The TEFL course was very helpful, the weekend part provided a very helpful and friendly atmosphere, the instructor was friendly and willing to help when needed, and gave good feedback to the small practice lessons at the end of each day. The online portion of the course was good as the materials provided were very detailed and were a great aid when doing the assignments. The online staff are also very helpful in terms of their feedback, on what you could improve and what you did well, and are given the chance to resubmit assignments if you fail, though I did not fail any of the modules. The staff responded quickly and allowed me to submit the next assignment. I’m very glad of the whole experience and have no regrets at all, I plan to start my tefl career properly after finishing university.

I would highly recommend the TEFL Academy for your TEFL course. I thought they had the right balance of classroom and online course work. I met a lot of great people on my classroom sessions, many of whom I’m still in contact with. I thought the online course work was well structured and provided me with the relevant background knowledge to launch my new career in TEFL. They have been helping me to apply for relevant jobs. Overall, a great course.

A great introduction to teaching English abroad and seems to have great job prospects and guidance after completion of the course.

Modules were well structured and provided a range to suit the majority of eventualities whilst teaching with suitable links to aid improvement after each.

i really enjoyed the overall experience.

i exceptionally liked meeting new people and finding out their ambitions in doing this course.

i was really apprehensive about doing the essays because i hate writing essays but because of the resources given it helped in developing my essay and the fact that we can contact the TEFL Team for any queries helped with my confidence producing and answering the essay questions.

Overall a very well organised and facilitated course that incorporated a class-based weekend into a mainly online course. The flexibility of the online course was essential for me as a person in full-time employment. The materials and advice made available during the course were good.

Sarah the teacher in Bristol was great. Cannot recommend the Tefl Academy enough.

The course material covered all bases that are taken up in books dedicated to Englich as a foreign language.Therefore it is substantial enough to get students integrated into what teaching will/should/could be like. TEFL Academy provided quick feedback on all submitted work, with examples of what can be done to improve future lesson plans etc. They allowed extension to the intial 1 year course( paid for) which suits people who maybe are in no rush to do the course but dont want to redo the intial weekend. The basis is there for anyone to do the course and use the TEFL links to implement good course work. Would have no problem recommending TEFL Academy for anyone who wishes to go into teaching english as a foreign language

So glad I decided to do the 120 hour; the teacher for the classroom experience was great and the 100 Online hours were paired with great resources and clearly explained assessments; looking forward to starting my efl experience in Vietnam!

Would reccomend

I really enjoyed the two days in class, and the teacher was very helpful. As for the online course, the modules were very detailed and useful. The feed back from the tutors did come really quickly and were generally helpful.

I liked the fact that the assessments allowed me to be creative. I now feel ready to teach students of an intermediate or upper intermediate level. As for beginners, it probably will just come with experience.

Overall I was very satisfied with the course and can’t wait to teach.

I am very glad that I chose to take a 120 hr course as all of the schools I have applied to so far have requested 120 hours for the certificate. The classroom aspect is also really helpful as 80% of the schools I have contacted requested to know about what experience I have had previously, so without the classroom aspect I would have been stuck!

I haven’t used the job placement aspect much as I’ve been looking for very specific schools on my own – so this is the only part that I can’t comment on.

It’s a great course that helps not just with the theory but allows you the chance to practice the practical side too. I can see me using a lot of my assignments in my teaching in the future.
