As I think another reviewer on here noted, Linda D. seems to be their torch bearer on Quora and it was actually her posts that convinced me to sign up. She just seemed like a good-natured soul who was simply going out of her way to help others make their way through the online TEFL courses minefield. It was only when I stumbled across a blog that I discovered she is a prolific poster on Quora and makes money from sending people ITTT&#8217;s way. Actually, now I read her name back, I wonder if it isn&#8217;t some sort of alias. Look, people, the course was ok. It wasn&#8217;t excellent. It wasn&#8217;t terrible. It did the job. But the blog I stumbled upon also mentioned their OTTSA accreditation body and it was suggested that this had been set up by ITTT. I also tried contacting OTTSA but never received a reply back. It is just an empty-shell &#8216;accrediting organization, which is set up to deceive people new to TEFL who can&#8217;t possibly tell what is and what isn&#8217;t legit. Their job support services are basically non-existent too. Take the course if you want to but take whatever Linda D. writes with a mountain of salt. It&#8217;s just another TEFL mill business set up to extract as much money as they can from you while delivering as little product and service as they can get away with. I&#8217;m currently in talks with my bank to receive my course fee back on the pretense of false advertising. My advice would be to go to another school such as Love TEFL. They may be the lesser of two evils, but at least you&#8217;ll actually receive something at the end of the course in terms of some type of job support. ITTT: shame on you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Read more&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/trustedteflreviews.com\/category\/ittt\/\">ITTT reviews<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">New!
