Review

If you want face to face hands on TEFL training, ACT offers the best deal. After all my research with different companies, ACT offered the best price for hands on training. Many other companies just threw you into an online program. I had a blast meeting everyone from all over the world. I really got to connect with my fellow students over the course of 3 weeks. The instruction from June was great. She is a fantastic teacher. The support from both June and Pak was great too. I was always able to reach them and sometimes even had questions after hours when class was already over. The course load was not difficult. We did have to prep sometimes for peer teach and demo lessons but the time you spent doing that outside of class was up to you. We were given time in class to work on most things as well . Regarding job assistance, Pak was able to find me two jobs in Bangkok, but since I really wanted to get a job outside Bangkok, she gave me a few contacts to aid me in that as well. i wish I possibly could have had more job opportunities offered through ACT but I just worked very hard on my own after hours during week 3 of the course utilizing different job boards and contacting many schools and agencies on my own. Overall the course was great. I feel very prepared to jump in and be a teacher after all the tools and skills ACT has taught me. The only thing we wish we knew ahead of time was that there are ways to teach without a college degree in Thailand (under an education visa) so I wish this was made clear to me because then I may have had a few people join the course with me. Thanks for an awesome time!

Would you recommend this program?
