I studied the Level 5 TEFL Course (168 hrs) and it was a truly unique experience. The team involved were very professional, friendly and helpful throughout the course. All the aspects of teaching abroad successfully were covered and more. The company and those involved really put a lot of effort in the creation of the course and I would strongly recommend it to anyone wanting to teach abroad.

I have recently completed the 120 hours TEFL course and I have to divulge that it was a remarkable course. I am a holder of a B Ed degree, but a tefl qualification is essential to teach abroad. This course is well structured and permits you to work on your own pace. The course included 10 modules and each module had a meticulous focus. This course is a passport to anyone that wishes to travel and teach around the globe. It allows one the opportunity to experience diverse cultures. The lecturers are responsive and help out throughout the course when particularly when you stumble across difficulties. I would recommend this course to anyone that desires to teach and travel the world.

Well, what can i say, other than Im totally delighted by the proficiency and expertise of everyone working in the TEFL Academy – my lecturer, the course manager, the support team, the tutors. It definitely should be mentioned that the course content is super detailed and demands a lot of time for reading learning, further reading, practicing etc. Even though the course offers a lot of information, it is easy to go through it – as modules are planned really well. The structure is organized in such a way that doesnt burden the student. And last, but not least – the course gave me a very good foundation, confidence that thanks to putting the necessary effort and time, I can make quality lesson plans to deliver in my classes. Thanks to the practice with the 2 End of Course Assignments i was able to figure out how much work and thinking, researching and ongoing self-educating is required to be a great teacher. I would sincerely like to thank the whole team of The TEFL ACADEMY. Really recommend them to anyone who would like to expand his / her knowledge and to make a step into the direction of a future career as a TEFL English teacher.

The 120-Hour course content was well structured, interesting and very detailed. I thought the end of module tests were great as it allows you to put into practice of what you’ve learnt so far. The support team were also very helpful.

Very satisfied. The company was willing to work with me when I was diagnosed with cancer. I had to pause my education while I received treatment. I learned more about teaching English as a second language then I thought I would. I have a better understanding of how to break down the basics of teaching, lesson planing, and phonetics! My class was all online. That is why Instructor and Practice only received 4 stars. I have no complaints. I did not rate Job Placement as I am beginning to look and do not feel I can accurately rate this request.

I have always wanted to do some English course which could help me improve my knowledge. Finally I came across TEFL courses online. All in all everything was fine and i feel satisfied with gettting the cetrificate I have been dreaming about.

The courses likes that motivate you, encourage you, make you create something new that can be suitable for pupils you are going to teach.

To sum up, I would like to say, that teachers should always long to teach better, be better, do better. if you love what you do, you are always ready to do it.

The course content is comprehensive and it covers everything you need to know in detail from creating lesson plans to different teaching methods and useful teaching tips. Completing this course has definitely made me feel more confident about my teaching skills.

The end-of-course assignments were a great learning experience on their own as you’re required to create different lesson plans and come up with interesting activities and materials to suit your students; a great way to apply what you learned. Instructors were very helpful and quick to respond. They suggested ways in which I could improve my lesson plans further.

I’m so excited I just finished Level 5 TEFL Course (168 hrs) by the TEFL Academy! It was a long course, but very complete and interesting and the structure made it possible for me to study at my own pace. I’m a native English speaker, but, because I was born in Italy and I have a very Italian name, my CV often gets passed up by English language schools. I started this course because I need a document that certifies that I can teach English, even though I have already been teaching to all different age groups throughout the years.

I thought that this course wouldn’t really give me any information that I hadn’t previously acquired on site, but I was mistaken! It was a very insightful course, full of practical examples, links and references that I have found useful in my daily lessons. I think that the price is adequate to the completeness of the course too. I’ve already recommended it to fellow-teachers and I recommend it to you too!

Even with a baby and a toddler, I could finish this course in almost an half a year. That is because of the well organzed contents.

The feedback I received from instructors are very helpful. Highly recommended.
