There’s an offer posted on the TM post course bundles saying a chance to win a prize here - fine by me! The course has everything you’d expect plus myriad extras like videos with a person narrating (I should say a human person not AI, as these days it’s usually a machine voice, but this is definitely a British man) and exercises and job finding links and a ton of other stuff the character count here says I don’t need to detail!

I am happy to report that this was a reputable route to getting certification for teaching English as a foreign language. I started my course 4 months ago during summer and have now finished the course with a score of 83%. This is a major achievement for me and I am feeling particularly proud of myself and being able to complete this course at the same time as working. Everything provided to me was useful and I have made an effort to download everything available and to take notes of what I have considered to be important.

The company advisor gave me some good information before I sign up, so I have had high expectacions about the 120 hours course before I start. There is many, many text and videos on the course that can guide you for how you can teach english. My best lesson was the games one, and I see that after the course there are 100 games ideas for different ages and lesson planning also. For learning approach is quite interesting as not just using multiple choices questioning but also matching and others. I like this as it is maybe a little more to challenge me. I learn alot from this course.

the course is bueatiful and it has many interesting infromations from the beginning. I like the picture and everything you can click and play with. I don't fall asleep learning here! The video is nice for pause and think. Every one can take this course I think

I’m just not a fan of online courses. I looked at in person courses and almost shuddered at the price, so online learning is what I had to settle for. Dont get me wrong, it’s a good course, but it’s still just screen work. For being online, the content was very good.

The course is challenging in a good way, resources are thick and useful, lessons are colourful and full of tips, and it's a generally excellent course for people like me who want something good quality without paying too much upfront. Funnily enough, I expected to get an email at some point asking for extra money, but it never came. I downloaded my certificate, thinking I'd get asked at any time for extra money. Nope. This was excellent value through and through and I feel proud of myself for finishing it in full! Go me! I will say that if you're looking for something to finish in an hour or two, you should look elsewhere because this has lots of good tasks.

Ran out of time with my course and figured I’d shoot a hopeful/bashful email to these guys about an extension…they obliged and did so speedily. The course is great - especially the one on their LMS they moved me to with the extension. I wholeheartedly recommend them not just for their kindness but also for the course being so valuable. I did the 120 hour TEFL course, for reference.

Okay I’m impressed by this and happy to share my thoughts. I start with doubtful thoughts and finish with thoughts of how happy I am at the quality and elegance of the course. Now I can teach and have confidencia for my ambition.

Couldn't be happier! This course taught me far beyond the basics of teaching (at least that's how I feel) and showed me how great teachers handle classes of different ages. The video definitely makes this even more valuable, which I'd advise to anyone thinking of a more basic course that only has text. Video and all of their practical aspects make this course such great value, but the tutors or staff make it so approachable and have a really nice human feel. I was annoying before and after the course with questions and needs...they met those needs well so I'm meeting their needs with 5 stars!

All has been exceptional and beyond where I think possible for the next price. I have been lucky to find this course and am feeling courteous that I should make a review to share to others. The training is very high level for knowledge and technological.

I’ll start by saying that when I started the course they had everything on their old system, which was fine, but comparing to the LMS course where I’m doing the extension, it’s a huge difference! I was actually happy with the website version because it had video and activities and enough quality text to make me forget about the esthetics looking a bit…old and worn, but seeing the new graphics and esthetics has ironically made me look back at the old course look and feel that taking a star off is justified. The new course is amazing. Like it looks superb in terms of images and layout. So far, the young learners units are pretty strong, but it’s hard to beat the text coverage of the main course I did. Still, it’s interesting knowing about Piagote and other child psychologists etc

Yes, this is a course for teachers new. The cost of the course is not high. There is much comfort in learning on the website linked for learning in online. For the professors who are making this, they are making a strong course where it is safe to learn.

It’s good. I was recommended the 168 hours course through a friend but went with the 120 hours since that’s what Jonny recommended when I emailed and told them my situation. The price was good and so was content. Solid.

Fast forward to the end, I got my certificates all downloaded and emailed to a few recruiters, who have all okayed them, which is a big deal to me. What I paid for the course was a little mind boggling tbh, as the speed of responses was fast and with a caring attitude, and the course layout and material is excellent. I've marked them down for pre and post course because I saw that other courses had freebies like TEFL location guides to download and some lesson plans etc but I haven't seen anything like that here. Regardless, as I said, what I did happen to get was more than enough to make up for those other little things being amiss. I am so satisfied with the majority of things that I wouldn't hesitate to commend this company to others.

I recently finished the course and received an email to review. If you're thinking about doing this course, it's very good. I'd just say that you should do your research on what kind of job you're looking to get at the end of it, though. They told me it suits most 'entry or middle level' ESL teaching requirements but not ones like British Council or similar. I'll be going into this for the first time with my newb badge, so it suits me perfectly. I learned everything from past methods to modern ones like TPR and how to plan lessons for all ages and how to use activities to get motivation up and so many tidbits along those lines that I feel pretty blessed to have found the course. The resources given at the end of the course are wonderful (though I did need to email them to get them to sort out the formatting on a couple of them as they were restricted in width: they happily obliged anyway) so no real complaints.

Fantastic experience. I was expecting just a basic grammar course, but it went so much deeper into teaching skills, games, how to find work, and building a career. I have nothing bad to say about this program; I highly recommend it!

What can I say other than being extremely proud of myself?! I have never taken an online course before, but watching a movie earlier in the year put an idea in my head about me bing abroad and teaching English, and now I’m finally in a position where I can do just that! It wasn’t easy, wasn’t hard, but it was extremely eye opening, rewarding, interesting, and just generally well executed! I couldn’t be happier with my experience!! Thank you so much to all at TeflMasters for your support and kindness!!!

I let AI help me out with this one, which I've found has worked out every time I've done that, though my sample size is only 3 right now! The teflmasters website looked legit when I clicked the gpt link, and the accreditor OTCC checked out, so off I went with payment. After paying, you click through to their LMS and get going with the course. I waited a few days before getting into the modules, which I found took anywhere from 2 to 4 hours to get through. 120 hours is feasible, though I doubt anyone reads everything twice and watches all videos and all the other things. The text is really detailed and has lots of teacher tips and stories related to the topic, and there are many different types of learner groups covered as well as online teaching. I doubt I'll ever teach online, but I guess it could be handy if ever something like covid hits again. On the topic of AI, one review I read mentioned AI video voice, but there wasn't a single AI video that I saw or heard. The staff mentioned to me on an email that the text had been grammar and spelling checked with grammarly AI, which explains why there aren't any errors in anything I read, but the audio thing had me a bit puzzled. They potentially did have and then changed it. I personally wouldn't have an issue with AI narration or images if they helped me, but it was a nice touch having human narration, even if I only listened to it for the trickier modules when I wanted a review without reading. Honestly, I think the only thing missing is images, and if they're reading this review I'd say the only thing missing is a few choice images (though maybe not gifs!) in your text, AI or not. Regardless, I think the amount that I got for my money here was brilliant, so this is by no means a deal breaker. This is a great course with staff who seem to really care about their training quality. I hope this review helps. Thanks

Not often that I leave reviews but am happy to oblige the review request on this occasion. The course is properly equipped with everything from well thought out wording (mostly easily understandable language) to problem-solving tasks about classroom issues and the flow of a full lesson. There's a heap of really cerebral information and questions to make you at least think about being in the situation of a real teacher. I've never taught before, didn't have any base knowledge of it before, but now feel like I can at least stand up in front of a class and get my lesson done to an okay standard. The resources they provide are far beyond my expectations for the cheap price of the course and my recruiter said the certificate will easily be accepted for South Korea for my EPIK application and other hakwon(?) jobs if I don't get the public school route. I now need to figure out which pathway is best for me before getting any interviews under my belt. One last thing I just remembered is that at the end of the course there's a heap of job help documents like cover letter maker and that kind of thing. I'll be making use of their interview questions cheat-sheet!

Can’t complain as it was all there and the price was peanuts. Got good mileage out of the lessons and liked the freebies at the end. Only thing that bothered me was not having access to a number to call before purchase. It’s legit, but a phone number would’ve helped me get to that place earlier
