The advice and rips from the tutor
The advice and tips from the tutor. The videos and the fact you could also download the course and foĺlow it on your own time. Sometimes it wasn't easy to make out what the students were saying because of audio issues, backs turned to the camera for example.

Superb but Curious
The educational experience was superb. However, I am having trouble accessing my TEFL certificate. I have emailed the TEFL support team and have had no response from them. My tutor also forwarded my email about this to them. Still, no response. I also sent an email about consulting with an advisor and have had no response. So, my hope is that someone reviewing this review might be able to help me with these matters. Thanks.

We’re always happy to help, but we can only assist with enquiries linked to verified TEFL Org accounts and courses. Hopefully we can get this sorted for you ASAP!
What I enjoyed the most was the module…on methodology.
What I enjoyed the most was the module on Methodology. I took my time to comprehend how to plan lessons using PPP and ESA plans which were different from what I have been using. Both plans have come in useful for me in lesson planning and delivery. Also, allowing more of STT while reducing TTT has greatly improved my students enthusiasm in class. Though, I would suggest that more videos on large class management be included. Overall, I greatly enjoyed my training with you guys. Thanks so much!

Acquired a lot of useful and applicable knowledge
I feel better educated in my grammar and more informed on lesson planning, I learned a lot.
The written assignments were very applicable and a good challenge to get me to think of what I ought to do in my lessons to effectively teach English.

Business English on Tefl.org
I have recently finished Business English certification on Tefl.org. The interface was quite friendly and the course was easy to follow. At the end, in order to be eligible for the certificate, I had to pass 2assignments. The submission of the assignment was pretty easy. The tutor provided feedback very quickly and everything went smooth. Now I have requested hardcopy of my certificate and waiting for it to be posted. Fully recommend!

Cheap course = Low standard course
I'm half way through and so far not impressed. Firstly, their forever "sale price" it's always on sale, so don't be fooled.
Secondly, well you get what you paid for, cheap course= low standard course. You are expected to add the obvious each time (ie: "student role: the student should practice" or "teacher role: the teacher should implement this") .. it's basic, if it's not obvious to everyone that teacher should teach and student should study, then there is a big problem!
I also requested if it was possible to extend because of several factors that I won't disclose but that are certainly a valid reason, I was asked to provide proof!... of an ongoing difficult issue. I might still make it on time, but very poor to have so little empathy.

Before I participated with TEFL, I didn't understand grammar too well. This website actually taught all of it and I'm very happy to have learned from TEFL. I will highly recommend this to anyone wanting to earn their way into teaching English.

My course went really well
My course went really well. The lessons are clear, full of examples, and activities to illustrate the lessons. I didn't feel alone and didn't hesitate to ask questions. My tutor replied really fast and with explanations that resonated with him. This was really fun to do and challenging. I really liked the presence of my tutor. Made me feel safe in the knowledge that If I wasn't sure, tgey were there.

Excellent experience
Well laid out course, easy and straightforward to access. Great resources available. Example lesson plans were so handy during assignments. Thorough and constructive feedback from Thomas. The smallest complaint I have - I paid for an extension to my course due to the holiday period; I found out later from a fellow student that explaining to my tutor in advance would’ve been enough to waive that fee. Excellent experience overall.

I completely fell in love with this…
I completely fell in love with this course because of how easy and well organized it is. Everything is explained clearly, and after each part or section there are videos and quizzes that really help you check your understanding. If something is not clear, you can always go back and review the material or retry the quizzes, which makes learning stress free and effective.
What makes this course even better is the tutor support. You are followed throughout the entire course, and the tutor is always available to give advice, guidance, and encouragement from the beginning to the end. The support feels personal and genuinely helpful.
I completed the PREMIER 120-hour TEFL course, and it was an amazing experience. I finished it very quickly because everything flowed smoothly and was easy to follow. Another great advantage is the payment option through Klarna, which allows you to pay in installments instead of all at once.
Overall, this course was exactly what I was looking for. It is a great learning experience, the certificates are worldwide recognized, and the process is simple and accessible. I am already planning to enroll in more courses to earn additional certificates.

120-hour course.
I began the 120-hour course in October 2025 and completed the 5 modules in mid-January 2026. The modules were informative, easy to understand, and provided me the education I will need to begin pursuing my English teaching journey. My online tutor (Angie White) was responsive, provided helpful feedback on my assignments, and never failed to provide praise along the way.

Both excellent and poor
The live online weekend was excellent:
-teacher prepared
-instructions
-process
-flow
-varied interactive groups
-delivering the learning as a team
The on demand learning was average to poor. Poor production quality of the videos, some quiz questions confusing, the blond teacher with short had poor speaking skills reading cue cards. The content was and learned what I needed to.

A waste of time and money
Unfortunately the exam prep course offered no actual teaching insights or resources that can’t all already be found online for free.
Essentially you’re paying around 80 euros for an official certificate and that’s it.

We’re sorry to hear that the Exam prep course didn’t meet your expectations. The course is designed to teach already trained TEFL teachers how to assess what their students’ current level of English is, and create lessons that will help them with their English proficiency tests. While some content may be available online, the value of the course lies in its structured guidance, practice materials, quizzes and assignments, and the official certificate that proves your qualification to future employers.
We always aim to be clear about what each course offers, and we appreciate your comments as they help us continue to improve the experience for future students.

I was impressed that the 120 TEFL course was so well formatted. I really enjoyed the process of learning because they did such an excellent job at teaching it. Their customer service is excellent. They reply so quickly to emails! Also whenever I submitted a paper, they graded it so quickly. It was wonderful to actually be able to move forward in the class without waiting for my paper to be graded. Their website is very user friendly.
