“Finishing the TEFL course is a milestone for me in my teaching career. All the topics were challenging, but they sharpened my literacy skills. The course showed me ways to teach English, write clear lesson plans, keep the class on track, and use good grammar. I am very determined to put this knowledge into practice in my classroom. I hope to get a job abroad as a TEFL or TESOL teacher. Thanks to the team!”

“I completed my Level 5 course in June 2026 and requested the free physical certificate, but it never arrived and I received no dispatch confirmation. When I followed up in October, I was told it had been posted and that I would need to pay for a replacement. However, no tracking number, postal record, or confirmation email could be provided. I was later told it had been sent on 2 July to an address I only moved to last week. I paid for this course but have still not received my certificate, and I am now being asked to pay again for a document that never arrived. Very disappointing.”

Hi Mehlika, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your certificate hasn’t reached you and that this has been a frustrating experience. Our original certificates are sent by standard Royal Mail, which is an untracked service, so we’re unable to provide a tracking number. We do certainly offer a tracked service but this must be chosen and purchased by the student, which we detail in our terms and conditions. We understand your concerns and appreciate you taking the time to bring this to our attention. We’ll certainly share your feedback with our team. Warm regards, The TEFL Org Team

“I really enjoyed the TEFL course! The materials were easily accessible at any time, making it easy to study at my own pace. The support from my tutor was excellent, and the feedback on my lesson plans was particularly valuable, detailed, and insightful. The constructive comments helped me improve my teaching skills and gain more confidence in lesson planning. I would definitely recommend this course!”

“I enjoyed the TEFL course and did a 250 hour Level 5 online TEFL. The material was flexible, easy to engage with and engaging. I enjoyed the course have learned lots from it. I feel the course could be improved by having a more integrated approach to the demands of teachin English. While one of the aspects that I really enjoyed were how accessible methods like PPP were to learn about and apply, I feel other aspects of the course could gain from a similar treatment. In particular, I think linking TEFL terminology with other more standardised methods and resources, such as those used to identify a srtudents level, would be very useful for learning. I also feel that it would have been very useful to provide have had more lessons on learning about students' specific speaking levels, like more on how to identify this and much more on how to cater lessons to students levels. This would have been helpful, especially for beginners. More examples of how to teach this learner demographic would have been useful, especially through video lessons and structured examples.”

“I was pleasantly surprised at the content of the 120 hour course. Although it was a lot of information, it was well organized and appealed to different learning styles. If I was ever unable to watch the videos, I could read the transcript. The information kept me engaged with quizzes throughout and relevant assignments that I can use in my real life teaching. Highly recommend!”

“The classes and information shared in the course was relevant, and necessary to review grammar foundations as well as basic teaching techniques. The assessment was practical, which helps you use the knowledge in a functional way. Tasks were relevant, however some of them were re-attempted several times due to unclear instructions. I enjoyed the course very much; it was entertaining and despide failing on the written tasks so much, I keep thinking a working on the answer, helping me consolidating important elements from the course.”

“For the most part, my experience with the TEFL Org's 120-hr certification course was perfectly fine, but I was severely disappointed to note how far the quality dropped between units 1-4 and unit 5. The first four units (Grammar, Methodology, Video Observation, and Teaching Large Classes) were perfectly acceptable, but the final unit (Teaching Online) felt like it was made by entirely different people. There were no videos or audio as there had been in the other units, there were no real-life classroom examples, and the sheer amount of praise given to ChatGPT specifically made me skeptical that it was even written by a human. There was a hard right turn from "never use a student's L1 in the classroom, only English" to "use ChatGPT to translate an instruction into a student's native language," something that is especially baffling to me considering the fact that much more reliable translation software than ChatGPT has existed for years and years. There were also several continuity errors in the course itself that could have been easily solved by a simple proofread, so their inclusion implied that it hadn't even been properly edited. At such a high price, I expected much more. However, my interactions with my tutor and other communications from the company have been excellent; the only reason why I even bothered to write a review is because I think the TEFL Org has the resources and ability to improve this unit and take it to the same level of quality that was displayed in the other units. The service is far from irredeemable, and I could definitely see a future in which I would rate it a 5/5, but there is a lot of improvement that needs to happen first. Also, the perpetual sale on the website is a huge red flag and I think significantly hurts the credibility of an otherwise completely reputable organization.”

“I enjoyed the course (huge learning experience) and the 20 hr of virtual classroom was helpful for real teaching experience. I have used zoom in the past,but never as a teaching platform. It would be helpful that before the virtual classroom portion to have a tuturial on the features on zoom. For example, the whiteboard and the share screen feature. Our class had issues when sharing, we would get logged off of zoom or it would be slow when loading, causing delay in teaching. Otherwise good!!”

“The experience was amazing, especially being assigned to a tutor. They mark your assignment within two days and you receive meaningful feedback regardless of you did well or not on the assignment. You still receive detailed feedback and new ideas to explore. I do recommend it. I enjoyed the course.”

“Course was laid out really well with lots of useful information. I particularly liked the later courses on teaching online, as they had useful CV in information. In general, though, the course felt quite dated. The videos themselves were quite old feeling, although that in itself isn't a problem, I felt I turned to Youtube a lot to get more info- and I often found the Youtube videos on the topics more engaging. The forum was a nice idea, but heavily underused. This speaks to a point about engagement. I felt it a little more meaningful interaction with a tutor or community would have been nice. Although the links to the Facebook/discord groups were good. The TEFL Org links to articles and tips to get started are really good, and it's nice to feel supported in that way, especially as a newcomer. On the whole I'm really glad I did the course, I learnt a lot and it's a useful certificate to have.”
