“The course was very challenging probably if i compare the course to other course providers the difficulty might be the same level. Feedbacks were really helpful. If i didn't know where I failed that would be so scary but since i knew where i made a mistake i wasn't scared this made the course bearable. And the tutors that gives feedback are really so kind. The course improved my writing skills.(Be prepared for that lol. I think that's the most important skill i got from this course.) Since if i had to teach in person to medium size classes the course would be amazing but I'm mostly interested in online teaching so the only part that really helpful for me was online teaching part so be careful when you choose a course if you can pick online teaching or something if it's accepted and well respected i would recommend choosing the course that you need. But i wanna make one critisim. Online teaching (telephone teachine) part was so little there were many assignments for each unit but this one only had one that's a shame i would expect at least 2 assignment from this. Instead of Large classes because probably no one is gonna teach to 60 students but it's more possible people work online to teach. Also the course cannot be completed "easily" if the students English level is low i would say at least B2 level in everything speaking, writing, reading, listening. I had no problem with that part because I'm half native since I'm using only English in my life. I recommend the course to anyone who wants to be an English teacher in a normal class in person.”

“I found the course pretty good, but the process of getting certified after the course is not. First off, I finished the entire course only to learn three weeks later that it wasn't done because not all of the pages were marked as "read". I marked them all as "read" in about five minutes. It's now been perhaps I week or two, and I still don't have any certificate. I would need to find out if I can even get any decent work with no degree and your certificate before I can really form an opinion.”

Thank you Elmer for your 4 star rating of The TEFL Org. I'm sorry to hear about the issues you had during the process of getting certified. Now that you will have received your course completed email, you will normally receive your certificate within 2 weeks of this. Certificates for level 5 courses can take up to two weeks to process. This is to ensure that the internal and external checking process is completed and that your feedback from us meets the awarding bodies strict criteria. Congratulations on completing your course and we wish you the best of luck in your TEFL journey!

“It was well structured and the information given was well explained so I could complete tasks well. Joanna was my tutor and her feedback was always clear and she always gave me another lesson plan example which was great to read after completing a specific assignment. Overall I had fun completing this course and acquired so many new skills!”

“I wish there was a way that we could communicate better with the people correcting our work. Sometimes I really did not understand the feedback and I could not really talk to them to explain my answers. Also when you think outside of the box with activities they will correct you wrong which I do not understand. Overall was fine though. Also I wish there was a unit on how to mark things, this course was giving more how to tutor than be a teacher.”

“I wholeheartedly enjoyed the 200-hour Online Diploma Course I purchased! I was able to complete the course in around two months thanks to constant studying and quick tutor feedback. I can't wait to start teaching, although I know I still have lots to learn on the more practical side of it.”

“A very thorough and well structured course, academically the 120 hr is more challenging once you start on the assignments, online is very convenient but don’t underestimate the self discipline required to make a success of it, I completed mine in 11 weeks.”

“I thought the TEFL course was very good. It wasn't difficult for me but content-rich. Part way through the Methodology course I got a little demotivated because I was worried about the time frame for completion but then discovered that three of the courses were a lot shorter. It would have been good if the intro had mentioned that. You could move through the material at a good pace and all the videos kept it interesting. The least interesting were some of the classroom ones but after a while, I was more engaged by them. The quizzes were great. I made a point of going back and re-doing if I didn't get 100%, which I think helped everything sink in. I think more clarification could be brought to the difference between controlled practice and free production. As someone else reviewed, there was a contradiction in the Methodology course about chain stories. At first, I was thrilled to receive 100% on assignments but after the third time, I clicked that 100% was basically saying that I had understood and had passed. I would have preferred to get 80%, 92% and so on and I would have liked to have had a grade on my certificate (Fail, Pass, Merit, Distinction). Also, there were multiple clicks to get the feedback on the assignments, which I didn't realise initially. It is great to be able to download parts of the course for future reference. Overall, I really enjoyed the course and felt motivated by it. Thanks!”

“The course was extremely thorough and included tons of demos and video examples. My tutor was very quick to respond and provided exceptional feedback and examples which helped me improve my own lesson plans. I feel very confident to start teaching! My only note for improvement is to clean up the typos and punctuation inconsistencies as there were quite a few throughout the whole course.”

“Generally i thought the assignments were good, the quizzes were a bit too easy, you dont really have to go through all of the theory in order to pass them, which is good on one hand because you finish more fast, but if you are looking to actually proof the knowledge learned, maybe the questions have to be a bit more challenging. I thought the course would be more interactive, so maybe with skype or any video call, so that the teacher can give more specific feedback and also because writing a lesson plan and holding a lesson with presence and in live are two very different things. Overall it gave me a good general base for starting to teach online and for volonteering in classes abroad.”

“I liked it a lot, I think the lessons are very well explained and easy to remember. The down side for me is how stressful it is the process of the quizzes and the tasks because of the 3 attempts, and also with the tasks that I find that of the questions were not as clear or specific as they should have been, and then I answered what it was asked and the tutor failed me and asked me for some extra information that not always was stated on the questions.”
