“The videos are fine and easy to follow. The feedback I got from my tutor was not only completely inconsistent with how the videos teach you to teach but it was also inconsistent when I resubmitted the assignments. It was as if he wanted me to fail a few times so he kept changing the bits of the essay that were wrong. I don’t think I’m Ready to Teach after this course as it’s completely baffling. I passed so will go on to further my skills elsewhere. I already teach in a uni which made the experience even more confusing as the feedback made No sense in any teaching capacity. I Wouldn’t recommend this course unless you’re not serious about teaching abroad and just want a bit of fun”

“Useful skills! Content was a little bit dated in parts. Online learning platform was also a little bit clunky and glitchy. I look forward to exploring the utility of the TEFL certfication both locally in my home country of Australia and abroad in due course.”

“I think the grammar and methodology courses were really useful for beginners; they were detailed, easy to follow and very informative. However, I think the telephone teaching and large classroom courses should have been more detailed. I would have found it more helpful to have more example lesson plans and a video of an example lesson. This would have made the assignments easier to complete.”

“I appreciate having an affordable option from an accredited organization to earn a TEFL Certificate. I found the grammar section acceptable, and the explanations of the different teaching methodologies acceptable, but overall this course stayed rather surface-level.”

“The course itself did contain a lot of useful information and details regarding teaching. However I do believe the tutor assigned to myself intentionally didn't let me pass so I have to pay for extensions and use more money on the course.”

“I think the program was overall OK. I found a series of grammarical/punctuational errors throughout the presentations and text, which I'm happy to provide editing for in exchange for free classes. The tutor I had was nice, but I wish I would have gotten more detailed feedback on certain assignments, both positive and negative feedback. I haven't yet used the job search function so I can't rate that as of yet.”

“TEFL Org provides a comprehensive version of the TEFL course online with clear, general explanations and observational learning through classroom videos. Its monotonous display and website formatting could use some visual enhancement. The organization of the course content could also be improved. Increasing detailed guidelines and footnoted material would also help. The video instruction sometimes gave self-explanatory information while sounding pedantic. The course method encouraged much hands-on learning. You have to figure out a lot of stuff yourself. But I don't like this feeling that it's like I didn't learn anything.”

“It’s all on line you wait 48 hours for a reply to your work. There is 2 days only face to face. . If you don’t have a teaching background you may struggle. I found it very solitary and did not enjoy it. I struggled with some of it mainly unit 12. After doing this course I realise I do not like online learning and although I “passed” it means nothing in the bigger picture of confidently teaching English. I think improvement can be made with more face to face teaching every 8 weeks at an additional cost. If this were available I would have done it”

“The content was good, but I found it a little redundant at times. There were many parts where I was hoping for more in-depth information or more explicit examples of the topics covered. My biggest concern were the number of production notes that were left in the course. I reported in three or four instances where the content wasn’t present at all and instead had notes for it to be added.”

“The course was okay. I managed to learn a lot in 7 weeks. I did not like the video quality. I could often not hear the students speaking in the classroom videos. So I just read the text instead. But sometimes the text showed "inaudible." So clearly this could be improved. My tutor marked my assignments within 48 hours as promised, there was ample resources, the price was good and overall this was a decent experience.”

“I felt the training was helpful, but I wish it was more interactice specifically on the Grammar module which was VERY long and not interesting at all. I liked the modules that we had to submit and type lesson plans for. Having a tutor review and make suggestions made the modules feel more like a real class.”

“Hi, I have completed the 40 hour English teaching online course. After completion I feel like I have not gained much over sight as to teach a lesson online. There was a few videos examples but the 'students' in the videos were clearly native English speakers and they knew exactly what the teacher was saying. I feel like this does not show the reality of teaching online to non native English speakers. I feel like I do not have the confidence going forward to pursue teaching English online. The module on how to set up my website and thorough enough and that was excellent advice and it gave me all the resources I needed.”

“I thought it was a good course overall. I found the more complex grammar points to be a bit confusing and not well explained, but the other units were good. As a US citizen hoping to work in Europe, the list of potential jobs (ie ones that will apply for a work permit) is negligible, so unfortunately I’m not sure I’ll be able to utilize their job placement help…”

“Structure of the course was cohesive and Information was delivered well through videos. Quizzes were a bit too easy in my opinion and could be more challenging. Sadly the tutor feedback was often times mainly copy-paste, not really catering to the specifics of my answers, in which I put a lot of effort. Also, even if the assignment was passed, there sometimes was little to no positive feedback. Apart from that the assignments were good exercises.”
