“I recently completed the 120 hour premiere online Tefl Course with The TEFL Org. I have been wanting to do a TEFL course for many years and am so pleased this online option was available. I liked that you could work at your own pace from home. This was a well balanced course using many different teaching methods. I particularly enjoyed the video classroom examples from TEFL Org teachers. It also covered 5 different areas of TEFL Teaching useful for covering all potential teaching areas. I think the quizzes and assignments in each module were a very good idea to help recall what was taught in the lesson. Tutors Alex & Arthur were very quick at marking assignments and providing useful feedback and alternative ideas/lesson plans. Thank you to all at TEFL Org, I look forward to putting what I have learned into practice.”

“Great course challenging in places but you get your own personal tutor (mine was Arthur who was excellent and brimming with clever ideas for teaching). The online element worked really well with quizzes to check understanding and assignments. It was complemented by a 3 day classroom experience with the excellent Asif who was a great facilitator to take us through what works and what to avoid. Thanks Asif.”

“On the course information provided, I had a generally positive experience with The TEFL Org and would rate it 4 out of 5. The videos could benefit from being updated and some information was not necessary, but overall, I found the course to be good. It was hard to get back into studying after 35 years .I did it, so lets see what the future holds.”

“Classroom videos in particular were well done and helpful, with teachers modeling instruction and interaction with students. Would have been helpful to see a classroom video for teaching large classes and teaching telephone classes. Appreciated that I could read the script for the non-classroom videos. Tutor feedback was prompt and useful. Presentation with woman & man narrators got a bit dry and boring after awhile but not sure how to spice it up. Nice to have download option.”

“The overall experience was brilliant. Being an older student, I felt that the review information on verbs was challenging and needing to be more in depth. There were things that I was expected to already know that I never learned in school. Also there was one written assignment in the third course I think (it's been a minute) that required me to do some research outside of TEFL because the required information wasn't in the video demonstrations.”

“Dear Tefl, I enjoyed doing the TEFL online course. However, as you have asked me to review the course I will be honest and give you my feedback. I think you need to update the course that you are currently putting out online because of these reasons: The quality of the camera recording is poor. I think you were using one fixed camera and consequently, the students were facing away or at the side of the camera. This made it difficult to interpret what they were saying. The written text beneath each of the teaching sessions was inadequate. You have used some sort of auto-speech technology to write up what was being said. This app sometimes fails to identify words that have been spoken by a foreign accent and there are far too many 'mmm's and ahh's.' Someone should have checked it for accuracy as it comes across as slapdash. I loved doing the assignments and would like to have done more, as after all, this is where the real learning happens. Perhaps you could introduce them within the very first module. The resources page could be more comprehensive and give more pointers on where to go to get things that a TEFL teacher will need. It would be helpful to include the number of expected hours each module will take to complete, as some of them are a lot longer than others. Does the teaching of phonics in English primary schools have any relevance to TEFL? I think that TEFL. org could take a good look at the current practice and see how their phonemic teaching would benefit. Hope this all helps. Overall, I loved the course and would happily do it all again.”

“Some good advice about lesson stage planning, needs more focus on appropriateness of grammar/vocab use in class because a lot of the applicants were struggling with matching the level of language to the level of the imaginary students. Lesson planning in pairs is difficult because a lot of time is wasted on task allocation and trying to connect sections.”

“I was very happy with the course, which seemed to me to be pitched at just the right level - certainly demanding, but by no means too daunting. I received excellent support throughout from the tutor I was assigned, and I'd like to make special mention of the virtual classroom course, which really helped the penny to drop for me, thanks to a fantastic teacher.”

“I felt the course was really excellent especially the in person sessions. The quality of the teaching throughout was consistently good and covered a huge range of concepts very effectively. The only reason I didn't go with 5 stars is because I felt that the cost to extend the subscription was far too expensive. The course is good value for money but it is a significant investment. To then pay quite a large sum for a monthly extension felt a bit unfair.”

“I started this program in 2021 and ran into multiple life events that caused me to delay finishing this year, 2023. Despite this setback, I was allowed to continue my progress without restarting at any point and finally completed my course. TEFL.org provided a fantastic program with many in-depth resources that any teacher would need in a classroom abroad or at home. The length and speed of each course is perfect for almost any learners and the support staff respond quickly if you have a question about the site or the course. The grading instructors and the instructor that you work with during online-classes are supportive and constructive with your progress to allow you to correct and grow through your own knowledge and personal understanding of the subject matter. I highly recommend this course to anyone interested in teaching English as a foreign language!”

“I had to re-do my written assignments so many times because each time they would mark it and give me feedback on what to fix, it would be something different. I would have preferred for them to tell me everything I needed to fix the first time I submitted an assignment instead of making me re-do it 6 times across several weeks because they’d only tell me one thing to fix at a time. At a certain point I started feeling like it might be a scam, dragging it out to force me to pay the extension costs. I’ve heard there’s a way to get your tefl for free, or at the very least there are better sites. Don’t choose this one.”

Thank you for taking the time to provide us with your feedback. I’m sorry to hear you had such a frustrating experience. Our tutors do certainly follow a strict structure which ensures that our courses continue to meet the accreditation criteria. As the most accredited TEFL course provider in the UK it means that schools all around the world know a TEFL Org qualified teacher will be a great asset to them. We also encourage our students to contact their tutor direct if they ever need support with an assignment. There are many different TEFL Course providers, so it can be very difficult to know who you should pick, and I appreciate your comments regarding free courses. However, the TEFL Industry is dangerously under-regulated which means that anyone can start a company and call themselves a TEFL Course provider and offer courses. As there is no regulatory body for TEFL, the key to ensuring you choose the right TEFL Provider is looking at how much independent accreditation they have from recognised bodies. Here at The TEFL Org, employers recognise our certificates as being from one of the highest accredited TEFL providers in the world. Please feel free to reach out to info@tefl.org with any further comments or concerns you wish to share. Again, thank you for your feedback.
