TEFL Courses & Certification in Scotland

As an experienced teacher, I found my TEFL Institute journey both rewarding and enriching. The course was well structured, engaging, and practical, offering fresh ideas and strategies that have enhanced my teaching practice. The webinars and tutorials were a standout feature, providing valuable insights, practical techniques, and excellent support throughout the course. A special thank you to Laura for her encouragement, and unwavering support, which made a real difference to my learning experience. I would also like to thank Olivia for the wonderful opportunity to lend my voice to the course. I highly recommend TEFL Institute to both aspiring and experienced teachers looking to develop their skills through a supportive, professional, and high-quality learning experience.

Premier TEFL offers a solid 300-hr course and the lessons are very educational—I went from knowing hardly anything about teaching language to feeling like I could actually organize English lessons someday. And I did indeed land a job while I was still working on my TEFL certificate to teach Spanish, because some of the principles of teaching English generalize to teaching other languages. One thing that really makes this TEFL program stand out is the amount of support you get. Anytime you have questions or doubts, you can e-mail the staff and they are very responsive. The tutors, Anya and Laura, are available once a week for a live Zoom session, but you can e-mail them anytime and they will answer all your questions, and if they don't have an answer, they will direct you to another staff member who does. The support staff, like Olivia and Lisa, are also very helpful for your course needs and even check in to see how you're doing. Overall, I was very pleased with the value of this course and I would recommend it to anyone who is interested in learning how to teach English.

I’ve just completed the 10 hour virtual TEFL course and it was genuinely interactive from start to finish, plus really enjoyable. Michelle created such an easy, relaxed atmosphere and guided us as we worked in pairs to put together our own lesson plan. It was also lovely meeting so many great people over Zoom, and I’d absolutely recommend it to anyone considering a TEFL career. Michelle is a fantastic teacher and you will really have a great time on this course.

I did the 10 hour virtual TEFL course with Michelle Benson. It ran over two days and was really intense and interactive, and I honestly loved it. At first I was unsure how it would work through Skype, but it ended up going way beyond what I expected. I came away with new friends, a better understanding of the English language than I thought I had, plus loads of practical tips and pointers I can bring into my own classroom. I cannot recommend Michelle enough, you will not be bored for even a moment. I would absolutely do it again. Thanks for everything Michelle! :) Lisa

I just finished the 10 hour advanced certificate in TEFL classroom methodologies course with Michelle benson and I honestly loved it. I came away with loads of useful information that I will definitely be putting into practice from now on. Michelle’s way of teaching made everything feel relaxed, and her enthusiasm for TEFL really rubbed off on me. Thanks so much for the course, I would happily recommend it to anyone who is interested.

I have just finished the 10 hour online TEFL classroom methodology course, and it was made brilliant by the tutor, Michelle Benson. She led our group so smoothly and made sure everyone felt at ease, understood the content properly, and genuinely enjoyed it as well. I cannot wait to use what I learned with my own students and I already feel far more confident. Thank you Michelle and TEFL.

I was so excited to kick off a new professional journey. Taking the Level 5 TELF Certificate ended up being a really great experience for me, because I could learn a lot of new things at my own pace. Over the 6 months I had to complete it, I received brilliant support from other peers on Discord, along with tutor support from Laura and Rachel. I would recommend this to everyone!

I just finished the 10 Hour Advanced Certificate in TEFL Classroom Methodologies Course on Zoom with Kate Popova. Kate was so engaging and managed to keep everyone interested across both sessions, we picked up loads and still had a good laugh along the way. I really enjoyed it. The course also comes with a Teaching Practice, and I loved being able to speak, present to the other students, and get that real hands on feel for what teaching is like. Kate was always on hand for any questions we had, and there is support available even after the course is over. Overall, even though there was a lot packed into it, it was never dull, it never felt rushed, and the tutor gave off such positive, relaxed vibes. Highly recommended!

I really enjoyed what the course covered, and I found the layout and all the resources genuinely useful. Being able to take it at my own pace was such a big deal for me, and honestly I still cannot believe how quickly I moved through it. Thank you to everyone who helped put this together, it definitely will not be the last course I purchase.

From the moment I began this demanding course right through to finishing it, I have felt proud to graduate from such a great institution. If you are truly ready to take a leap of faith and travel, then this is the place to be. Just to add, I am now living and working in Thailand, and it is because that strong qualification gave me the chance to open doors. For that, I will always be grateful.

I went for the 180hr TEFL course because I wanted the full experience and to really get everything I could from it. There was loads of genuinely helpful content, covering everything from grammar and lesson planning to classroom management. It was easy to follow, and everything was organised in a way that clearly had a lot of thought put into it. All in all it is definitely worth doing. The only intimidating part was beginning because it looked so big and overwhelming, but taking it one small step at a time each day means you will finish before you know it :)

I had such a great time on the 10 Hour Teaching practice course with Kate Popova! She knows her stuff and her teaching practice insights made the whole TEFL experience feel real, and it was genuinely so much fun. It was just two evenings, but everyone clicked straight away, which was honestly amazing! :) Seriously, if you are thinking about it, just sign up or contact TEFL and they will help you figure out what suits you best! :)

I cannot wait to see what comes next now that I have finished my 120 hour course. It was packed with useful information, and I really appreciated being able to work through it on my own schedule. Every module kept my attention, stayed interesting, and helped me see teaching in new ways, especially when it comes to bringing out the best in myself and connecting with different kinds of learners. I would absolutely recommend this course to anyone who wants to become an EFL teacher because it can lead to so many opportunities to teach English abroad. On top of that, the TEFL staff were so friendly and helpful whenever I had questions, and they stayed professional by checking in with me afterward to make sure everything was sorted. Overall, I give it a 10/10.

Hello. Denis is my son, and he is about to get his long awaited TEFL certificate from your institute. I could not be prouder of him. He only turned 18 a month ago, and while he was also studying for the leaving cert exams he had this year, he still managed to complete your course. I want to thank you for all these months you spent alongside my son, for the time you gave him, and for your commitment and perseverance. Thank you as well for the encouraging words that lifted him up and helped him trust in his own abilities. Thank you for showing him every day what it means to be a wise person, and an even better teacher. A special thank you to Steven and Emma for guiding Denis step by step through every stage of learning. In short, TEFL is a strong e learning platform that lets you work at the pace that fits you, with the freedom to study from anywhere in the world, whenever and wherever you choose. I would suggest it to anyone, even if it is a little ambitious. Regards, Rafal Dluha

I honestly cannot recommend the TEFL course enough for anyone who wants to give something different a go, especially because it has been so straightforward to complete from home during the pandemic. Finding my way around it was simple and the way everything is organised makes it really clear what you need to do. More than anything though, I genuinely enjoyed working through the course and I am excited to see what kinds of opportunities it could lead to for me later on.

I just finished the 10 Hour Advanced Certificate in TEFL Classroom Methodologies with the wonderful Michelle Benson. Across the two days, it was a really easy, enjoyable experience, and between my fellow participants and Michelle, we worked through everything in a fun, super interactive way. All the way through, Michelle gave brilliant guidance, feedback and reassurance that we were on the right track. She was organised and prepared for every part of the course, which made it straightforward for me and the rest of the group as well. I will absolutely be keeping in touch for future advice and tips! Thanks Michelle.

Getting certified to teach english online did not have to be expensive, and this course proved that. Everything covered was easy to follow and kept my attention, while still staying straightforward and to the point. I also managed to finish it pretty quickly, which was another big plus for me.

Hi, my name is saba and I am from Pakistan. I completed my masters in English literature back home, and when I moved to Ireland I was away from my subject for about two years. Later on, I began feeling interested in teaching English again, and that is when I came across this wonderful academy (tefl) online. They explained everything properly, so getting admission was pretty easy for me, and up to now I have received 2 certificates. I truly value their service, the course content, the way they deliver it, and how supportive they are, and I really hope it helps me achieve my dream of becoming a teacher. I would definitely suggest this academy to all my near and dear ones, especially anyone who wants to teach English abroad or even at home. I am very satisfied with their service. Great work, TEFL!

I had a great time working through the 10 modules, which covered everything from theory, vocab and grammar to practical examples and useful classroom tips, plus links and a multiple choice quiz. On top of that, the team were also straightforward to contact by both email and phone.

If you are keen to support other people learning English but cannot commit to turning up for a college course, this online course is ideal. It fits around you, so you can dip in whenever you like and study as much or as little as suits you, as long as you have Wi Fi. And once you are done, you simply download your certificate.
