I was very happy with the course, the amount of information looked overwhelming first but it was very well organised and kept me motivated by showing my progress along the way. I learnt so much and I will be more confident as a teacher now.

This course is excellent for those who are thinking of going into teaching. The skills you learn can be applied to teaching any subject really.

Even if through this course you realise teaching others is not for you, you could still use the skills you’ve gained to better teach yourself new languages.

The online course is quite straightforward, but one must make sure to keep track of time. Other than a single notification 30 days before your enrolment expires, the course provider does not remind you of due dates, so it’s up to you to manage your time properly. A one month extension is really only two weeks, because you need to account for the marking time.

There are some sections, especially in the last few units, that seem unnecessarily repetitive, especially if you take the time to properly study the content from the first few units. However, one could consider this good revision.

There are links to many more resources provided within the course, which would be helpful to those who are certain and passionate about pursuing a career in teaching English.

Overall, this is an excellent course, especially for those who approach it proactively.

I really enjoyed this course, it was clearly and professionally set out and easy to follow as a distance learner. The content was well thought out and presented in a way that made it accessible to understand and learn. I felt I learned a lot of content during the units and the end-of-unit tests encouraged me to do the learning properly and therefore remember the content well. The assignments were challenging but the feedback provided was extensive and I felt the grading was fair. I have come away from this course feeling that I am well prepared to teach english in a foreign language.

Overall, I loved this course. It was exactly what I was needing and in the end I felt I chose the right course. When I was originally looking for a TEFL course online, I had no idea what I was looking for or what I was expecting when I joined. This course helped me break down class lessons and taught me valuable English information.

A possible area that could be improved could be the assignment, especially the first assignment. I have not studied for a few years and then all of a sudden was given a huge assignment which was very daunting. I finished it but at first glance there was so much information to take in. But after that first assignment, I was able to use it in later assignments and I had the acknowledge to apply it.

The first couple of units were a lot of information to take in, not an overly bad thing. It just seemed like a lot but it was very useful information but it stuck well. The level of detail was excellent since I have had no previous training as an ESOL teacher. The units got down to the very basics which was helpful in the learning process.

I would recommend this course for anyone. They assist you well with questions, feedback and employmemt afterwards. The course is very well constructed and provides excellent resources, practical exercises and course material. The learning material is put together very well and the student learns all they will need to know when teaching online and abroad. Would definitely recommend and I am so thankful Jesus send this over my path.

With TEFL academy I had a great experience. I’ve learnt many new techniques in teaching. To me, as a teacher, TEFL academy added this different extra spice to my profession. I previously thought that I know almost everything about how to be a good, active, and efficient teacher. But after TEFL, I realized that there is much more to learn. I gained essential, effective, skilful, and competent ways that absolutely can make of you a flourishing, thriving, successful, and golden teacher. And what else does a teacher need more than that?! I briefly can say that TEFL academy gave me an incredible learning experience!

I am very pleased with my overall experience from completing my course through TEFL! From having the convenience to study and work to my own schedule, to the amount of material provided, it was an overall positive experience and I know I now have the tools to be able to successfully use what I learned and apply it to the classroom. Personally, I didn’t have any issues with needing to contact anyone at TEFL while completing my course, but seeing as the feedback given from completing my assignments were helpful and thorough I’m sure there is a responsive and helpful team if you do come across anything that requires help or attention. My last takeaway is that with how the course and exams are structured, it really does feel as though they want you to succeed!
