My name is Yevheniia and I would like to share my impressions on 10 hour Virtual TEFL course, held by Michelle Benson. The course is really useful for both native and fluent speakers as well as it is really practical, productive and wonderfully structured. The material is taught in a very professional manner, fulfilling all the requirements students have. Everyone on the course had an opportunity to teach a lesson and gain experience on how it is to be a TEFL teacher. The atmosphere was truly amazing and positive. I certainly recommend this course as a part of big courses provided by TEFL institute professional team.

The 10-hour Virtual Teaching Methodologies course enabled us to experience all we learned in our online courses. Michelle Benson led us through the course with kindness, good humour and expertise. Her explanation of all 13 grammatical tenses is second to none!We were fortunate to be a small group and I thoroughly enjoyed the group interaction; a lovely change after working with an AI voice on previous courses. Thank you.

I just completed my 10-Hour TEFL Teaching Course, and I must say that it’s an outstanding job by Michelle Benson for guiding us and providing techniques on how to improve our teaching skills. What sets this course apart from the others I’ve taken is the sheer excitement and fun infused into every session.

The feedback we received was beyond outstanding. Michelle’s approach to discussion is not just informative but also incredibly engaging. It wasn’t your typical, awkward classroom setting; it was a lively and interactive experience.

I can’t express how much I’ve gained from this course. Kudos, Michelle! 🎉👏

From start to end the TEFL 10 hour methods in teaching course was phenomenal. The techniques and guidance that Kate Popova provided us with are incredible. I feel as though I will be able to deliver a class (both online and in person), with confidence and success.

If anyone is considering the course, I feel as though it would benefit you greatly to put your techniques into practice. Especially since you are provided feedback to progress, therefore enhancing your teaching skills.

Thanks again Kate!

Overall the course was very enjoyable. Kate (Popova) was very welcoming and soon dispelled any nervousness on our part. As a group we bonded quickly and were supportive of each other. Concepts were clearly explained and feedback was constructive. I believe we would have benefited from another attempt at the classroom practice putting feedback into effect. The course summary contained Job Assistance element which was informative and presented in a interesting manner.

To date, I’ve completed the 180 hour Level 5 Diploma, and the 10 hour virtual teaching course, and so far I’m very impressed by what the TEFL Institute has to offer. The 180 hour course is very thorough, covering all aspects of language learning, and though it is challenging, it is also hugely enjoyable.

The 10 hour Virtual Teaching course was something I was apprehensive about taking part in – mostly because of having to spend hours online – but unexpectedly, it turned out to be a really fun and inspiring experience. The main contributor to this was the very gifted teacher trainer, Michelle Benson, who motivated and encouraged us all the way through. It is clear that she has a passion for teaching, and that was transmitted to everyone involved. I would recommend the 10 hour Virtual Teaching course as essential training for all new teachers. I feel much more confident about my teaching abilities as a result of taking part in it.

The TEFL Institute is overall very well organised, with dedicated staff and a lot of backup resources and information. Highly recommended!

I’ve just completed my 120 hour TEFL Course. What I really like about the TEFL Institute is that it really gives you value for money as I received two extra complementary courses (30 Hour Teaching Young Learners Course AND the Mindfulness & Yoga for Early Childhood Educators) in addition to the 120 hour course. That shows me that TTI wants to equip one wholistically.

The courses and the platform are user-friendly and not overly complicated. It’s really great that you can complete the course at your own pace. Good choice for aspiring EFL/ESL teachers.

Now, I’m ready for my new adventure!

I just completed the 120 hour Tefl teaching course at the Tefl Institute and the thing that surprised me the most was how much I enjoyed it.

I did quite a bit of research before selecting this course, and I wasn’t disappointed. It answered all my questions and taught me all sorts of interesting information apart from the obvious. Whilst the grammar lessons were particularly helpful, it also helped me to understand the emotional and psychological reasons for why studying English is so important to so many people.

I feel it has given me a good foundation as a newbie English teacher and I plan to build upon in the future, starting with another of their courses.

I have just completed the 120-hour TEFL course and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. I researched lots of TEFL companies on the web but the TEFL Institute website looked the most professional, I asked for somebody to call me on their live chat and within 10 minutes somebody called and took me through everything so I signed up.

I did the same with the recruitment department once the course was finished Tuesday of last week sure enough on Thursday they called me back and put me in touch with four schools.

All that I can say is they are very professional.
