questions but I didn't resort to their help as the information is well-structured and given in comprehensible chunks. This course is definitely worth its money! I'm going to take another course here.

This course is very clear and simple!
It’ s easy to understand and well structured.
It uses key words that penetrate in the brain quickly and highlight the most important aspects of teaching.
It gives examples and tricks to engage with the students.
Just a small suggestion would be add some interactive exercises/test in some of the sessions. For example a way to test our pronunciation, or maybe a simulation of a very short teaching class about a specific topic with one of the tutor, in order to check if the teaching method was well understood. Let’s say…a small live session to confirm the knowledge acquired, that gives us a real feedback at the end of the course.
Not to forget… affordable!
Highly recommended!

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

The “teaching listening” class was my nerve-racking moment because, during the course we are interacting with slides in a pc/tablet but not with humans. At that point, my question was ”how can I practice this? What exercise is most suitable?”
Well…the answer was…”none, until I have a student in front of me”.
Only then I realized that I could drive to my mum’s place to practice… it was a really fun time! 😅Stress relieved!

Pros

Clear
Cheap
Simple

Cons

Missing some interacting exercises

This self paced online learning platform is easy to use and packed full of detailed and informative content. The quizzes are helpful to confirm the knowledge retained or any misunderstood. I enjoyed going through the material at a pace that was comfortable for me. I took extensive notes and was able to retake quizzes to review the concepts that I found more difficult. I was able to study even while travelling in Europe. I would recommend this course to anyone interested in considering a job teaching English.

What would you improve about this program?

Though the material was easy to access, detailed and mostly comprehensive, along with the option to seek out assistance if required, I would have enjoyed it more if it was more interactive.

Pros

Well priced
Easy to use
Plenty of content

Cons

Some lessons too long/too much content at one time
Too few quizzes for modules with large amounts of content
No human interaction unless struggling

This program was extremely easy to navigate, accommodating, and straight forward. It was a very seamless process, which I appreciate as I hope to pursue teaching overseas in Taiwan! I enjoyed the interesting course content that kept me engaged and encouraged. The mini quizzes throughout were very helpful and prepared me well for the exam! I will say the final exam was a little repetitive and I would have enjoyed some new questions, but I'm not complaining too much! I will definitely be recommending this to a friend!

What is your advice to future travelers on this program?

Apply to as many job opportunities that you see in the country that you want to go to! There are so many options out there, but don't compromise your location, salary, or benefits because of the job! Just keep applying!

This course was laid out quite well & easy to follow along with. I look forward to applying the knowledge I've learned here toward finding employment while living overseas.

Though I spent some time procrastinating the start of the course, I found myself a bit addicted to completing each course & checking my overall progress/completion on my dashboard. To be honest, I was a bit impatient along the way - adjusting the video speed to 1.5x and binge-learning, but I believe I finished the course ahead of the expected requirement / 120-hour estimate.

Good luck to everyone!

Website is a bit dull/dated
Keeping a schedule / motivation

I had a wonderful experience with this TESOL course. I was initially worried about whether I can keep up with the course given how busy I am with my work, but the program was designed so efficiently that I had zero problems at all. The course was very engaging with its use of pictures and easy to understand language and format. I also like how the mmodules aren't overly long or detailed. The modules are just enough to keep me well-informed about the topics. What was initially daunting to me proved to be an amazing experience. I would definitely recommend this course to others!

What is your advice to future travelers on this program?

Do not be afraid to take the course! TESOL seems scary but this program makes learning fun.

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.
