Its been only a month and a half since I enrolled to the 180 hour course and I can happily say I am officially a TEFL teacher. I had an excellent experience with the support from the team especially, Mr. Luke, Ms. Jenny and Ms Laura as they were incredibly helpful throughout my journey. They provided clear guidance whenever I need it which made the learning process smooth and enjoyable.The lessons were well structured, systematically arranged and very easy to access. I especially appreciated the flexibility to learn at my own pace which made it ideal for balancing other commitments.It has truly been a pleasure learning with you. Thank you for such a a valuable and enriching experience.

They delivered what they promised, and we had some fun along the way. 🙂 "Face to face" lessons with the leading teacher and other participants - who actively took part and led mini lessons on screen - really helped us identify our strengths and weaknesses as future online or in-class teachers.

I took the 30 hour business English course which has been a good add on to the level 5 TEFL I have already completed. It covered different aspects of teaching business English and provided a good foundation to begin teaching this type of English lesson. I like that it also briefly mentioned teaching English for specific purposes which I'm also interested in.

I was lucky to find the 30 Hour of Teaching Business English Qualification course, for the most part I was bit sceptical as this was my first online learnig experience, however I was genuienly and pleasantly surprised by the well- organized units and the-end-of- module- quizzes to check for the learner's understanding and assessment. Definitely worth the money.

Thank you for the course. It was incredibly informative and beneficial. I now have a much clearer understanding of the IELTS exam structure, the assessment criteria, and the potential challenges that may arise. Additionally, I appreciated learning about the vocabulary lists that students should focus on, which will undoubtedly ease their preparation. The course also provided numerous valuable resources and links. It would be wonderful if more engaging and varied activities were included in the IELTS preparation lessons to further enhance the learning experience.

Michelle Benson, the trainer, adeptly guided me and the other students through the "how-to" techniques of teaching an online class. The materials were appropriate for the subject matter, presenting the structure of a class step by step and outlining the best approaches for maximum efficiency. Michelle incorporated numerous interactive sessions and group activities, which greatly boosted my confidence to start teaching immediately.

I had completed the 30 IELTS Preparation Course. The course is very informative. I completed my TESOL in 2023 and knew of the IELTS. However, I really knew nothing about the test. I was familiar with the TOEFL but realized as started tutoring online that the interest of students in many areas of the world was the IELTS. This provided me with a good understanding of the structure of the test and how to help students to prepare. The links to resources were helpful. I feel that I need to do additional preparation and learning of the exam before I could effectively tutor it. However, this gave me a good foundation.

The TEFL Institute is a wonderful choice for TEFL training. I took their 310 hour option, which is a package of 4 courses, and I feel it was a very good choice since I gained a thorough knowledge of general TEFL teaching, as well as some more specialist areas. The course was very easy to follow, extremely interesting and fun. My tutor Rachel Walsh was an email away in case I needed extra information or support, which was reassuring. I would highly recommend the TEFL institute!
