This course is tough. I really had to work at it.
March 18, 2026by: Doug Baker - United StatesProgram: TEFL Certification in Peru with Job Placement Guarantee
Every day I learned more, and improved in my teaching. Especially helpful was all the time we spent teaching actual students and classes. The teacher reviews of my teaching were fantastic. They provided the guidance I needed in order to improve.
Wonderful course
March 18, 2026by: Mike Stapp - United StatesProgram: Online TEFL Certification with Job Placement Guarantee
I really enjoyed Maximo's TEFL course. I felt it prepared me very well for teaching English to non-English speakers, which is one of my passions. The course was extremely thorough and was a great combination of meaningful assignments, observations of classes and online teaching experience. I feel I had excellent support from my instructor Sean. He was readily available and provided valuable feedback and clarifications. The online course was a perfect fit for my schedule and routine. I am very happy that I chose Maximo's TEFL course for my certification program.
It was an unforgettable experience!
March 15, 2026by: Jillia Northern - United StatesI had so much fun and learned so much, even though I was only in Costa Rica for a week. From walking through the Monteverde Cloud Forest, to volunteering at La Finca, I really enjoyed it all. I would 10/10 recommend this program and do it all again!

After teaching English in Italy in 2016, I realized that I wanted to take this career path more seriously and invest in my education with a TEFL certification. I want to teach in a country that is different than America, where I can genuinely make a difference and help children to have more opportunities in their lives by speaking English and having me as their teacher.

By volunteering with Maximo Nivel, I was able to volunteer and be immersed in the culture of the city I helped in. Traveling has always been a passion of mine, and this program allowed me to travel the world in an aspect most tourists never get to experience!
