The course is logical and with hard work provides an excellent foundation for success. The future is bright as a TEFL graduate. This is an exceptional program. I highly recommend anyone wanting to pursue a career teaching abroad to enroll in this excellent program. Good luck everyone. Scott

i had a great , and difficult time as the level is high.

September 12, 2026Fabrice Bobin - France

maybe you should add a module about punctuation, as it is important and there is not such a module on the 120 hours teaching english, tefl, tesol . i am french , for eg, and we have punctuation as well, but it be confusing sometimes, for students to understand, as we don't have the same kind of rythm, and musicality in the way , we write, and pronunce in english , that, could help students of other native languages too. thank you ! the course was really gret and enriching, and quiet high level , nd well, created .

Spring in Córdoba

September 11, 2026Gus Morrill - United States

I very much enjoyed my time in Córdoba, the program was smaller than other programs in Spain and it felt like we got fairly close pretty quickly. The town was a maneagable size while still having several place to visit. Kim Griffin is one of the kindest and most supportive people to run an abroad program, she was there at every step of the way making sure that we felt supported academically, emotionally, and in general. She drove me to the hospital when I had a minor health concern, she showed us many parts of Córdoba that she had a deep knowledge of, and she hosted us at her house for an end of semester pool party.

I love fried rice and China

September 11, 2026Danuser Leonie - Switzerland

I stayed in China for 6 months through Masons Au Pair agency and it was a good experience. I'm especially grateful to the agency who helped me with all the documents and always were ready to help but also thanks to all Au Pair community where I met new friends from different parts of the world! The Au Pair activities the agency provides really helped me to get to know Au Pairs faster, so we hanged out a lot. It is nice that the agency's office is right next door to the language school where I studied Mandarin, so if I had any problems or needed an advice, it was very easy to find people from the agency to talk. In general it was very nice experience and I'm happy I did it! Thank you, Masons agency for your help and support!

Simple but pro

September 11, 2026Lillian Tsai - China

It’s very professional course. However their price made me feel it would not be professional. There was alot of text and some videos to help explain. For Chinese speaker who do not have English as first language this course still was okay to understand. The layout is pretty and simple to use.

This course helped me start a new chapter in my life

September 11, 2026Jacob Harding - Canada

Thanks to this course I am now on track to teach English in Japan and start a new chapter in my life! The course is easy to follow and the way that it is sectioned allows you to easily work through it at your own pace.

I was immersed in Spanish Culture, and what I learned was invaluable to my character development!

September 11, 2026Charlie Gordon - United States

I spent 5 weeks in Spain. It was a BLAST! Sevilla and the WorldStrides Sevilla Team exceeded my expectations and helped me to learn so much in such a short amount of time. I traveled almost every weekend, with and without the program. During my time in Sevilla I stayed with a host family who were incredible people, which WorldStrides was able to provide for me. My teachers, the support staff, and everyone who helped me along the way added to the experience immensely.

Best Four Months of My Life

September 11, 2026Brylee Rodgers - United States

Living and studying in Barcelona for four months was one of the best experiences I've ever had. The city itself is beautiful and full of live. I love how everywhere is walkable and you can get anywhere using the metro. There's so so much to do whether it's going to the beach, out for tapas, hiking in the surrounding mountains, shopping, or having a night out, Barcelona really is for everyone. CEA CAPA made my experience so smooth from start to finish.

Chengdu Experience

September 11, 2026Holly Pallin - Australia

The best part of my experience at LTL was the teachers. I feel incredibly lucky to have been taught by 盼盼老师, 陈鑫老师, and Joan老师 during my eight weeks in Chengdu. When I first arrived, 盼盼老师, 陈鑫老师, and Ying老师 were incredibly warm and welcoming. It was my first experience living abroad, and I was quite anxious about moving to a new country and adapting to a completely different environment. Their kindness, patience, and generosity made such a difference. They helped me feel comfortable from the very beginning and played a huge role in helping Chengdu start to feel like home. Throughout my eight weeks, I saw a significant improvement in my Chinese, and I have my teachers to thank for that. Their classes were not only effective, but also engaging and tailored to my level and interests. They created an environment where I felt comfortable making mistakes, asking questions, and pushing myself to speak more Chinese. I particularly appreciated how they went beyond simply teaching vocabulary and grammar and helped me understand how Chinese is actually used in everyday life. 盼盼老师 and 陈鑫老师 were both incredibly supportive throughout my time at LTL. Their encouragement gave me much more confidence in my Chinese, and I genuinely looked forward to our classes each day. I am especially grateful for how much care they put into helping me improve, both inside and outside the classroom. Joan老师 only taught me for a shorter period of time, but she was equally kind, generous, and encouraging. She made a wonderful impression on me in the time we had together, and I am very grateful that I had the opportunity to learn from her. I would also love to give a special shoutout to Stiles, who joined some of my Safari classes! She made a real impact on my experience in Chengdu and brought so much energy and enthusiasm to our activities. Overall, I could not have asked for a better group of teachers during my eight weeks in Chengdu. I left Chengdu with much stronger Chinese skills, much more confidence, and so many wonderful memories. I am incredibly grateful to all of them for making my time at LTL so special.

Elegant

September 11, 2026Jen Lee - United States

I loved how attractive and smooth the course skin was. It was interactive, modern, self paced and has video coverage. The value is outstanding. Units on online teaching and putting games into lessons made this perfect for me.

Thank you for a great experience.

September 11, 2026Melanie T - United States

I had a great experience here. I highly recommend my teacher Ella, as she really helped me to improve my level of spoken Chinese. She shared a lot of interesting insights about the local culture and we had a really good time. I really learned a lot and feel more comfortable in speaking Chinese now. Hope to see you again somewhere someday ❤️ It was really a very good experience.

Finding My Future in Neurosurgery

September 11, 2026Michael Paley - Canada

Hi, my name is Michael and I am a Canadian student coming from the University of British Columbia. I chose to do this internship because my goal is to become a doctor. When I first came I wanted to be a cardiologist, but after spending some time here I realized I am more interested in Neurosurgery. Athens is a beautiful place and I have had a lot of travelling and experiences and I got to do and see so many things. The food here is like none other. I got to see a lot of Greek islands and it has been absolutely beautiful. I would recommend this program to anyone. It was a once-in-a-lifetime experience for sure. The people from Cerca were awesome; they would take care of everything including the housing and transport. They were very easy to work with and made me feel safe and comfortable the whole time. I will be forever grateful.

Thank you Pan Pan 🥺

September 11, 2026Eden Leddel - Ireland

I’m so grateful to have had Pan Pan as my teacher. She is kind, patient, supportive, and always made lessons enjoyable and comfortable. She explains things clearly and was always willing to help whenever I’m struggling. Her encouragement and positive attitude helped me feel more confident in my mandarin - she really made my chengdu experience amazing 🐼🫶 I’d also like to mention Alex and Stiles, who have both been so friendly and supportive throughout. Everyone has made the experience feel really welcoming and positive!!

Best time

An amazing euro summer

September 11, 2026Ali Eslich - United States

My summer in Spain with SageCorps was truly a dream come true. Getting to live in Europe for a summer (my dream) and gain valuable professional experience with a local travel company, I never imagined it would be possible. I got the opportunity to work for a travel company in their partner experience and brand design department while soaking up summer in Barcelona. Throughout the entire summer, the SageCorps team made sure we felt supported and got the most out of our time abroad. They planned several group activities that allowed our cohort to explore Barcelona and experience all the excitement the city has to offer. My favorite was our day trip to Sitges, a beautiful beach town just outside the city. I will forever be grateful for this experience!

In the office!My friend and I are on the way to a work party in downtown Barcelona!

Experience of a Lifetime

September 10, 2026Maxwell Aitken - United States

Studying abroad aboard Argo en route from Fiji to Bali (via Palau) was an experience I don't think I will ever forget. In addition to academics I also learned how to sail, how to scuba dive, and (I think most importantly) how to live and thrive in unique and seemingly uncomfortable conditions. The program is one of a kind, as are all the people who you will embark on it alongside. I loved it!

Great Content. Learn at your own pace.

September 10, 2026Michelle Rozas - United States

I enjoyed the 120hr course with myTFEL.com. I liked how there was no pressure and I could learn at my own pace. I enjoyed the course materials and the details of English Language teaching. I would recommend this course to all teachers.

Wildlife Conservation Work

September 10, 2026Devin-Danielle Webb - United States

Hello, my name is Devin-Danielle and I am a rising junior at the illustrious North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University, in North Carolina, in the United States. I chose this internship because I am particularly passionate about wildlife conservation and biology and this opportunity provided me with the perfect experience for hands-on learning. So, one thing that I’ve found interesting was using these cameras to check the population density of wolves, bears, and other native species in the area. Apart from this, we track the paths of these animals and we also collect DNA of bears by going to their scratching posts and collecting hairs. Overall, I am pretty pleased with the coordination of my experience and I really enjoyed my time here. Thanks.

Best four months of my life!

September 10, 2026Luke Hardin - United States

My time in Barcelona is extremely special to me, and the experiences and friends I made will last a lifetime. I was able to emserse into a new culture which felt so foreign in the beginning but towards the end felt like home. The people in barcelona were extremely friendly and helpful if there were any questions we had as tourists.

Discovering My Favorite Medical Specialty

September 10, 2026Sophia Lee - United States

Hi. My name is Sophia and I am from Arizona. I chose a medical internship to explore different possibilities in the medical field and to kind of shadow and gain experience in a hospital. Something very exciting here was looking at different specialties. My favourite was Orthopedics, which was the highlight of this trip. The coordination was really good. It was very easy getting around. It was all very simple. Athens was gorgeous, it’s a very interesting place, so I would come back.
