TEFL Courses & Certification in Youghal, Ireland

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.

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!

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.

Signing up for an online TEFL course made me pause, since I usually learn better in a classroom and I was concerned the support would be limited. This course has completely exceeded my expectations, and as soon as I enrolled I was set up with a tutor. Anytime I reach out, she gets back to me really quickly and her help has been invaluable. The TEFL Institute also run a weekly Zoom session where you can bring any questions, and everything gets answered in a friendly, laid back environment. I am about halfway through the 180 hour diploma now and I would definitely recommend it to anyone who is thinking about teaching English as a foreign language.

This course has been on my mind for a while, so I am really glad I finally took the step. Emma was a huge help and gave me great guidance throughout. I now have a fantastic course lined up, and I really appreciate her support in helping me pick the option that fits my needs best. Excited to begin. Sheila Whalley, Co. CORK

Completing my TEFL certificate through the TEFL Institute of Ireland was a really great experience. Any time I had a question about the course, the people I spoke with got back to me quickly and were consistently supportive from start to finish. They even ran free webinars for course participants, which was a nice extra and helped me start considering what to do next when it comes to teaching. After I finished, Ella reached out to check in and make sure everything had gone well, and I genuinely appreciated that. I would absolutely recommend the TEFL Institute of Ireland to anyone thinking about doing a TEFL certificate.

The 120 hour TEFL course was really worth it for me. Along with getting the qualification, it walked me back through what English looks like from a foreign language learner’s perspective, and it also gave me lots of teaching techniques plus a range of reference materials I can use in the classroom. Thanks for offering this course, I will definitely recommend it! Nicolas C.

I thought I would give TEFL Ireland a go, so I enrolled on the 310 hour course. It is definitely challenging, but I am really enjoying it. I have just finished the 10 hour virtual TEFL course and teaching practice with Michelle Benson. Michelle was incredibly patient and upbeat, with a great sense of humour, but she also made sure we understood how important time management is when putting our lesson plans together. Now I still have the remaining 200 plus hours or so to get through. Luckily I do love a challenge. I would absolutely recommend TEFL to anyone who has even slightly thought about doing it before, there is a course to fit you because there are plenty of options to choose from.

Hi everyone. How are you? I have really enjoyed learning with TEFL because they are a great company. When I enrolled on Mar. 31, 2021, the price was excellent. They check in with me regularly to see how the course is going and to ask if I need any help. Anytime I reach out with a question, the tutor gets back to me fast and stays professional. They also keep sending me websites where I can apply for jobs, and they even have a cover letter site if you need help with you're cover letter. The support is magnificent, and I would recommend that anyone who wants to pursue an online teaching course give TEFL Institute a try. Andy L.

I have just finished my third online course with The TEFL Institute of Ireland. Everything is laid out in a way that makes sense, the content is genuinely useful, and the platform is straightforward to navigate. I would absolutely suggest it to anyone who wants TEFL qualifications without pressure, and who needs to fit study around their own schedule. These qualifications have played a huge part in letting me steer my career in a completely new direction. Emma was brilliant. She replied to my queries, and when I needed extra time to wrap up the courses I had left after taking a break, she arranged an extension for me. It was sorted right away. Overall, they come across as a really friendly company, with staff who are patient, supportive, and understanding, plus excellent course materials. I cannot recommend them highly enough if you are looking for TEFL qualifications.

I have had a really great experience with TEFL Institute. Their platform feels polished and genuinely professional, and the course content is laid out as well as anything I have seen on an online education site. It is easy to work through and clear to understand, but it still has real depth, and I genuinely feel like I have learned a lot. With the consistent assessments and high standards, you finish with the core foundations you need to move toward a TEFL career, and in my case every tutor and support person has been consistently excellent. Everyone I dealt with was fantastic, but Angela and Annelies especially deserve credit for the support side, and my outstanding tutor Anya has my lasting thanks. It is obvious they are invested in helping you get through it and do well, instead of squeezing you for extra fees the way some other places do. I would absolutely recommend the platform and the course overall.

I felt really fortunate coming across the 30 Hour of Teaching Business English Qualification course. Since it was my first time learning online I was a little doubtful at first, but it turned out to be a genuinely nice surprise. The units were clearly laid out and the quizzes at the end of each module did a great job of checking understanding and progress. It was absolutely worth what I paid.
