I highly recommend this tefl online course. Not only does this course provide you with excellent resources, it also tests you on everything you have learned so far. The tutors are extremely helpful with providing guidance on the quality of your assignments and where to improve and how to make the most out of lessons with students. I can’t wait to put everything I have learned into practice.

Really enjoyed the in class course, it was a great introduction to see how many ways English can be taught. The teacher covered a lot of work and put my mind at ease about any worries I might have.

The online work was great. Lots of work but there’s loads of information available for beginners. I enjoyed completing the online work as it helps with lesson planning which we’ll be using a lot as teachers.

Thanks for the course!

I was unsure about what organisation to use to gain my TEFL qualification as there are so many to choose from. In the end I choose The TEFL Academy and am very glad I did.

The in class teaching was excellent, and so was the online work. The level of feedback was good and I feel confident teaching English.

If you are trying to choose a company to do your course with, definitely go with The TEFL Academy.

The 20 hour classroom event was educational and well-managed. The information was accessible and very informative.

The modules for the 120 course are well-defined and well written. While it may take a moment to understand how the online element of the course works in regards to the workbooks, it is ultimately very useful.

If the course may feel too easy while completing the modules, the end of course assignments are designed to ensure that the learner has truly understood the material – there is no hand-holding here.

The support ticket system was easy to use and resolved my issues promptly and without incident.

A very positive experience.

I really enjoyed all aspects of this TEFL course. The end-of-module tests were well-designed, and I think they constituted an accurate and fair test of how much of the module had been absorbed and understood. I also liked that later module tests had occasional questions pertaining to earlier modules, as it provided a form of revision and ensured that the whole course felt joined-up instead of being stand-alone modules.

The end of course assignments were both great at assessing how much of the course had been understood overall, and required quite a hands-on approach in implementing some of the theory from the modules which I found very helpful. The feedback I received was detailed and helpful – overall I would definitely recommend this course to anyone wanting to complete an online TEFL.

If you want an engaging and fulfilling course in TEFL teaching, then this course is the best! Helpful and understanding, the TEFL academy really pushed me into doing more with my course and the 20 hour practical course helped with my confidence and the 100 hour course ensures you understand the foundation of TEFL teaching. Since I’m newly qualified, I can’t wait to get started!

I thoroughly enjoyed all aspects of this course and would happily recommend it to anyone considering an EFL career. The content was comprehensive, engaging and sufficiently challenging, the course structure well-thought out (although the grammar modules looked daunting at the outset, they were actually very manageable), and the instructors very detailed and considered in their feedback and guidance. The final assessments in particular I found very instructive; the opportunity for creativity and independence had a significant impact on my confidence to take on an EFL position.

I would have liked more opportunity to practice teaching, and a greater variety of resources suggested to me as the majority were online (I am more of a book learner, personal preference). I have yet to apply for work as an EFL instructor but I am confident that this course has provided me with the skills and understanding I need to be an excellent teacher in a great variety of settings.

I am extremely satisfied with Tefl Academy in terms of its course. I chose the 120 hour online course. The course was well structured and very much educational with a lot of input included. As for the assignments, I am very much satisfied with the tutors or examiner. I didnt pass it in the first try as I was clueless on how to create a full 50 minutes lesson plan on grammar and listening class. the tutor/examiner left a lot of feedback and comments which had helped me a lot in completing the assignments. She managed to show me and guide me throughout the first assignments. She clearly pin-point what I did wrong and what should be included in the lesson planning.

I am very much happy with the examiner and the helped rendered throughout my 120 hour online courses. In terms of job placement part, tefl academy gave clear guidelines on how to write a cover letter and also included some jobs advertisement link, However, it was kind of difficult to do so since I have yet to receive my certificate to include in my job application till this date. I finished my course mid july.

Nevertheless, tefl academy gave a lot of input and knowledge in such a reasonable price and ample time to finish the course. Meaning that, you can finish the course in your own time and in no rush. Highly recommend Tefl Academy to help you to get the certificate.

This course is excellent. It is well structured, and follows a clearly understandable path through language teaching. It is easy to follow, and there is ample opportunity for revision and consolidation as you work through the course. The course develops the learner’s skills, assuming that the student has little knowledge about language structure and teaching. I was doing the course as an experienced primary school teacher, and I found that there was no room, in the end of the course assignments, to allow for that experience. It would be helpful if one could identify the level of teaching experience, if any, that one starts the course with, and that this is then taken into consideration throughout the course, and particularly in the final assignments. I would also have liked to possibility to engage in professional discussion during the course. There were some teaching points that I would have like to ask about, and proffer my experience as a counter to the course suggestions. The opportunity to have a forum discussion, with the key tutors and other students, several times during the course would be a great addition. Overall, I would highly recommend this course.

I thought this course was really worth the time. I’ve already recommended it to friends! There’s alot of helpful links and notes. I found the exams at the end of each module and the end exam really helpful to maintain and learn information. The reviews on the course work was really helpful and gave a lot of guidance on how to improve.
