  • Q. How satisfied were you with the classroom element of the course? A. The points covered in the course were very helpful and practical. It showed me how to practically apply what I'm covering in the online course and how to deal with the different personalities I might encounter in the class.
  • Q. How satisfied were you with the TEFL Tutor? A. It was very enjoyable to be around our tutor Wikus. He was very informed and has a great way of dealing with people. I really appreciated that he gave practical tips and shared his experiences with us as well. He turned something that could potentially be quite boring into something fun. I had quite a few laughs.

  • Q. How satisfied were you with the classroom element of the course? A. It was clear that the class was being taught by a genuinely passionate teacher who was there because she wanted to be, and that the small classroom size allowed me to get to know a number of very interesting and inspiring people.

  • Q. How satisfied were you with the classroom element of the course? A. The course content was engaging from start to finish. I thought that it was just the right amount of material to get through. Neil was excellent for giving the course and we had just the right balance of listening and activities.
  • Q. How satisfied were you with the TEFL Tutor? A. Neil was excellent. He completely engaged with the class even though we were a wide variety of ages and backgrounds. He was interesting, helpful, patient and kept things moving at just the right pace.

  • Q. How satisfied were you with the classroom element of the course? A. The teacher, Richard Lewington, was a great guide into the world of teaching; he not only gave us great lessons and real-life applications of the theory we'd been learning to that point, but his feedback was also excellent and he really did do what he could to answer all of our questions as best he could. His eleven years' teaching experience really shone through in the way he showed us.
  • Q. How satisfied were you with your TEFL Tutor? A. As mentioned before, he really helped us with the real-life applications of theory; he also helped us with actually finding a job, answering tricky interview questions, and optimizing applications. I attended five interviews and found a job in the four days since the course's end; he really gave us the confidence we needed to make it professionally.
  • Q. How satisfied were you with the classroom element of the course? A. The course covered all my expectations in terms of an introduction to TEFL. Given the volume of material covered, I am amazed that it was completed in the time frame allowed. For me, the bonus was meeting and working with a very amiable and friendly peer group, who I look forward to meeting again.
  • Q. How satisfied were you with the TEFL Tutor? A. Emma was extremely well presented, was perfectly personable, extremely knowledgeable and incredibly patient.

  • Q. How satisfied were you with the classroom element of the course? A. The classroom content was extremely helpful. I feel like I have benefitted from the class instead of just doing an online course. This is innovative and provides a human aspect which makes asking for help and assistance for the course/teaching overseas much more enjoyable and helpful. Going on this TEFL journey, I feel that I will be well equipped to teach abroad as all the challenges, teaching techniques and methods have been cleared up for me.
  • Q. How satisfied were you with the TEFL Tutor? A. Wikus was an excellent lecturer! He gripped us from the get-go and made us enjoy the activities and content we were learning. He engaged with students and helped answer all our questions and iron out any challenges we might face as a TEFL teacher. He had brilliantly put everything into perspective for the class. It was a great experience from a great teacher and this course was overall extremely helpful.
