Wow! What an amazing course! I learned so much and I never felt that the course was boring or too wordy. The information was presented in a fun and engaging way. And I found it truly fascinating.

I was very concerned about the testing phase of each module but I did better than I would ever have imagined. The logical layout, the quirky tips and interactive features made this an unforgettable experience. Thank you, thank you TEFL team – you’ve literally put my money where your EFL knowledge were!

I am so super excited for the next phase of my EFL journey, well done to the TEFL peeps for putting together this awesome program. If you are wondering if you should do a TEFL course, go for it, you won’t be disappointed.

Premier TEFL is a splendid course that will equip you with all the necessary techniques to teach learners and beginners who are willing to learn the English Language. This course is a very normal course which you would enjoy whiles learning. I therefore recommend this course for you as a beginner to the course and trust me you wont regret it because at the end, you would earn a certificate which would allow you teach English Language as a course either online or in person, live in a classroom in every part of the world.

I am just starting the course and haven’t participated in the online sessions yet, but so far, so good. There is an option to listen while you read, to be honest. It helps me stay focused, so I appreciate that. However, the platform can be a bit weird sometimes.

I signed up for the TEFL 180 hours course to improve my teaching. I taught for two years previously but I thought it was the time to upgrade my skills.

The course is divided into three parts, each with 3 to 4 modules each. It starts by giving the foundation of teaching grammar and vocabulary so as to nicely transition to how to teach in practice with practical, helpful tips.

For me personally, I found the modules on materials and teaching adults the most helpful as I teach mostly adults and sometimes struggle to find interesting and engaging materials. The module provides so many tips and websites to explore with free and paid content! I was positively surprised to see an honest evaluation of each resource to use!

In terms of getting around the course – the website and the platform are very intuitive and user-friendly, making it easy to navigate.

I am ahead of my 3rd Assessment. Assessment 1 and 2 were very quickly checked with a thorough feedback provided!

Overall, I really really enjoy the course and it is definitely worth the price! It boosts confidence with young or starting teachers by equipping them with all the foundations and more, they need to start their teaching journey.

I just completed my 310 hour TEFL certification, with an additional 30 hours in IELTS training. Everyone with TEFL Institute is super nice and helpful. I feel they truly put the students’ interests first. It has been lovely working with all of them and I learned a ton! They also try to keep their courses affordable, while at the same time preparing their students for real teaching.

The 10 hours LIVE teaching (online), the instructor, made you feel relaxed and confident that we could take the next steps in our teaching journey. Teaching to peers isn’t the same as a live practice in the classroom to real students. This is where true learning will happen. We had the opportunity to teach to our peers. It was quite short and the feedback very encouraging. However, planning an actual 30-60 minute lesson and teaching a full class will be the true test. I suppose I will learn by doing. This teaching time seemed much too short, which is why I only gave the practice teaching section a 3. Our instructor, however, I would give a 5. She modeled perfectly what and how we should be teaching. In more expensive and face to face classes, one would assume there would be the opportunity to teach to real students in a physical classroom, over many more hours. However, in this online setting, they very much have condensed the information and prepared students as best they can in limited time.

I have never taken such a long online course. This course was very thorough, organized, and drilled the material repeatedly. I appreciated how many resources were offered along the way. There are also some links, that are broken, which happens over time on the internet. But overall students are given a vast range of resources to pursue.

The AI voice is nice, and soothing. At times her inflection is incorrect, which changes the meaning of the words. Occasionally there are grammar mistakes in the content. For this I took off a star for content, for not being perfect.

Thank you TEFL Institute. Everyone has always responded to my emails promptly and solved all my issues. I am grateful for the course you provided!

From start to finish, everything ran extremely smoothly, and it was clear that a lot of thought had gone into making the course content genuinely useful for anyone working toward their TEFL certificate. Lisa honestly saved the day; she supported me every step of the way and made the process of getting a job in South Korea so much less overwhelming.

The support team was always on top of it, replying quickly and ensuring all my questions were addressed. The assessors’ feedback on my assignments was spot-on and showed me exactly where I could improve in each section. Overall, the TEFL Institute’s course was clear, hands-on, and effectively prepared me to teach.

The TEFL course I am currently finishing has definitely activated my previous knowledge in teaching English as a foreign language. I am incredibly greatful for the content of the course, the supportive material and resources and the updated methodologies presented for teaching.

I am truly enjoying and learning more about the global context of teaching and the importance of the English language for students and professionals.

I am very pleased to share my impressions of the TEFL course.

Sincerely,

Luis Vides.
