I did my research and it is clear that a TEFL earned online is just as good as one earned in a brick-and-mortar classroom. So this was the first green box ticked for me. The TEFL Academy program kept showing when I Google-searched for Online TEFL Courses, so I filled out the enrollment form, paid, and began the course. They are a company based out of Johannesburg in South Africa. It&#8217;s an English-speaking country and I felt comfortable proceeding. I must write that the course is well designed. It looks great and was easy to navigate. The course materials were nicely arranged too and they make sense as you proceed through each section. But I won\u2019t be recommending the TEFL Academy to anyone. What drove me to that decision? Absolutely no instruction or engagement with the program professors\/staff. They wouldn\u2019t respond to emails and it was hopeless trying to get a hold of anyone on the phone. Why should I pay top dollar for a course where I am the student and teacher? There wasn\u2019t any help with a job search either. Do yourself a favor and find another school for TEFL certification. Preferably one with a support structure so you can receive direction and help. There are a bevy of options.<\/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 <a href=\"https:\/\/trustedteflreviews.com\/category\/the-tefl-academy\/\">The TEFL Academy reviews<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">New!
