Just what I've been looking for!

I think this course is great. It is informative, well structured and the materials are relevant. The reading portions are precise and gets straight to the point so the 150 hours course flew by. The 3 assignments that you do on unit 5, 7 and 10 are very doable so long as you write good notes as you read all the units from 1-10. Overall I think this course is good value for money and serves as a great starting point for beginner teachers like me.

I had a great experience with this course. The lessons were clear, well-organized, and easy to understand. I appreciated the flexibility of studying at my own pace while still learning valuable teaching skills.

Interesting Content and Great Communication

The content was very interesting and followed a realistic progression. Communication was great with fast responses. Feedback on assessments was relevant and encouraging. Very happy I went with The TEFL Academy over others. Now looking at the extra content and job opportunities in South East Asia.

The TEFL Academy is the best place to train as an ESL Teacher.

The course was engaging and throught provoking. I enjoyed every bit of it.
It was not too difficult that you can't do it and it was not too simple, you could just do it, rather it was at an optimum level that requires some brainwork.

Excellent, well-structured TEFL course – highly recommended!

I recently completed the TEFL course and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From start to finish, everything was exceptionally well organized and thoughtfully structured. The course materials were clear, practical, and packed with genuinely useful information that I can actually apply in real teaching situations. What stood out most was how responsive and supportive the team was. The whole process felt professional, efficient, and student-centered.Great value and excellent support.

My experience with The TEFL Academy was Excellent

My experience with The TEFL Academy was very good in many ways. The material is neatly and clearly presented. There were 10 different units and each unit and 3 sub-units and these sub-units has small exercises to see if we have understood the lesson.
The end of lesson tests were also very good. It required us to think and then answer. The assignments submitted were corrected with feedback given and sent back within 2-4 days.
On the whole, I recommend this Academy if we want to become a English as a foreign language tutor.

The TEFL Academy made it easy to learn how to teach, things were not over complicated and they always gave the option for more help if you still did not understand some of the work. They had people go over your assignments and they made sure they offered help in every way possible so that you could pass and be able to teach.
