I had a very good experience with MyTEFL from start to finish. I had to get the TEFL with short notice in order to keep my current job, so I didn’t have much time to research before jumping in. I depended on reviews that I read on this website as well as some forums and youtube videos.

I would have to say that I agree with all of the positive reviews I have read in regards to the quality and pace of the content. I found it very interesting and relevant with absolutely no filler. I hate information that I don’t need or won’t use. This was straight to the point and is highly accessible to different learning types. I put my studies on hold temporarily and tackled this full time for about 3 weeks, which comes out to about 120 hours of work.

Importantly, I didn’t have to wait for a slideshow to time out or waste any time waiting for a timer. It was at my own pace and it’s nice to know that I can go back to this information if I ever need to. I have already been teaching English for over a year and whether I had ten times the amount of experience or fresh out of high school, this is a great course and I would recommend it to others.

I may be biased, but the only improvement I would consider is the ability to apply one’s skills and demonstrate one’s ability to teach English. I’m not sure how this would be possible for an online course, but thought I would mention it because it’s the only place I docked a star.

I went online to choose a course to take. I will be moving to Ecuador in July 2020 and wanted to get certified before moving. I searched for the best course to take, and several sites listed MyTEFL as the best and also best value. I am happy to say I agree. It is a very in depth course but self paced and I feel confident after completing the course that I will be well prepared to become a TEFL instructor. I was thinking that it would be easy and wondered how much I would learn from it. It turned out to be a very in-depth course and feel that it has prepared me for any teaching position I find. I utilized the chat link provided when I had questions and/or needed help, and was always helped promptly. If you are lucky enough to chat with Tina, she is awesome. Very helpful and supportive.

It is well worth the money and time.

I did a lot of research before picking a TEFL course to take and I’m so glad I ended up going with myTEFL. The course was super straight forward and I can see myself using a lot of the material that was taught.

The course material they provide in their library is super useful too! Although you only have access to this material for 90 days after your course ends, all the material can be downloaded!

Lastly, their staff is super helpful and have always been available to answer any questions I had. I will definitely recommend this course to all of my friends in the future.

I was skeptical at first, because you know, I speak English and was educated in English, so therefore I knew everything I needed to know in order to teach English. Well I was wrong. Needless to say I’m very happy I took the myTELF course.

I learned a lot about teaching in general as well as specifically teaching those who don’t speak English. The myTEFL course provided many useful strategies for dealing with situations that may arise in various classroom settings. It also had some great suggestions for adapting your teaching approach to particular cultures and age groups.

A portion of the course provided an invaluable grammar review. I had long ago forgotten many of the concepts and really needed the refresher course.

The intangible elements of the course were fantastic as well. They provide a tutor who can always be emailed should any questions arise. The technical aspects of the course were flawless too. I was able to move seamlessly though the course without any glitches.

In my opinion, myTEFL is definitely worth the time and money.

Hello. I am an online ESL teacher and I wanted to broaden my knowledge to be able to provide more for my students. I already have my Master’s in Teaching and have been licensed to teach in two states. I have over 18 years of teaching experience in both the public and the private sectors of education. As well as teach English online to my Chinese students, I also continue to home school my 6th and 7th graders. When I began to research the programs to get a TEFL certificate, I was looking at ratings and structure. After I read about the multiple programs available, I kept returning to MyTeFL. The professional site, the thorough information along with the promise of courses, programs, and job placements impressed me and I signed up.

Once I was involved, they did not disappoint. I was very pleased, not only with the amount of information in the classes, but the structure of the content. I am a visual learner and the way that the material was displayed helped me learn. Also, the lay out of the different classes was helpful too. One thing that I might suggest for future classes would be some links to videos that demonstrate the teaching technique that is being described in the lesson. This is just a suggestion though, because it is a thorough program as is. An unexpected bonus was the refreshing teaching tips that will not only add to my ESL classes, but will be a bonus in my other classes too. After I finished and received my certificate, I was pleased to find out that I still have access for a certain amount of time and that I can refresh as needed. Also, I can receive help in finding another job in the field if I decide to go that direction too. The possibilities are limitless.

I am very pleased with my choice to learn from and receive my certificate from MyTefl. I am an extremely busy person with 2 businesses, a family, homeschool etc and I was able to work through the classes and complete them because of the professionalism and organization of the program. I highly recommend MyTefl for anyone that is looking to add this certification.

I’ve been teaching ESL for a couple of years now. I’ve handled Japanese business people and Chinese students, kids to adults. The most challenging part of applying for a job is that they ask if you have a certificate or none, even when you’re at the stage of filling out a form. If you do not have a certification, expect that your salary will be extremely low like around $2/hour. In order for someone to make a living, with this kind of rate, you need to work for more than 8 hours. And if you do have a certificate, you can negotiate your salary. For some ESL companies, you can even set your own salary from $10 to $50 per hour.

That’s when I realized I need to upgrade myself; having a Bachelor’s degree and teaching experience seems to be not enough at all. I searched for online courses and came across a few legit companies. Until I read the article “The 15 Best TEFL Certificate Programs Online for 2019” and myTEFL rank #1.

I must commend that myTEFL has exceeded my expectations. Everything that I need has been covered in the course. The resources and website are user-friendly. The Customer Service is superb! They respond on their Live chat in a heartbeat. They’re very professional, polite and helpful. They’re the best CS Team I’ve ever encountered, hats off! Another brilliant thing about myTEFL is that they give assistance to find you a job in your selected country. Overall, I ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND myTEFL. Every penny is worth it! 🙂

The course exceeded what I was expecting.

I’m a teacher in Beijing and have been doing this for over a year now. The visa regulations change all the time and to make it easier my school asked me to complete a TEFL. One of their recommendations was MyTEFL because the authorities accept it without any trouble. I thought it would just be fluff to work through to get the certificate in the end. Actually it was a lot more than I expected, and despite teaching for a year I have found so many areas I have improved since working on the course. I find myself going back to review and add ideas to my lesson plans almost every few days.

The website was easy to navigate and the support staff friendly and helpful. Excellent value and I will recommend this course to any teachers looking to get a TEFL.

While the course itself was helpful in fulfilling my certification goals, I do wish that there was a way to practice teach before going straight off to look for a teaching job. I also wish that the library can be accessed permanently instead of only 90 days after completing the course. Overall though, I did learn a good amount of stuff from this course and will recommend it to my friends should they ask.

I wanted to make new opportunities for myself and teaching English as a foreign language always was appealing to me. I admit I was nervous about starting a course to earn my certification. I was nervous because like many other things that interest someone there are endless options to choose from. It is no different when looking for a tefl program. I researched and researched many different programs trying to figure out which one was best for me. I struck gold with mytefl. The course material is thorough but not boring. It keeps you engaged. The library is vast and some friendly advice Use the library! It is very helpful. The people that run mytefl are amazing. If you have questions they are very helpful, professional and get back with you very quick. This program offers so much. Tudor, library, help with job placement. I could not be more satisfied. If you are looking to get your tefl certification than in all honesty mytefl is where you want to get it. They are accredited, recognized and professional. You can’t go wrong. I promise!
