“Honestly, this was one of the worst experiences of my life. I would never recommend this course to anyone. I did not feel supported by my tutor Denise, I actually felt that my tutor was cold and very rude. Not a welcoming or warm environment at all, I had to reach out to introduce myself to her and her emails were not very kind but frosty. Not the way a student should be greeted, no “thanks for your email” or “I hope you are well. Regarding your email inquiry” – nothing like that. I got a “Hi” (no name) and rude answers. I felt I was continuously failed unjustifiably because my assignments weren't perfect and exactly the way she wanted them worded. Any minor error, failed. I’m not saying I didn’t deserve a failing grade for some units, of course I did – I’m a student and I’m learning. However, I did feel that I was failed repeatedly (and joyously so) by Denise with little support/encouragement. When I asked Denise if we could speak to clarify (since it was extremely difficult to dissect/understand the written feedback) the answer was no. I feel the feedback I received from my tutor wasn't consistent, it changed during the attempts and was very long running. I had to sit and dissect the information I needed to make the changes only to fail and be told I’m wrong (making me feel stupid). I felt I was shamed for not dissecting her unclear feedback to her standards. Setting a limit of 3 attempts is extremely discouraging to any student, especially when they are being made to feel foolish for not knowing exactly what is needed/expected to pass. I feel the grading practices are not clear, no information shared on the grading structure/requirements to pass. This seems unethical as this is common practice in academia to share this information. I spent 25+ hours on one assignment, 7am to 7pm, (multiple days) going through each word & paragraph meticulously to get it exactly the way I thought my tutor wanted it only to be failed - repeatedly. I had a full-on panic attack and cried nonstop feeling like a complete idiot since I couldn't pass and was trying my absolute hardest. I watched the videos, I took notes, I watched/re-watched. I knew the material. Still, constant failing, discouragement and being made to feel like I’m an idiot for not getting things perfectly done in 3 attempts. Students have different learning styles and different ways of communication and I feel that isn’t acknowledged or valued in this course. Overall, terrible experience. My tutor Denise was rude/cold/unsupportive. I don't feel like this course encourages students but rather sets the expectation that students should be perfect and know everything from watching short videos. It's completely unrealistic and can potentially put students off learning.”

“This course was an amazing experience. I took it as I have become interested in becoming a teacher over the last few years of my undergrad then had the interest to teach abroad after I complete teachers college. I am not enrolled in concurrent education and so my knowledge about teaching was quite minimal. This course taught me so much, it was thorough and well organized and my tutor gave amazing feedback. All the assignments were very manageable as well was the course as a whole. The feedback from my tutor was always honest, constructive and encouraging even when I did not pass assignments the first time. They helped make clear as to what I needed to improve on as to help me understand where I went wrong and improve from my mistakes. I am so happy I decided to take the course and I am incredibly excited for what possibilities await me! I took the 120 hour course, I definitely recommend. And in the future, if there are more in depth courses that cater to my teaching area of interest I will be sure to take them!”

“I have recently completed my TEFL 120 hour course and it was brilliant. I had full support from start to finish. The course is well defined for an online course and very clever in the way they deliver the training. Its 100% simple to follow and the tutor you are assigned to is very helpful and supportive.”

“Was a bit confusing with all the abriveiations and little to no explanation of them.also, for a company that teaches student centered learning, it was VERY teacher/tutor centered. I felt lost and confused a lot and often struggled to get a response from my tutors. Overall, it was doable but could have been much more understabdable.”

“The introduction videos (often less than 20s) are not necessary, in my opinion. Otherwise, I am quite satisfied so far.”
