Great program and very organized company

Thailand is a beautiful place and my experience here has been great. Mytefl was extremely organized from the moment I signed up and still offers resources as support. Getting to know the culture and lifestyle was exciting during the orientation phase and you do meet some nice people. If you do your research and know what to expect you will greatly enjoy this place.

Great start to an exciting new lifestyle

Teaching in Thailand has been an extremely awesome time and MyTEFL made sure that I was fully prepared. With the resources and the practical guidance I was able to quickly settle in to my new lifestyle! I met some great people during the orientation in Hua Hin who like myself are new to teaching English overseas. We touched up on some in class teaching strategies but also learnt the basics of living locally including accommodation, food, transit and more. I have been here about 4 months now and will definitely be staying for the many months to come. Thank you MyTEFL for the great experience.

Experiencing life in Thailand!

I've been living in Thailand for the last five months. MyTEFL is a great course, they help you out up until your departure and even after. The course runs very smoothly in simple steps. I would recommend this course to anyone who wants to get their foot in the door teaching English aboard. It is a good starter course, and after you get some experience you can find a better teaching job. My placement is in the country and it wouldn't be an ideal place for some people because there isn't much to do around. I am about an hour and a half away form the city, but all the Thai teachers are very kind and helpful. Teaching English as a foreign language is no easy task, be prepared to work many hours and make a lot of lesson plans. I would like to thank Mislav from myTEFL, you have been very helpful, kind, and answered all my questions. My best wishes go out to you, thank you so much!:)

Memorable experience!

Hi, my name is Emilia Smyth and last year I taught English in Thailand thanks to myTEFL. I did the 120 hour online tefl course and really learnt so much through this program. I was very new to teaching so myTEFL was the perfect company to help me gain confidence and experience.

Sisaket

It was extremely easy to ease into Thai culture. My students were absolutely amazing and very fun to be around. My coworkers weren’t ideal; however, it wasn’t something to dwell on. I wish there was a bit more to do as well, but I managed. Overall fantastic experience!

Scott DentonUnited States · March 2019

Most amazing experience ever!!

Thailand is beautiful and the people are even better. MyTefl answered all my questions before departure and was a top notch organization. They set me up with the best organization in Thailand. (XploreAsia) I would recommend taking the TEFL course here in Thailand and not just online as I did. The course here better prepares you for what is to come. If interested in knowing more about my life here the check out all my Thailand pics on my IG. P.S.... really hope you like to eat often!

Made the right choice

So I've been living in Thailand just over 6 weeks now and I gotta say it's been one of the best decisions of my life! The transition was super easy, MyTefl gave me all the tools and confidence I needed to walk into that classroom on the first day. I would highly recommend the course to anyone!
