168-Hour Hybrid TEFL Certificate with OnTESOL

I am just finishing up the 168-hour hybrid program, and I have to say it’s been an excellent course. Thanks to this program, I have learned an enormous amount about teaching English as a Second Language. The chapters, and explanations, are very good, and when I did have a question, my tutor was very helpful and quick to respond. The assignments have taught me a lot about how to create effective lesson plans, as well as how to approach ESL students in ways that will work best for them. That’s another important concept I am taking away from this course: it is all about the students. They are our first concern, and everything must be crafted and tailored to facilitate their learning experience. The 4 live webinars were excellent in terms of both content and instructor—the OnTESOL folks were terrific. It’s clear they want you to succeed and are more than happy to assist. All in all, I say kudos to the people at OnTESOL. Thanks for doing such a great job!

The coursework was completed over a long period due to work, life, and other commitments. Throughout the process, I received considerable support from Margaret, the program staff, and teachers online. The course was informative and it was my first time taking this type of course so I appreciated the layout and organization. Thanks again for all of your support Brad.

On registering for this course, I was filled with trepidation because it is a self study course. However, as soon as I started studying, I was motivated to study and do my assignments. It was interesting to gain knowledge about different learning styles and how to create lessons that appeal to each learning style. The course got more interesting as I studied Linguistics-Grammar and Phonology and then studying the Methodology for teaching English as a second Language. In addition to the content of the course, the staff is extremely professional and supportive. Assignments are marked within the on time all the time which for me was motivating as I was up to date on my progress in the course. My tutor for the 120hr TESOL certificate was excellent. She is knowledgeable and imparts the knowledge so well, it just inspiring. The lesson planning workshop were excellent. They allowed participants to practise what we were studying with great feedback and clarification. As I moved to my specialist courses for the 168 hour Hybrid TEFL Certificate, I was a bit saddened because I was getting a new tutor but Claudia didn't drop the ball. She was of equally great support . My assignments were marked on time with great feedback. She supervised my teaching practice to a successful completion. I can guarantee that you will not be disappointed with this course!!!!! I loved taking it!!!!!
