Overall the course was great and really useful. Only issue was how short some of the assignments were - it would be more helpful to be able to be more in depth in all assignments. I found the bigger assignments much more beneficial. My tutor got everything back to me quickly and was very helpful. Only other note would be that the telephone teaching module seemed really outdated as online teaching is now extremely common.

Thank you Phoebe for your 4-star rating of The TEFL Org! We're glad to know that the overall course was great and proved to be useful. We also appreciate your feedback on the telephone teaching module as well. We are still finding though, that many people around the world don't have easy access to the internet or still use Skype etc. We try to make sure that our courses cover this so that teachers have the tools to provide English lessons to everyone, no matter where they are in the world. Thanks again and all the best with your TEFL career!

Thank you for your message. I enjoyed the course as I believe I learned a lot of useful concepts. One thing I would have liked to have had is a list of suggested further reading. Perhaps a book on how to design resources since it appears that most of the resources will be authentic and not out of a textbook. That is the only thing I would add. The payment and sign up was easy and the assessments were straight forward.

Theory lessons are very effective. Classroom videos are very nice but need more voice clarity of students ineraction to get better clarity on the discussions. Feedback of assignment provides good guidance. A few lesson plan structure could be of more help. Overall experience of TEFL is superb.

So far, I have completed the 20-hour virtual weekend course. The content was really excellent! However, I would like to mention, IMO, that content is only as good as the tutor who delivers it. For example; I have (we all have) come across the Tenses many times, and from many sources, but our tutor's personality, his original and unique way of presenting the content was clear, easy to understand, and...well...just fantastic! It was a real pleasure, and inspiring, to be guided by him throughout the course. His personality, intellect, experience, knowledge, and methods are worthy of praise !! His feedback was honest and constructive, and helped everyone in the group to gain the confidence they needed to improve their teaching skills. Priceless! [Thank you, Steve.] If you are if any doubt about this course, my advice is; Don't be! Jump unhesitatingly onboard! You shouldn't regret it !! I highly, HIGHLY recommend. ...Best... !!

I did the 150 hour course and found it very helpful to have the combination of class and online. Our tutor was great and super engaging. I do feel I would have got more out of the class if I'd gone through the whole online course prior to in person class so that could be a suggestion for the future.

I found the course to be quite easy, if somewhat time-consuming, and I thought that the video lectures were very professionally made, and that I learned quite a lot. I have already started working as a TEFL teacher part-time and the course was a big help in achieving my goals.

The 120 hour course was really education, had a good selection of modules and different learning points. It was very inclusive to a range of different backgrounds. My tutor was fantastic throughout, gave really good feedback and even included some extra tips or resources for me. This would be excellent for a starting teacher as getting to grips with lesson plans can be difficult. Only improvement would be to revise the word count, particularly on the shorter assignments. You’re very limited on what you can actually say in 75 words, I think people starting out with teaching would struggle with these. The feedback I got with the additional tips were already points I would have wanted to say, just couldn’t fit them into my answer and although I was able to answer them well first time, it was difficult to limit yourself especially with the nature of the questions. The assignments themself were great, very relevant however the word counts I think need to be changed slightly. Maybe make 75 words the minimum and 150 the maximum? Having minimum word limits would be good for starting off teachers too. Altogether it was a great course.

A complete course, with a good foundation in grammar, and extensive training in methodology and pedagogy focusing on student centred. The grammar is very well structured, building the concepts as pieces of a building that is completed and expanded in depth. The methodology is well documented with the great support of the tutor, who analyzes your work in depth and helps you with commentaries, giving additional resources. The modules in teaching large groups, video observation, and telephone courses, are also very interesting. I have learned and enjoyed the course and it is an unbeatable platform to start your adventure as a foreign language teacher.

When I started the course, my main objective was to learn about English grammar. It was a nuisance that I also had to learn about how to plan a lesson and about learning theory, etc. But the techniques I've learned (encouraging students to self-correct, peer-correct, learning about concept questions, consciously thinking about where to elicit, where to do something active, different approaches to teaching speaking, listening, reading, and writing, learning how to create an environment where students feel safe, learning about options I can use like realia, visual aids, feely bags, etc.) have made me a much better teacher. (I've been teaching English for a few months on a voluntary basis). It is very different teaching large groups, teaching online, etc. and I'm glad the course anticipated the problems I might run into for me. Also the feedback provided for the essay parts of it was really constructive. It helped me understand points that weren't making sense before. The only thing that is a bit annoying is that it's difficult to navigate the course bundles available to download at the end. It's not easy to locate the '79-Hour Methodology Course Resources' pdf if you don't save it immediately. Overall, though, really good.

Fantastic course. There was a lot of information to process however, there was help if needed all the way. I am already starting to use my new skills as the course has allowed me to progress in my current job. I would recommend the course to anyone thinking of teaching. Units are nicely set out and easy to understand. There are also many knowledge checks on the way to check your progress. I found this helpful. My tutor was very quick in responding and all feedback received helped me through the course. Thank you.

I like the course and the way it's structured. I've already wrote some thoughts about particular courses in their respective feedback sections, but in general I can say that if you can add some video explanations to the assignments it would be really helpful. By that I mean add some video examples of assignment works, not only the written ones. Also, the feedback on your mistakes and errors could be more informative. You get explanations from the tutor, and it's great, but when it's quizzes and not a tutor marked assignment you barely know what was exactly wrong, very uninformative to be honest.
