This is a well designed and supported TEFL course. The combination of online and direct practice time provided an excellent foundation to start teaching English for different levels in a variety of settings. Additionally, the resources for looking for work and crafting a CV are very useful for teachers that are just starting out. Personalized feedback on assignments was clearly well thought-out. I had no technical problems with the online course.

I like the structure that has been provided during the course.

It has helped me a lot to understand who do I have to prepare the class and has given me a lot of new teaching ideas.

Everytime I’ve contacted the instructor, she/he has given me very good feedback to follow my course and pass the test. I appreciate all the resources this course provides in order to plan a good class for my future students.

I still haven’t searched for a TEFL job, although I consider this option for the near future.

I completed the 120 hours of TEFL online course and I am very satisfied with the whole course. This allowed me to organize my time and deal with my job and the rest of things to do without any stress!

The lessons are very clear, every instruction is planned in details, no room for any misunderstading! And, should you need any help, tutors are really helpful and extremely nice and kind with you.

The final assignments are a bit more challenging as you need to use your fantasy to find some ideas for lesson plans and put all the informations you learnt together, but at the same time, you got all the instruments to get a really good job done.

I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to start a career in education without any experience.

A friend of mine stumbled upon your deal and we signed up together at a special rate. I couldn’t have been happier with the course, doing it in my own time and the 20 hour weekend sacrifice, I was well prepared for having been giving the date in advance. Not only was it a fantastic way for a native speaker to review all the grammar essentials, but also an amazing resource for learning new teaching material and methodology.

Thank you TEFL Academy for all your support and patience.

A thoroughly enjoyable course, nicely balanced, heavier modules followed by less challenging modules.

I completed the class based element in Galway where the facilities and teacher were excellent. Even that there was a shop so nearby to escape to buy treats was really convenient! The weekend was intense yet very manageable.

The online element needs dedication but is also very interesting. End of module tests mean you are being assessed as you go. The end of course assignments prepare you for what may be required of you as a TEFL teacher and the feedback is very specific so you can go forward with confidence that you are correct in your lesson plans etc.

Overall I would highly recommend this course for anybody considering language teaching. Such a fun approach to learning was eye opening!

I completed the 120 hour online TEFL certificate through the TEFL Academy and I was very impressed with the entire course. The content is interesting and usefully challenging. All of the activities are designed to help understand the content in a useful way. Some of the small activities seem a bit unnecessary, but as a whole the course is an amazing way to get a fundamental understanding of the English language and teaching this language to students.

I have recently completed the TEFL course and would reccomend this course to anyone who is looking to get a TEFL cert. The course is well structured with focus on lesson plans which is key to a teacher. The staff are also very helpful with CV’s and any questions. I would reccomend this course as it has a very high standard and provides a great qualification.

I am really delighted that I passed the TEFL course. It was something I really wanted to do and finally passed it! I am very happy. Am looking forward to now teaching the world english!!

The whole course was very well organised. Tutors were always available to help and give feedback. Feedback was good and constructive.

The course on line was a great asset too because it allowed me to take my own time to do it, with the constant help of the tutors.

Tutors and class assignments give you a chance to be creative and open your imagination, whilst keeping in line with the tools and the rules..

Thanks again for all the help you have given me and for opening new doors of opportunities.

This TEFL allowed me to affordably learn while already in another country. The course material was easy to understand but challenging enough to teach me new methods of understanding language. I was already teaching when I started the course, but with each new module I felt I had so much more to offer the students. At the end of the course I was a more confident and considerate teacher. Also, the online resources introduced during the course will be resources I continue to use as long as I teach English.
