Premier TEFL

Completing the 30-Hour TEFL Course to Become an Online English Teacher with Premier TEFL has been one of the best professional decisions I have made. The course was practical, engaging, and gave me valuable insight into teaching English effectively in an online environment. I especially appreciated the guidance from Tara Bourke, whose knowledge and practical approach made the course both informative and enjoyable. The training provided useful strategies for lesson planning, engaging students virtually, adapting lessons to different learning styles, and creating a positive online learning experience. What makes this course particularly meaningful to me is the opportunities it has opened up. It has allowed me to connect with and work with students from different countries and backgrounds, giving me the opportunity to broaden my teaching experience and learn from learners around the world. Looking back, I can honestly say that I am a better teacher because of this course. It has expanded my skills, strengthened my confidence, and encouraged me to think more creatively about how I teach and connect with students. The flexibility of the course was also a major advantage, allowing me to complete it at my own pace while balancing my other responsibilities. I am genuinely grateful for the opportunities that came from taking this course, and I would highly recommend it to anyone interested in online English teaching. It wasn't simply another certification—it opened doors, expanded my horizons, and made me a more confident and well-rounded educator.

Completing the IELTS Certification with Premier TEFL was a rewarding addition to my professional development. The course provided me with a strong understanding of the IELTS examination and, importantly, practical approaches for helping learners develop the skills needed across Listening, Reading, Writing, and Speaking. What I valued most was being able to take the knowledge beyond the course itself. Since completing the certification, I have been able to work with students from different parts of the world, each with their own learning styles, goals, strengths, and challenges. This experience has allowed me to apply what I learned in a meaningful and practical way while continuing to grow as an educator. The course was flexible and allowed me to learn at my own pace, while the content gave me useful techniques and insights that I could incorporate into my tutoring. It has broadened the services I can offer and given me greater confidence when supporting students preparing for an internationally recognised examination. I am grateful for the opportunity and would recommend the Premier TEFL IELTS Certification to teachers and tutors who want to expand their professional skills and work with learners on a global level.

The 120-Hour TEFL Certification was an excellent learning experience. The course was well-structured, informative, and comprehensive, covering important areas of teaching English as a foreign language. I particularly appreciated the practical strategies, clear explanations, and useful resources that can be applied in real classroom settings. The course helped strengthen my understanding of lesson planning, classroom management, teaching methodologies, and effective ways to engage learners with different needs and abilities. I found the flexibility of the course especially helpful, allowing me to work through the material at my own pace while still gaining substantial knowledge and practical skills. Overall, this certification has added value to my professional development and increased my confidence as an educator. I would definitely recommend the 120-Hour TEFL Certification to anyone interested in teaching English or expanding their teaching qualifications.

As an experienced teacher, I found my TEFL Institute journey both rewarding and enriching. The course was well structured, engaging, and practical, offering fresh ideas and strategies that have enhanced my teaching practice. The webinars and tutorials were a standout feature, providing valuable insights, practical techniques, and excellent support throughout the course. A special thank you to Laura for her encouragement, and unwavering support, which made a real difference to my learning experience. I would also like to thank Olivia for the wonderful opportunity to lend my voice to the course. I highly recommend TEFL Institute to both aspiring and experienced teachers looking to develop their skills through a supportive, professional, and high-quality learning experience.

Premier TEFL offers a solid 300-hr course and the lessons are very educational—I went from knowing hardly anything about teaching language to feeling like I could actually organize English lessons someday. And I did indeed land a job while I was still working on my TEFL certificate to teach Spanish, because some of the principles of teaching English generalize to teaching other languages. One thing that really makes this TEFL program stand out is the amount of support you get. Anytime you have questions or doubts, you can e-mail the staff and they are very responsive. The tutors, Anya and Laura, are available once a week for a live Zoom session, but you can e-mail them anytime and they will answer all your questions, and if they don't have an answer, they will direct you to another staff member who does. The support staff, like Olivia and Lisa, are also very helpful for your course needs and even check in to see how you're doing. Overall, I was very pleased with the value of this course and I would recommend it to anyone who is interested in learning how to teach English.

The study materials were straight to the point, rich in content and easy to grasp. The support staff member, Laura, responded to messages promptly. My practical course sessions with Michelle Benson gave me the kind of experience and heads up that I needed to improve my one-on-one and whole-class teaching skills. It has been a very rewarding journey for me.

I have just completed the IELTS Preparation Course. Like the first course I did, the study materials were clear, accurate, and straight to the point. Although I realize I will need to gain some teaching experience first, my long term goal is still to teach IELTS. Thanks again to the TEFL Institute for giving me the chance to make the career change I need.

What I value most about doing this is the sense that it is genuinely making me a stronger teacher for my students. It shines a light on the gaps you did not even realize were there, while also backing up the things you already know. If you are thinking of getting started, or if you have been teaching English for years like I have, I cannot recommend the TEFL Institute of Ireland enough. This year I finished the 180 Hour Level 5 TEFL course along with the 30 Hour Advanced Grammar, and I am currently working through the Teaching English Online course. I am truly thankful for my personal tutor Rachel, who ALWAYS got back to me straight away with any questions, especially during that sensitive final assessment stage. Thank you! I also found the weekly live group tutor support sessions really helpful for talking through issues and topics with a tutor and fellow students. And thank you as well to Sarah in Customer Support for how quickly she responds whenever we reach out with requests or questions. There is no doubt in my mind that these courses are money well spent.

If you are thinking about teaching English, TEFL provide an excellent service. Everyone I dealt with was really supportive and flexible, and they made the whole process easy. I also took the practical course with Michelle Benson, and the hands on methods it covers were genuinely useful and helped me a lot.

I had such a great time in this class. Michelle Benson came across as so relaxed and easy to talk to. She created a space where everyone could feel comfortable. Her energy was contagious, and by the end I honestly felt confident enough to finally call myself a teacher.

Picking an organisation to study with is never an easy call. I did a bit of research and landed on The TEFL Institute of Ireland because the courses are accredited and the reviews were strong. Now that I have finished the 300 Hour Level 5 Advanced Diploma, I am happy with the choice I made. The course content was solid, the assessments were graded quickly, the IQAs were turned around without delay, and customer support got back to me fast whenever I had questions. A big thank you to Olivia, Laura, Sórcha, Jacob and everyone else for such a positive learning experience!

Booking with the TEFL Institute and getting started on a few courses has been a really positive experience for me. Emma Coleman, the Course Enrolment Advisor I spoke with throughout, was helpful straight away and came across as knowledgeable and professional at every step. It feels like there is solid support there for anyone wanting to study this way, and I would definitely recommend the TEFL Institute to other people.

I only just started my 300+ Hr Level 5 certification and so far everything in the lessons has been easy to follow and to the point. Signing up was just as hassle free. TEFL Institute has been supportive throughout, and the specialists and advisors, including Jessica Jeffery and Walter Cullinan, are there when you need help finishing the course and when it comes to advice for finding work abroad. I would definitely recommend it.

Finishing the TEFL level 5 course with the TEFL institute of Ireland has genuinely made me so happy. The customer service has been amazing, especially Emma who got in touch with me both at the start and again at the end, and every tutor I dealt with, including Anya, Jacob and Lucy, was fantastic. They were such a great support, particularly during the Tuesday evening sessions :) Thanks so much to everyone, I honestly really appreciate it! Now I am just waiting for my Level 5 certificate to land in the post :) Next up I will be starting the 30 hour courses, and I am really excited to get stuck into them!

I recently finished the 180 hour Level 5 course with The TEFL Institute of Ireland and it has been a great experience for me. Everything was laid out in a clear, organised way, and the assessment guidance was straightforward to follow. As a new teacher, I got a lot from the free Grammar and Lesson Planning Guides. I am genuinely glad I chose this course because it has left me feeling confident and ready to start my teaching journey. I have already started an additional 120 hours with The TEFL Institute of Ireland, and I would definitely recommend this language school to anyone looking for a high quality TEFL qualification.

Emma at The TEFL Institute helped me pick out the EXACT courses that will move my career forward. After asking me a couple of quick questions about where I am at, she pointed me toward the kinds of options The TEFL Institute offers. That one on one attention meant a lot to me. Thank you, Emma!

Everyone on the TEFL team has been so kind and supportive, and whenever I have something to ask, there is always someone ready to help. The course itself covers a lot and keeps you interested, and I really think it is going to be a huge help as I work toward becoming an English teacher.

I completed the TEFL 120 Hour Online Course and found it straightforward and easy to follow. The modules were laid out in a really logical way, and when I realised I needed a bit more time to get everything finished, extending it was simple to sort out. Whenever anything cropped up, the TEFL Chat option handled it quickly and efficiently. If you are considering doing TEFL, I would definitely point you towards this course. Since finishing, Angela Walsh at the TEFL Institute has also been very helpful with her follow up support.

Doing a TEFL course has been on my list for years, and taking one with the TEFL Institute of Ireland genuinely changed things for me. Since I am already training to be a language teacher, the 180hr TEFL course felt like the perfect step, both for strengthening my CV and for picking up fresh, more interpretive approaches to teaching. Getting help is straightforward too, with tutors available whenever we need support. Overall, I am very happy with the course. I enjoyed the whole experience and I can already see it opening doors for me down the line, like travel and teaching online. Thanks so much, TEFL Institute of Ireland!

I have just completed the 120 hour TEFL course and found it really straightforward from start to finish. Everything was laid out clearly, simple to follow, and the platform was easy to access and use. I would absolutely recommend the TEFL Institute of Ireland.
