Great experience This was a great experience, both the online course and the onsite course through Maximo Nivel. The onsite course gave me the TEFL content and great support from the adviser. The onsite course gave me the practical experience I was looking for. Highly recommend this program

An In-Depth way to learn My experience with TEFLOnline.com has given me the opportunity to study the ESL teaching curriculum at my own pace and within the comfort of my own home. This well planned out course allows the student to focus on topics and spend time on various subjects that may be more difficult than others. Also, the program causes the student to look at the language learning experience from the ESL Students perspective and points out some of the difficulties that students of various languages may encounter when learning English. I believe that this course has given me a foundation by which I could easily teach an ESL class from a popular ESL Text Book and Workbook. I have learned much about creating fun and diverse exercises to enhance any such program and a well defined structure in which to present lessons to ESL Students. I would highly recommend this course to anyone who has the ability to work on their own and is motivated to absorb the information from each module that will provide them with well rounded skills to be a great ESL Teacher!!!!!!

Not what was expected The materials, including videos and written modules, were old. Many of the reference materials and links to resources either did not work or were obsolete - companies were no longer in business or the website was different. I'd recommend this is you are in a hurry to get a cert to teach but if you are really looking for something to augment your career as a teacher, look somewhere else.

helping students find jobs I think this job website should be available to students who successfully completed their course and acquired their certificates. This was promised to me before I paid for my course, this is one of the reasons why I chose this school. I was promised that the school would help me with my job search, But this promise never materialized, because I cannot access my student information any longer from the school website. This student information should be available to students who passed their course and acquired their certificate all the time. I was able to view that web site but was too busy with my course and thought I could access it after I completed my course, but was very mistaken, when I completed this course I could not go back and access any information at all, not even how well or how rotten I did in my lessons. I think the school should keep their promises to their students. I loved the course and the teachers or instructors, I loved all the people that were involved with my course, but would like to see this job website and have access to it all the time I want to as I was promised.

More Than I Expected! I studied the program at TEFLOnline because I wanted to teach English as a foreign or second language. Little did I know at the time that I would be invited to teach Business Studies in a bilingual school in Uruguay, in English. However, what I did not realize is that the level of English that the students have, has given me the opportunity to use almost everything I studied with TEFLOnline! I could not have picked a more accurate, helpful, useful, challenging and meaningful course of study. Having a tutor available all the time who responded quickly to my questions and frustrations, and gave me great suggestions which continue to help me today, was priceless. I owe a debt of gratitude to TEFLOnline. They gave me much more than I expected!
