Online TEFL Courses

I have found this course useful for making this very daunting transition to teaching English overseas into something less daunting. I feel much more aware of my blind spots walking into a TEFL interview or first job position, and feel like the course provides a solid foundation for lesson planning and classroom management. I look forward to receiving the placement assistance that is offered now that I am at the end. As a working adult with my own business, I found the flexibility to be unmatched by any other product yet still providing the solid foundation I was looking for. Thank you TEFLPros!

Studying with The TEFL Academy was a total game-changer. The course modules are fun, well-paced, and give you real skills for teaching. Love every minute of this course. If you're on the fence, definitely go for it!

Excellent all round. Well planned user friendly online course that gave me confidence and practice in all areas and unexpected support especially in next steps. Classroom course diverse students and teacher all adding value.

I am impressed muchly with the course. The foundations of the course are strong. The approach to learning is strong also. Visually, everythiing looks good and functionally everything works well. It was easy to learn.

I really enjoyed the overview and broad spectrum of information provided in this course. The lesson planning was a great activity to work through and the detailed feedback was very helpful in my development. Some links weren’t working on the bonus material but very grateful for the amount of information shared.

Thanks so much for the recommendation.

My experience with TEFL Academy has truly been transformative. Towards the end of my course in 2024, I experienced a personal loss and had to step away from my studies. What touched me most was that the TEFL Academy did not give up on me, and in 2026 I finally completed my qualification. The academic support was exceptional. Saturday webinars, patient tutors, assignment guidance and three opportunities to complete assignments made me feel that the focus was on helping students. The course also changed my teaching practice. As an isiZulu First Additional Language teacher, I previously relied heavily on translation, dictionaries and flashcards. The course opened my eyes to more communicative and engaging approaches to language teaching. The classroom training was practical, enjoyable and inspiring. I completed the course with renewed confidence, new possibilities and a fresh perspective on teaching

Enrollment in this educational program has proven to be an exceptionally rewarding endeavor, facilitating an accelerated acquisition of knowledge and insights in a remarkably condensed timeframe. Furthermore, the digital infrastructure is exceptionally user-friendly; upon the seamless processing of the transaction, immediate, frictionless entry to the student portal was successfully established.

Thanks for the feedback!

I bought this before summer and only got around to starting it in August. It's good. It has a unit of online teaching which I thought was especially helpful. The lesson planning and games units were also really good. The way the course is taught is straightforward but modern and , which is a nice surprise considering the low price

I have been feeling a bit lost as far as TEFL job searching is concerned, so it was a huge relief to get all of my questions answered. I learned a lot about online job sites (good vs bad, what to look for, etc) and I feel much more prepared to start applying. Thank you so much !

Although is was lengthy content to read. At first I thought it will be very difficult to complete and understand. However the content was understandably and assignments and tests was well put together.

Thank you for the review, Magdalene.

Exceptional support from these guys. Not sure how I managed to put a double space between my names on the cert, but I did, so hey ho. Anyway, long story short, I emailed when I saw my downloaded certificate looked a bit off due to the big gap. 10 minutes later, I had a new certificate in my inbox with 3 review links. Happy to oblige,, it was a wonderful course. Best of luck to you guys!

I have learnt a lot about how to conduct online lessons and prepare lesson plans. I am confident today because of TEFL. Be creative when teaching. My mindset have changed a lot. I can use the internet in different ways. I also gained knowledge about the different types of VISA. My experience was an incredible opportunity for personal and professional growth. It allowed me to explore a new environment, learn about different cultures, and gain a broader understanding of the world. During my time with TEFL, I had the opportunity to learn more about people from diverse backgrounds, experience different ways of life, and develop greater confidence and independence. I learned to adapt to new situations, appreciate cultural differences, and approach challenges with an open mind. This experience also helped me develop valuable skills such as communication, problem-solving, and adaptability. It broadened my perspective and inspired me to continue learning and pursuing new opportunities. Overall, my experience was both educational and rewarding. It created lasting memories, strengthened my personal development, and encouraged me to share what I learned with others. I am grateful for the opportunity and believe that TEFL experience can make a meaningful difference in a person's life.

Thank you for the positive review, Zanele. Thank you for choosing to study with TTA!

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

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 .

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.

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.

To be brutally honest, I thought this was going to be a scam at first, so I paid with paypal for peace of mind. It's not a scam - it's a legitimate training course and it's fantastic! If I have one piece of advice for anyone reading this it's to either message them if you're in doubt or just look at the lesson they give you access to (which at the time I had not the foggiest about). If you get through the course without being impressed by the intensity of the training process, I'd be amazed tbh. I just wasn't expecting this for 30 pounds or so that I spent on it. I can't speak highly enough of it.

Exceptional is the word I'd use to describe the course environment and inclusions. I paid 30 pounds and feel like I got a semester of university or something. I think the world of TEFL must be super competitive or something for outfits to feel the need to include so much in their courses: this guy had videos of the unit text with subs, videos of teaching, videos of concepts, videos of videos (just joking!), interactive textbooks, interactive textbook quiz questions, scenario training, job support materials and I'm pretty sure I've missed a few things. It's deep and it's generous. After I finished, I realised I'd spent a load of time on things I didn't need to for advancing to the next parts of the course, but I did it because I liked the process of learning. If you're actually into knowing how to get the scoop on teaching the language then I definitely recommend this. It's legitimately good. Even if you want to go through it a bit quicker, I reckon it allows for that but you can't really get through it without learning the basics anyway as there's just so much detail and density to it. I'm considering waiting a while before going ahead with the extension because they said there's going to be a 200 hours version relesased soon.
