This course has really tested my ability to be able to teach english but I would definitely do it again. It has given me skills that I didn’t think I needed. I am utterly greatful for the assistance that the people at The Tefl Academy gave me. Any query that I had, they answered it without any hassle and in a timely manner. Once again, Thank You for helping me accomplish Another goal.

I enjoyed the combined TEFL course very much, it was easy and challenging at the same time. As Ihad no teaching experiense at all. The online element was great and well organized. The two days intencive were amazing, I learnt too many new things.

I recommend this course to anyone who doesn’t have enough time to attend a full time course as it contains all needed teaching techniques and methodologies.

Being the first online course I have ever done, I had no problems working through the content and following the modules. With no prior teaching experience, I feel confident to start my teaching career abroad now that I completed the course. I will not hesitate to recommend the 120 hour Online course to anyone looking to do the same.

I have been teaching both Italian and English for 9 years at different levels but I keep studying to improve my skills.

I decided to take the online TEFL course because it gave me the opportunity to manage the course at my own pace as I am always very busy with work and family.

Even though I had taken other courses at University and have enough experience, the TEFL course gave me lots of new ideas to get my students involved in the classroom and lots of tips to improve my pronunciation, besides revising the most important aspects of teaching. The resources provided from the course are really a plus and are very useful both in the short and long term.

The course has been thought for inexperienced teachers but it is worth doing it even if you are already teaching. It definitely adds value to your résumé.

Very pleased with the 120-hour TEFL course. The online element was great because I could complete it in my own time (which I managed to do in just over 2 months) and the 2-day classroom workshop added a bit of real life element to it. The online course is easy to follow, but still challenges you to think out of the box. I already have a teaching job that required obtaining this certificate, but am now more confident when I talk about grammar, teaching vocabulary and how to structure a teaching lesson. Well worth the money!!!

The TEFL course with the TEFL academy was one of the best choices I made. It’s good value, the online course was not too hard, I was given feedback if I needed to revisit my assignments. The combined course is a great option, I found the class room based learning really helpful with writing lesson plans and most importantly lesson practice. I now teach English in Japan. The TELF course has opened so many doors for me.

I really enjoyed this course/ It was not only informative but fun as well! Creating activities for students was great. If I ran into any problems doing my assignments the tutors were a click away. I was given many chances to improve my scores. They don’t give up on you!

The TEFL course I made was really helpful.

The online course helped me understanding the better way to plan a lesson and focused on the principal issues that can be encountered during a teaching lesson.

The “in person” part was inspiring. The teacher was amazing! Kind, informed, professional, ready to help and give advice. I spent 2 amazing days in Liverpool with all the other students and I don’t regret a single minute spent there.

I am a former geologist who fell on hard times and needed a complete career change.

I am not a native English speaker, but I am as passionate about this language as I am with my mother tongue, Afrikaans.

I heard that there is a great demand for qualified English teachers in across the globe. Particularly in Asia.

As a former temporary geology lecturer, I am passionate about education and looking forward to this next chapter in my life.

I started the TEFL 120 hour course in March 2017 and completed it last month.

The classroom component of the course was fun filled and the tutor, Luan Dreyden was simply fantastic. She is an extremely competent tutor and I learnt a lot over that weekend.

The online tutors and student support services staff were extremely professional and helpful.

I have sent my curriculum vitae to various institutions in South Africa and around the globe. Unfortunately I have not succeeded to get a job, but I am still staying positive.

Thank you TEFL Academy for giving me a new lease on life in terms of starting a new career. Your prices are absolutely affordable and reasonable compared to other institutions.

May your institution go from strength to strength going forward.
