I learnt a lot about teaching!
July 01, 2026by: Xinxu Li - ChinaProgram: Accredited Level 5 TEFL Course Online | Teach Worldwide
I am very grateful to the TEFL team, especially Olivia Klimczyk, who offered me a lot of help in time and in high quality as well. I have learnt a lot about teaching English in a logical, organised, strategical and serious but interesting way!
Great first experience
July 01, 2026by: Noemi Sarkozi - HungaryProgram: Teach Confidently with this 10-Hour Practicum Course
Great experience completing the 10-hour Virtual TEFL course. The tutor, Michelle Benson, absolutely made the course. She has such positive energy, is incredibly encouraging, and explains everything very clearly. The lessons are well structured and especially helpful for people who have never taught before. One thing worth noting is that the "10-hour" course actually consists of 7 hours of live teaching (2 × 3.5-hour sessions). The remaining 3 hours are allocated to preparing and completing the homework. My advice would be to leave at least a day's gap between the sessions if possible. For people who work full-time, it can be quite difficult to find enough time to prepare properly for the following day's lesson.
Simplified Teaching methods.
June 26, 2026by: Maryqueen Orjiako - NigeriaProgram: Teach Confidently with this 10-Hour Practicum Course
It was a fantastic experience. Michelle Benson made teaching methodologies become real life practical experience, making the classroom a relaxed and fun filled experience for both teachers and learners. I am glad I took the chance.

What inspired you to travel abroad?
I had actually never heard of the industry until 2016. I learned of the ESL world through my sister, who is one of our academic tutors and runs the 10 hour Virtual TEFL Course. She has been an ESL teacher for years! After I had arrived home from travel, it was Kate who introduced me to the company and the industry. I instantly fell in love with the concept and even did a bit of teaching myself in between in France! I didn't stay away for long though, but the TEFL Institute is an amazing place to work - as cringe as that may sound!

I decided to pursue an online program because I wanted to get qualified as a TEFL teacher while also doing my degree program. I needed the flexibility of an online program and knew I would only be able to juggle one in-person classroom—college!
