Studying with The TEFL Academy has been a great experience. The online course significantly improved my knowledge of English grammar both in theory and in practice. Furthermore, the course taught me how to effectively plan lessons and work in various classroom settings. If you are are thinking about becoming a certified ESL teacher, The TEFL Academy in the best place to start!

I was very happy with both the online section and the 20 hour intensive course. I have now got a job in Hong Kong as a result of my TEFL qualification. I found the material easy to use and very accessible. Can nor fault any aspect of the course and would recommend it to anyone.

I have just completed my TEFL course and enjoyed it very much. I hadn’t studied English in a few years since leaving school, especially the grammar side of things but the course explains everything in detail and I had no problem completing any of the tests given at the end of each module. The feedback at the end of the course for the two assignments was beneficial and told me exactly what I had missed out on and what I could have done better on. I have taken a lot of new knowledge away with me after completing this course and hope to become a TEFL teacher as soon as I can! I would highly recommend this course to anyone who wishes to teach abroad as it is easy to understand while teaching you everything that you may need!

Had a great time completing this course. Having had no teaching experience I feel confident in being able to walk into a classroom and give a productive lesson. The 20 hours in the classroom was really helpful both with the course and experience giving a lesson with immediate feedback and instruction. The online facilities cover everything you need to know focusing more on methods of teaching rather than actual grammar rules etc but the resources they provide can help if you need. If you work hard at the course the final assignments are not hard but very good practical practice at a teaching situation and the feedback they give is very constructive. Would recommend to anyone thinking of teaching or even just for the experience!

I have just completed the 120 hour TEFL course and found it to be extremely beneficial. I previously completed a 4 year degree in Maths and PE teaching so I had already acquired skills and experience in planning and teaching lessons. However, I found this course to be very specific to teaching English, which was great. There were very detailed instructions and guidance on how to effectively teach different aspects of the English language. Specific and constructive feedback was provided after submission of assignments which helped a lot to see where I had been going wrong and how to improve upon these areas. Overall, I learned a lot from completing the course and now feel confident in my ability to teach English. I am very excited begin.

I have just received my certificate and passed with a distinction. It was hard work but throughly enjoyed the whole process and cannot recommend the combined course with The TEFL Academy enough. The course is a good balance of practical learning and online lessons the module activities are challenging and fun. The assignments are tough and really make you think but everything you need to complete them successfully is all provided during the course and through the end of module test. Feedback is very fast and helpful giving points for future teaching and highlights things that you may not have thought of. It is also very encouraging.

The whole process from booking to completion was enjoyable. Now let the job search begin!

Hi I am Mr. Naveed Hussain currently living in London. I have seven years experience in teaching. I started TEFL 120 hours at The TEFL Academy and was awarded in 2016. I never had such a tremendous experience with any institute before. This institute impressed me by the course, teaching method and particularly lesson planning during my TEFL course. I was really happy with the course supervisors and the staff who gave me fully support to complete this course. I have bee working as a teacher trainer in Pakistan so I got a lot of useful information regarding teaching supervision during this course. I suggest those who are really interested in English teaching courses, to come, join and get certification from worldly recognised institute in a better and useful way of teaching.

Thanks!

As a foreigner I am proud of achieving this course – distinction grade. I can definitely say, I enjoy it a lot, especially the opportunity to meet people and teach.

All takes about 6/7 weeks. I did study just hours after work – so it is not impossible even for busy people.

The course provides very good knowledge, view and expectations for the students.

Thanks to all for this experience!

I couldn´t have chosen a better company to do my TEFL qualification with. The whole process was perfect for me. I could complete the modules in my own time at my own pace. All the information was given in an easy-to-learn format, and the website was easy to use. The feedback was very quick from the assignments, and very detailed with points I could have improved on as well as things I did well. I would definitely recommend TEFL Academy to anyone wanting to get a TEFL qualification!
