120-Hour TEFL Certification MyTEFL review, submitted by Evan.

120-Hour TEFL Certification. Evan’s MyTEFL review.

So many TEFL courses out there! It was a small nightmare trying to choose which one to take. In the end, I narrowed my list down to just two: MyTEFL and TEFL Online Pro. I ended up choosing MyTEFL simply because they were offering me a 50% course discount, because of my recent college graduate status.

To begin with, MyTEFL was very responsive to emails and the telephone call I made to their Vancouver office. They explained everything very clearly, confirming everything written on their website; that the course is exceptional, that there is amazing support throughout the course, that they go out of their way to help with job hunting, etc. I was initially impressed! But then reality hit.

The quick, helpful responses abruptly stopped at the moment of purchasing the (120-hour) MyTEFL course. It was in stark contrast to before I signed up. No matter how many emails I sent, asking valid questions about the course system, I never got a reply back. And yes, I did check my Junk/Spam. I then decided to call them, like when I had, before I paid for the course, and they just brushed me off with a short reply to my question which didn’t help me at all.

In total, I completed just over half the course. Within that time, I received no feedback on any of my work. It felt like I was studying blind. The 6 or so modules which I did complete, I completed in just a few days. It was ridiculously easy. Read a boring text. Answer some multiple-choice questions. Repeat.

The thing is, I didn’t just take the course to get a certificate. I chose MyTEFL because of what student blogs wrote about the course; it educates you in TEFL to a top level. It doesn’t, and I question the authenticity of those MyTEFL student blogs.

After I had finished the sixth module, and when I read through the 7th and saw a few glaring grammar and spelling mistakes in the text, I contacted MyTEFL for a refund. I was still within the window to able to qualify for a discount, based on their course purchase Terms and Conditions.

MyTEFL wrote back that I wouldn’t qualify for a refund, and I never got a further reply back. I had to contact my bank to ask them to get my money back for me. Last Thursday, my bank informed me that they would be able to claw back the money for me, so I now feel comfortable leaving this MyTEFL review.

The first thing I did was enroll in the TEFL Online Pro (120 hours) TEFL course; something I should have done at the start. It’s been almost a week now and the difference between MyTEFL and TEFL Online Pro is like night and day.

I don’t feel like I’m studying blind now. When I purchased the TEFL Online Pro course, I received a welcome email from my tutor (Paul) and when I send a message to him, I got a message back almost instantly. The course is way better designed too, and without any grammar or spelling mistakes. The difference in price is only about $50, so I recommend TEFL Online Pro as the far better choice.

Despite the rocky start with MyTEFL, I’m now looking forward to completing my TEFL Online Pro course and I’m looking forward to teaching English online with the certification. I’ve read great things about teaching English online and this comes at the perfect time for me to start doing it.

tefl online pro review, submitted by Kelly N.

From start to finish, this was a very good study experience for me (my first course ever taken online) and I just want to write a short review as a thank you to TEFL Online Pro (and as information for people looking to take a TEFL course online) for helping me reach my goal.

It was difficult to decide on which course to take because there are so many of these courses online.

In the end, I narrowed my search down to The TEFL Academy and TEFL Online Pro.

I read some negative reviews about the former, so I went ahead and enrolled in the TEFL Online Pro 120-hour course.

From the get-go, I knew I had made the right choice.

I had a load of questions, which were all answered really quickly, and I never felt like I was being hurried to sign up and pay. I was in contact with Sarah, and she went out of her way to explain the TEFL job market and how TEFL Online Pro was going to help me with my job search after I had taken the course. This included help with my teaching resume and recommendations for which schools were the best ones to teach for. It turned out that Sarah was there to help me at the end of the course. She stood by her word and helped me with getting my resume prepared for job interviews, and she also sent me a list of fresh job leads. This support was essential because without it I a) wouldn’t have known where to look for jobs, and b) I wouldn’t have known which schools are recommended and which are not.

Paul was my tutor for my course, and he was also very helpful and very professional. I didn’t need that much help, but the questions I did have were answered quickly and informatively. The price of the course represents great value for money, and with the TEFL Online Pro certificate (and with the help I received) it has been possible for me to start out teaching English online. The quality of the tuition also got me off to a strong teaching start. I now understand why this school has all those 5-star reviews, and I’m so happy I chose the right company to take my international TEFL with.

What’s also good to know is that I can use the certificate worldwide if and when I want to teach abroad.

Thanks so much, TEFL Online Pro!

Is MyTEFL legit MyTEFL review, submitted by Mark.

Is MyTEFL Legit? The myTEFL certification course online was a reasonable choice.

I took the MyTEFL 120-hour TESOL course online, which with the 30% discount came to a little over 200 USD. This is a pretty much middle-of-the-road price for one of these online TESOL courses. I did notice some really really cheap ones being offered for as little as a few bucks, but I’m not such a fool as to fall for that one. I liken it to learning a language. Would I pay my tutor 5 USD per hour to teach me a language? No, I wouldn’t. So the My TEFL course price seemed fair, considering there were no brick-and-mortar buildings to attend. So I can see why these online TESOL courses are cheaper than the in-class ones because they have much lower overheads to take care of.

Apart from the odd typo and grammar mistakes contained within the MyTEFL 120-hour course content, I couldn’t fault the overall focus and instruction of the course. There are a variety of teaching areas covered, Curriculum Planning being the one I most enjoyed working through, but as an introductory course I did at times note to myself that it wasn’t challenging enough for someone like myself who had done some teaching before. For anyone venturing into teaching for the first time though it is a fair balance between the easy and more difficult tasks.

You are issued your certificate when you finish. To be quite honest, the certificate does look a bit like it was designed and printed by my nephew, but as far as I’m aware there is an option to purchase (at extra cost) a hardcopy printed version. I don’t know how much that costs. This is an average course in terms of the course content quality, the final certificate, and the amount of support provided for you, but compared with the dirt cheap TEFL/TESOL courses being advertised on places like Groupon, I’d take this MyTEFL course over them every time. Is MyTEFL legit? Yes, but with some reservations.

MyTEFL review, submitted by Jason.

It was either going to be a full-time TEFL course in Prague or taking one online and then looking for work when I arrived. I chose the latter option, and so happy that I did. You get to save a heap of $$$$ and you don’t need to attend classes at certain times. I completed my MyTEFL course in bed, in my pajamas! And the result was exactly the same. Finding a job in Prague was like shooting fish in a barrel. I’m working with another online, who also took his TEFL online, and agrees with me that those CELTA or CELTA “equivalent” courses are a complete waste of time and money. Take your TEFL online. All will be well!

MyTEFL review, submitted by Anonymous.

I’d rather not have my name published with my review because it seems MyTEFL have a significant online presence and I don’t want any issues further down the road because of a negative write-up of their school.

If you’re reading this then maybe you were also convinced to take your T-E-F-L (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) course with MyTEFL because of all the glowing online reviews.

I consider myself a screwed-on person and impervious to marketing pitfalls, but even I was a sucker for this company.

I read the many glowing, 5-star reviews. I saw the YouTube videos. I read blogs by people such as twomonkeystravelgroup, whereintheworldisnina, womenontheroad, whereveriwant, etc. And this last group was the most convincing of the MyTEFL product package.

But take a careful read through their blogs (and others) and you’ll notice the same trend. All mention the saving you can get if you use a particular course code when signing up for a course.

Look. It wasn’t a bad course. Actually, I don’t really know what a good or bad online course is like because this was my first online study experience. But it did fall WAY short of what was being shoveled by the people running those mentioned blogs.

Yes, folks, they are getting paid to recommend MyTEFL so their recommendations cannot be taken with anything other than a grain of salt.

I don’t know what the “best TEFL course” is.

Perhaps it is MyTEFL. Who knows? What are the criteria anyway for being “the best”?

What I do know though is those bloggers are technically working for MyTEFL by aggressively recommending their courses and receiving a cut of your course fee in the process.

Not a 1-star review, but definitely not a 5-star review for MyTEFL. My (real) feedback – I’m not trying to flog a TEFL course through this review with a discount code – is that the course was OK-ish.

MyTEFL review, submitted by Danielle.

MyTEFL was a good choice for me because I was looking for the perfect combination of low prices and quality course content.

The 120 Hour international TEFL certification course covers all of the main classroom topics and is the international gold standard for the teaching English abroad qualification.

I actually first heard about MyTEFL from a friend who recommended them to me after he had gone through their program and was teaching English out in China as a result.

A few months since I graduated from the MyTEFL program and I’m getting ready for my own TEFL journey: I’m flying out to Ho Chi Minh City next month to begin teaching for a national recruiter.

If you have no responsibilities back home and love travel, TEFL is a totally recommended option for you.

MyTEFL review, submitted by Susan.

Although there were some grammatical mistakes I picked up during the course, I thought it had a well-developed structure and fit my learner’s needs. Not quite sure how they reach the 120-figure that this course claims it contains as it took me a couple of wet afternoons to complete, but nonetheless it got me TEFL qualified so that’s all I care about. They’ll email you a PDF copy of your certificate after the course which you can print out. This did remind me of an SNL sketch I saw once about taking a university course online and initially made me feel incredibly nervous that I had been scammed. But upon checking I see it is standard for a lot of these TEFL schools. I do have to agree with the preceding reviewer that the course just doesn’t live up to its online hype and that yes, there does seem to be a disconnect between what a few blogs say about this course and what is actually provided, but as a general rule of thumb it is a decent course – it comes in a lot cheaper than some other options and if you can ignore the odd grammatical error here and there then I see no reason why not to pay the few hundred bucks to take it. Just take into account the extra fee at the end when you will want a hard-copy version of your certificate. A mixed review really.
