“I’ve only just completed the Grammar course which I found very difficult most of the time. I’m just about the embark on the teaching methodology, perhaps ask me on completion as I’ve had no interaction with anyone as yet.”

“So far, I can say that it's a very interesting course, particularly the study of the teaching structures, as well as the phonology. I haven't put 5 stars though, because of the sound quality of some videos (teachers in classrooms): I couldn't clearly hear what the students were saying, which I guess it's important to fully understand how the teacher respond. I think that little part was a bit neglected by TELF.org. Maybe a mic closer to them could do the job..?”

“My experience with The TEFL Org has been mostly very good so far. The self-directed parts of my course are easy to follow, well laid out, and broken into very manageable pieces. It was very unfortunate that I was not able to complete the 2nd virtual classroom day of my course on the date I had originally booked it for as I am a teacher and return to school soon, so I picked the dates carefully. However, The TEFL Org rescheduled it easily. I enjoyed the 1 virtual classroom day I did - the virtual classroom atmosphere was very positive, learner-centred, and included a high amount of STT, though I believe there was a need for significantly more structured formative feedback in order to improve each of our L2 teaching. And perhaps a reminder to tutors that not everyone who speaks English is English - there are millions of 'English-speaking people' who are not English. As someone who has already trained as a teacher of 2 second languages (Irish and French), I am really enjoying learning how to do the same with my native language of English and am glad I have signed up to The TEFL Org.”

“The tutor, Simon, was very nice and energetic which made for a fairly interesting classroom course. Some parts of the day were a little tedious, such as listening to explanations of things, but the active presentations were helpful.”

“The thing that always catches me of guard in the reason why I end up going over the time limit and having to purchase an extension is because I like the class. I learn a lot but all the ideas are very macro. It’s the big picture but what I feel may help people is a lesson plan section. Like, taking students through making lesson plans. I know the tutor at the end will help you but I feel like maybe making it so that people are practicing it during and getting feedback will help more than just one final assignment at the end. It’s overwhelming. Or maybe have a lesson plan practicum where you can get the feedback on different kinds of scenarios”

“Dear Alan, up to date the only problem which I have encountered is the fact that some modules indicated incomplete although I have done it previously. So I have to redo 3 modules in unit 8 in order for it to be marked down completed. Great lessons, I enjoy the course immensely!”

Hi Anna, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us this review. We are so happy that you are enjoying our course. We'd love to look into this issue of re-doing the modules though, as you shouldn't have to do this. Could you please contact the customer service team at info@tefl.org and they can help resolve this problem. In the meantime, best of luck with your course! Debbie

“The course is relatively simple, and the only complex parts are the lessons where you submit to a tutor, then they provide feedback. As far as the computer marked tests go, if you get a question wrong, it tells you what you got wrong, so it's a matter of trial and error to work it out. The video lessons are helpful, and the course is well put together. I would have liked to pick the relevant modules rather than being forced to do the ones chosen. For instance, tutoring over the telephone has been superseded by Zoom or Skype. Still to receive my certificate, but I'm putting that down to the pandemic. I'd guess it's as good as any other TEFL course out there, but nothing outstanding. I'd be happy if they tighten up their marketing - I'm getting emails to sign up for the course, even after doing so.”

“I’m enjoying the course so far. However it would have been more helpful if classroom examples were used with different levels of English proficiency. For example having classroom examples with absolute beginners. Other than that everything else is good. Thank you.”

“I thought the courses were very good and I enjoyed them - but I never found any TEFL employment online and I basically gave up in the end. Although I have years of teaching experience, they all wanted a minimum of 1 year TEFL teaching experience - and those jobs were to teach 3-5 year olds!”

“TEFL Org are continually evolving to provide useful content and courses for EFL tutors. Last summer I completed their 'online teaching practice' over 3 mornings, which was excellent. It was great to have (remote) face to face contact with the tutor, who was so helpful and encouraging. This summer I have completed the '40 hour online exam preparation course'. The content of this was much drier and therefore a little more hard going. Although there was a mentor who we could contact via email and who also marked our written assignments, it was not as helpful as speaking face to face.”

“Hi I am only on the second module at the moment, but all things considered, I am happy with the course. I am a photographer / videographer by profession and my eye always is drawn to the visual media aspect of things. I would say that your classroom videos could do with some work. Not from the teaching aspect, but from the production. Just an observation. I am looking forward to completing the course. Many thanks Arran”
