The TEFL Academy<\/a> review, submitted by Jana Pretorious.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Having completed the Level 5 TEFL Course I can say with certainty that a lot of time and effort has gone into the course and the tutors are always willing to help with any queries. There is also a lot of effort put into the grading of assignments as the feedback is always in-depth and constructive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The reason why I chose to do the Level 5 Course with the TEFL Academy is that they provide a 168-hour online course as well as a 20-hour in-class component. The in-class component was very beneficial as it provides the opportunity to experience what would be expected of you as a teacher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The course also covers a variety of topics that are essential to have thorough knowledge about when wanting to go and teach. Each unit was also relevant and important to gain an understanding of to ensure that you are prepared for the classes you would be expected to teach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The TEFL Academy also not only ensures that you are prepared with the content but also gives information and templates to help you in applying for work as well as having a job board and various volunteer and internship opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With The TEFL Academy, there are also various top-up programs one can do to further your skills in a particular area such as online teaching and one on one teaching.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have recommended the program to a number of people, and I truly would recommend it to anyone wanting to obtain their TEFL certificate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
