I signed up for this course to get qualified & certified as an English language tutor online and I'm so pleased that in 6 months time while under COVID circumstances I did it and got certified! I've benefited a lot by pursuing the TEFL course. As a self-paced course it was rigorous and challenging at times. The modules vary in size and duration hence my advice would be to plug into the course materials the day after it's purchase, literally! It takes knowing yourself well and discipline in keeping the time in check to be on track particularly when submitting written assignments. The course provides plenty of opportunities to self test your English language knowledge while building up on your teaching skills and has plenty useful videos and references that help you get an idea of how classes should be taught. There are great examples included and the coursework encourages you to think outside of the box, research the language and all there is on teaching it and produce your own body of work through the written assignments to make it a stimulating and effective learning experience. The feedback and grading on written assignments is worthy a separate mention as it was done in a SMART way: the reviewers were very aware of time and provided their reviews way before the deadline; page long, point by point- a very detailed feedback including suggestions & tips for improvements. I found this feedback from three different reviewers an unexpected added value to my overall course experience and success! I 100% recommend the Level 5 TEFL Academy course to anyone interested in becoming an English language tutor!
