Learning with the TEFL Academy was a great experience! I currently teach English online as a tutor, but thanks to the Qualifi Level 5 course I took, I’ve been able to better develop my skills and repertoire in teaching English as a foreign language. My goal is to teach kids abroad, and TEFL Academy has helped me take a huge leap forward in achieving that! For the price I’ve paid, I gain access to a lot of information and opportunities with the TEFL Academy. They definitely accommodate and assist their students well regarding any concerns. If anything, I would have preferred more interactive course activities and teaching practices. I think if they also had made some in-house videos to demonstrate certain points, that’d make things more engaging. Nevertheless, I’m so glad I took my journey with TEFL Academy – I wouldn’t have had it any other way.

This is a very good online course that I would definitely recommend to my friend. I like the templates the most which I can really use in my teaching practice at my workplace. The assignments are a bit difficult to me but I am able to complete it all by myself which makes me happy. The tutor’s feedback can help me understanding more how I can do my work better.

Overall this course is very good and gives a good introduction to teaching English as a Second Language. The content is clearly explained and presented in an easy-to-understand manner.

It could include some practical teaching lessons/practice. I would highly recommend this course to anyone looking to teach English as a second language.

The Level 5 course was great,it was very well-structured and very helpful. I learned a lot of skills about how to be a good teacher at language schools. The TEFL Academy also provided a classroom course on the weekend. A teacher with lots of experience gives you a lot of good information and practice. The assignments were a lot of work, but a good experience for being a teacher. Overall, are you interested in doing a TEFL course? The TEFL Academy is the right place to do it!

Really enjoyed the course. It was challenging but I believe I am far better prepared to enter the world of English teaching. The trainer was very knowledgeable and the course content was interesting and thought provoking.

The Tefl Academy has provided me an awesome experience learning more about teaching, preparing me for greater challenges as an educator and finally making me feel more confident as a teacher.

The course content is clean and well planed, teaching practice is interactive as they also provide a quality feedback for students.

Their lesson plan guidance as platform are user-friendly and rich on information.

The instructors who assessed my activities were well prepared and gave me some useful pieces of advices. Facilities and resources were plentiful as well as some job assistance after I finished the course.

In my opinion the course is very straight foward and practical, but maybe there could have been more live interactions with the instructors.

If you are looking for a fast, practical but still thorough TEFL Certificate, Tefl Academy is the one for you!

This course is fantastic for anyone who wants a career in teaching. It’s a good investment and you get all the support you need. One suggestion I will make is that there needs to be a lot more video content, will be beneficial to visual learners, Howe ever this is not a problem. I loved doing the six months of my level 5 tefl and I would definitely recommend others who wish to pursue a career in foreign teaching to get this on your CV if you do want a career in teaching. Thankyou TEFL academy for making my dreams come true, the support is excellent!

I have never taken any TEFL course in the past. Hence, I am not able to make any comparison. However, I found the course quite interesting and very informative. It is not something that you can buy. You have to earn it. You need to have an interest to do the course if you would like to pass. In my opinions, the feedback and grading are subjective to the teachers who look at your work. So, it is hard to get what you want.

I think the native speakers grade the students’ work based on their own experiences and knowledge, which I find a bit unfair, as you can’t put a student at the same level as a native speaker/teacher. But, if you are okay with a “pass grade” than re-sit and repeat the whole thing again, then that is fine.

Overall, I think the course is a good thing to do if you would like to experience teaching in general.

The content of this unit is very logical as well as appropriate for advanced level students. test exercises/activities for students can be added along with more speaking and listening exercise’s. The material is a well-sequenced lesson plan. Overall this unit covers a majority of the checklist. This course book is well structured for advance level students, allowing me to make effective use of the entire course book.

The TEFL Academy could also consider having pre-recorded lessons with a lecturer explaining and highlighting various materials in each section.

I highly recommend the course to anyone interested in teaching English as a second language.
