I took the 120 Hour Advanced International TEFL Course and I appreciate the ease with which I can go through each lesson. It’s organized, easy to follow, and the interactivity of the platform makes it easier as an online course.

I also appreciate the fact that there are video content in addition to just reading texts and concepts.

It would be great though if the course has an offline version where having an internet connection was not required. It would have been so helpful for me over the holidays for example when I had to travel by plane for long hours and couldn’t do the course since there wasn’t an offline version or a way to do the lessons offline. Nevertheless, this was my first TEFL online course and I am quite satisfied with it.

Worthy to note as well is their client service. They would reply promptly and as a user of their platform and learner of their course, that’s very comforting to have. A special thank you to Lisa, who offered a solution to a problem I had encountered. She was really helpful and very accommodating.

Overall, I am quite satisfied with the quality of the course as well as the service that the TEFL Institute provides.

After an unsuccessful job interviewed for the position of an IELTS instructor, I came across TEFL Institute and found the solution I needed to improve my chances of getting a job by taking the 30 hours IELTS course. The training was user-friendly, the material was comprehensive with excellent methodological content and with plenty of practice exercise. This training will hopefully help me to prepare my interview better, apply the skills I learnt in order to help my prospective IELTS students achieve their goals.

Thank you, TEFL Institute!

Overall, the 30-hour IELTS course was well-designed, and the interface easy to use. I now have a much better understanding of how an IELTS exam is structured, and what students need to master in order to receive a satisfactory band score. My only issue was that not all the audio clips could be saved. For some reason, audio portions that were 3 minutes or longer could not be saved — just the shorter ones. This seems to be a technical issue. Hopefully it can be resolved soon. Good course overall, and I would take other courses through The TEFL Institute in the future. Thanks!

I recently completed the 30-Hour Online Teaching IELTS Exam Preparation Course and really enjoyed it. I was already familiar with the speaking section, but I wanted to gain a deeper understanding of how to teach the other parts of the exam, and this course helped me do just that. It’s very practical, with lots of useful tips and strategies.

Overall, I’m very happy with the experience and feel that I’ve learned a lot.

Course contents were planned well. Suitable for prospective TEFL folks. It was pretty interactive and straight to the point. It provided the skills , information and the know – how .

The interactive interphase wasn’t pretty too hard to go through and the click rates were easy to follow.

The videos that were used as well had pretty good information in them and the quality was acceptable.

Areas of improvement would be to be able to log off , and still keep my previous work as most folks would not like to probably go back to start the course again, although that is useful in trying to keep reviewing the course but perhaps, this should be looked at.

Overall, I enjoyed the contents as I have had practical experience in teaching prior and also have done other courses on TEFL before.

Keep up the good work and hopefully it gets much better.

After many hours of research to source a reputable and internationally credible English teaching course provider, amongst the many available, I selected the TEFL Institute. I must say that I am extremely pleased with the process, organization, and professionalism that I have experienced while studying. Initially, I started with a 120 hour Advanced TEFL program. I enjoyed the study material and the way the course was streamlined and organized and since decided to continue to upgrade with two 60 hour level 5 courses. I am now in the process of writing the exams for these courses. Although the level 5 course is more intense than the Advanced 120hr, the content, structure, and exam questions clearly prepare you for a greater understanding of higher level learning expectations that a learner (client) would have. I feel I will be well prepared to assist others in their English learning journey.

I want to specifically thank Lisa for her assistance in some technical and academic troubleshooting needs that I needed to work through. Lisa is highly skilled in her role and followed up with my queries expeditiously to provide me with a solution.

I would certainly recommend the TEFL Institute to other students looking to acquire an online English teaching certificate or diploma.
