My ITTT TEFL experience.

My ITTT TEFL experience ITTT review, submitted by Dan.

My original review was three stars, but having read the comments below, and the reaction from ITTT TEFL, I am please requesting that I confirm this as a two-star review. Thank you. Dan.

I chose to take a teaching English course online because I needed a new direction in my life and didn’t have the available funds to take a TEFL course overseas. Teaching English overseas wasn’t something I knew much about or even thought was possible, so when I read about the ITTT Online TEFL program, I immediately signed up and began my baby steps into the world of teaching. I’d used the internet before but I’d never studied online and I wasn’t sure if it was possible to learn to teach English online. This concern soon subsided when I began the course and started to become familiar with the study format. I’d give the actual course 4 stars because it was educational and I did get a lot out of it.

However, the support wasn’t that forthcoming and I feel this let down the overall ITTT product. I was able to find teaching work pretty easily within a few months of my course finishing, but the whole process would have been a lot swifter and less stressful had I received that support ITTT promised me when I originally signed up.

I’ve been teaching English in Spain (Madrid) now for a couple of years and I love my life here. Contrary to what I read online, it is super easy here to find employment and the pay is reasonable when you consider that you have a lot of free time on your hands. I don’t have a college degree and that turned out not to be a problem for the 2 schools I teach for. The work visa was a bit of a pain at first as I needed to get a few documents apostilled/translated, but besides that, it was no biggie. I recommend teaching English in Spain. Lots of free time. Positive students. Great food. Affordable lifestyle. Spanish isn’t a difficult language to learn.

WARNING! We strongly recommend that readers are made fully aware of the following links, regarding the official (fake) accreditation bodies of ITTT TEFL:

Instead, we recommend choosing to take your international TEFL/TESOL certification course with a program offering a fully accredited course that is far more recognized internationally than ITTT TEFL’s.

My ITTT TEFL experience May 24, 2022 Update:

ITTT – International TEFL and TESOL Training, is still promoting its TEFL courses in Russia – continuing to pay for Google Ads.

Businesses that contribute to the Russian economy indirectly contribute to the war in Ukraine and the suffering of its innocent victims.

Trusted TEFL Reviews recommends that you take much of what ITTT TEFL says and write with a pinch of salt. The company has one of the worst reputations within the TEFL and TESOL certification course industry and you should be extremely wary of their (fake) 5-star reviews on other TEFL review website platforms.
