I completed the online TEFL UK course in 2019 as a prerequisite for starting my online teaching job with a Chinese company. I must admit that as a qualified teacher with over 20 years of experience, 10 of which have been teaching ESL in Korea I conceitedly believed that I was just jumping through hoops to get a qualification in something I was more than capable of doing already. However I thoroughly enjoyed the course. It was informative, and even humorous. I enjoyed the topics covered and how they were set out. I learnt a few new teaching techniques some of which I have incorporated in to my classroom already. I enjoyed the different methods of putting information across, and the small review tests which highlighted the important pieces of information. Overall, well worth the effort and a slice of humble pie for me to eat as I remind myself that you are never too old to learn.

Beyond my expectations, it was a remarkable educational experience. I was quite satisfied with the caliber of instruction, thoroughness of the course material, and exceptional assistance offered by TEFL UK from the time I joined until the end of the program. The course materials were organized nicely and included information on a variety of subjects that are crucial for teaching English as a foreign language. The information was provided in a straightforward and succinct manner, making it simple to comprehend. Each session, whether it was about lesson planning, classroom management, or language skill development, offered insightful information and useful tactics that I could use right away in a classroom setting. The course's participatory format was one feature that really stood out. The use of videos, tests, and interactive exercises among other multimedia components by TEFL UK improved the learning experience. I was able to easily go through the modules and properly track my progress because of the platform's user-friendliness.

I felt like the course was ok. I felt like the course content itself was very thorough and accurate, and easy to understand and follow. The structure was good. However, the course itself was basically just many pages of text, which I didn't find super engaging and I don't retain information well like that. In contrast, other courses (non-TEFL) I have done have been made up of mostly videos and presentations which I find much easier to follow and remember content from. There were some videos in this course, however, they were only a minute long usually, and the speaker was obviously memorising a very specific script and it sounded very scripted so these weren't engaging at all for me, and didn't include any visuals or detailed explanations. They were just introductions to the next topic. I found the quizzes and tests after each topic very useful. I think some activities related to trying to make your own lesson plan I think could be useful. Or more difficult questions related to grammar. I completed the 120-hour course, and am spending time now that I have started teaching English online, going through my notes and the course again to review grammar. It's great to be able to do that. However, I would also quite like to find another course to do that has more engaging video content to help solidify my grammar knowledge. I suppose a lot of being a teacher is self-study of grammar as well, however, I would love to do a course that gives me this extra level of support.

Over the summer, I started off on a journey to discover my prospects and possible interest in teaching as a career. Some of this motivation was intrinsic, but I did have friends, my supervisor and even family prompting me towards exploring the possibility in a world where I only know few people that want to be teachers. I decided to take a few courses to check my interest, as well as, aid my transition from being a full time researcher into practical teaching. One of the course which I undertook was the 170 hr TEFL UK course which included 20 hrs of supervised teaching practice. Over the course of 3 months, I learned that I do have a strong desire to teach. I did learn a lot of relevant skills I believe I would use as an ESL teacher or teacher of any subject frankly, however, I would say the most rewarding part of my journey was being able to volunteer my time towards supporting TEFL UK in empowering Ukrainian refugees by teaching them English as a second language, and seeing how this enabled these displaced individuals integrate with the society they found themselves in. My hope is to continue to find fulfilment on this journey of learning and educating wherever it takes me. I do think this might be my little way to touch the world positively, one mind at a time. I would recommend TEFL UK to any education enthusiast who would consider teaching English or in English language for sure!

I worked with TEFL UK in my process of getting a job with EPIK to teach English in South Korea. I loved my experience working with them. When I first registered for their TEFL course, they were quick to respond to me and assign me a coordinator to help me with my job placement and act as a recruiter for me. Her name was Lisa! She was also very kind and quick to respond. The courses themselves were well organized and I felt I had a lot to gain as the courses were very insightful. Not only did I learn about the principles of teaching, but I learned about how to overcome different challenges I would be facing abroad. Once my courses were completed, Lisa helped me as I arranged my job interviews. She acted as a liason for me. Upon receiving my job offer in South Korea, TEFL UK and Lisa remained there to help me. Even now their offers to assist me in any way are standing. I highly recommend going through TEFL UK! As an English teacher now, I use those things they taught me. 10/10 experience!

Got a nice deal on my course on Groupon, chipped away at it over a few months and just got it completed. It’s a very well made course, nice website with no glitches. You have a few short multiple choice exams, like 5 or 6 questions for each topic, but you only need like 60/70 to pass and you can resit them like 3 times. I like how this company is accredited too. The certificate looks good but the price for a physical copy isn’t exactly cheap. Can’t complain the pdf is free anyway. Would recommend this place.

I have been teaching English online for five years and it took me a while to choose a professional and accredited TEFL course. I have read many articles, done research on the internet, and watched various videos on youtube where ESL teachers spoke about TEFL courses. That's when I discovered TEFL UK and decided to start my TEFL journey! I have completed my 120hr Professional TEFL course and 20hr Teaching English Online course. While attending my courses I loved the professional, yet casual explanations they use. TEFL UK has an extraordinary style of helping ESL teachers to improve their teaching skills. Their learning materials are easy to understand, and their videos to present various teaching styles are amazing. Also, I must mention that their staff is very friendly, supportive and reliable. Thank you so much for everything! I recommend TEFL UK to all teachers, natives and non-natives, with and without teaching experience! :)

I am happy that I took the course. Everything in the course study is rather easy to retain with reading through the chapters and taking your time on the exam questions. The certificates really do help with job offers if this is the direction you would like to take for 3 months abroad or longer. Shane Camp

I took this course as a job requirement. I studied Linguistics and TESOL in college and grad school, so I thought it would be easy. But I actually learned many new methods and teaching ideas. I'm glad I took this course.

My name is Nataliia and I am from Ukrine. I have been in the teaching profession for more than 30 years and have extensive teaching experience. I have completed 220hr Specialist (Business English Included) TEFL. It is exactly the type of course I was looking for. Now I would like to tell you why exactly I liked the course. I learned new skills in teaching grammar, in creating good lesson plans and in creating a rapport with the class. I looked from a different angle on how to keep students motivated. I learned some proper ways of doing board work and ways to include teaching aids in the lessons. What I especially liked about the course is its structure, simple language, videos, sample lessons and questions at the end of each module. The course enabled me to learn some new ‘trade secrets’. I extend my thanks to the people who created this wonderful course. And it is so good that we have lifetime access to course materials. No doubt, I will look at the course again and again. If somebody asks me if this course is worth it, my answer will be “Heck yes”.

TEFL is the kind of course that will guarantee you a job in any capacity because of the quality of the course. This is not an easy course to undertake, however, if you are serious then honestly it will be the best decision you ever made. You have the support you need and the encouragement. especially when you feel you cannot continue because suddenly it gets challenging. I would recommend TEFL UK to anyone interested in teaching English as an ESL. Best decision I ever made.

I found the course engaging enough, although a little dry in some places. My daughter did your course several years ago now, and while some additions may have been made, the basic core material is unchanged and needs a visual refresh. I think that as technology moves on so quickly, recorded videos and styles change rapidly and your website and video presentation lack a modern, youthful eye-catching 'trendiness' making them begin to look dated. And I will add that I am a mature learner, not a 20-something. So I think for your younger target market, it must look a bit lame. I found the Business module better in presentation, detail and content that the Core modules. In the core modules questions were sometimes asked when that particular content had not necessarily been covered. Finally, I also think it should be made clear that the end of module tests are ACTUALLY the 'final' tests. I know that there were 'in-module' trial questions, and I realise that the 'end of module tests' were just that. However, I still thought that my actual certificate would be earned after a big, FINAL test. Therefore, when completing my module tests, I wasn't always that bothered about my answers, and would have been far more careful (and maybe passed with better than 'pass') if I had known that they were the final tests. Other than that, I enjoyed the course. I hope though, that you are currently building an update on the materials and their presentation.
