It's an online TEFL certification, which generally have pretty unexciting reputations. This one at least incorporates videos and some very basic multiple choice quiz assessments through the various modules. It's probably around the middle of the pack for online TEFL certs, but a pretty decent value for the money if you're just looking to pad the resume as someone looking to start teaching TEFL abroad.

It was very informative. It helped me be certified.

I was very happy with the lesson and work. What I am not happy with was the certificate. I was supposed to have access to an online certificate, but saw only the general and hard copy certificate. When I accessed the general copy, I saw how much the hard copy costed for different states. I emailed my mentor regarding the issue, and she told me that I should've been able to access the free online certificate for 24 hours. I had to pay $91 for the class and also $29 for the certificate that should've been free.

It would really help if the content was user friendly. Videos or audios would help break it up and make the whole process enjoyable.

I found the course to be rather good, but very boring as it is just plain reading. Something could be done to make it slightly more interactive. Overall though, the course provides a lot of extra content and resources, which is good.

It was nice to complete this course at my own pace. I wish it would have incorporated the very teaching principles that are included in the course content. It got quite boring and repetitious to read page after page after page of information. Having someone convert these pages into a video lecture would have made a wonderful pairing for those with different learning styles. The videos which were used near the very end of a lesson seemed dated and came from a variety of sources. Some included different module numbers which made it seem as if learnTEFL had merely pulled videos from another institution. The use of negative "twists" within questions on every quiz made it difficult to decipher what was being asked, even for a native English speaker. This was surprising as it went against the very principles taught in this course. Sadly, I did not realize there were tutor notes on each of my assignments until after the course was over, but I was quite pleased by their content and it was apparent that Pat was really putting time into crafting a personal response. I did have to make two separate inquiries as it took 6 days (4 business days) to have my final assignment completed at the verge of expiration. Thankfully a course extension was granted. Overall, the course felt like a mish-mash of resources pinned together from various authors and organizations, at times riddled with spelling errors. I am thankful to have purchased this at a Groupon price point (which was very much worth it) but I would have been sorely disappointed if I had paid the full retail amount.

Overall I would give it 3 out of 5 stars. I liked the on-line component of it. But found that once I completed it, I didn't feel qualified to really teach without doing a practicum which you won't get with this online course. Also, when I received my transcript, it had my "practice" scores, which I didn't know were going to be included on my transcript - they are "practice" - so do I really want a potential employer seeing those? In one assignment the teacher couldn't see my highlighted answer and had me re-do the assignment and write "correct" next to the correct answers for self-developed multiple-choice questions. So there were a few quirks along the way. The other issue was there was not enough "grammar" included - which is what we will be teaching to K-12 or adults. For that I'm signing up for another course. Overall, it was a good beginning TEFL course, but you will need more.

I enjoyed the course although it was challenging in some ways I didn’t expect it to be. I found the explations at times lengthy, ambiguous, and rambling. Sometimes a word itself was used in the explanation of that word. The same terminology was, at times, used to explain different facets of a subject. The exams were vague at times and sometimes times the difference between potentially different responses to a multiple choice clear. There was a glitch in your system so that somehow part of my exam wasn’t seen by the teacher even though I could see it as sent, so I did the test again and there was another mix up and i was given a failing grade. Finally I called Pat and she told me there had been a problem but she couldn’t tell which students were affected. Please if you haven’t already, fix that. It’s very frustrating for your students. With a bit of tweaking, this could be a very good course. Thank you for making so much on line information available. Thanks to Pat for usually responding to questions and correcting paperwork in well under 3 days.

I found the course interesting but there was a lot of unnecessary parts.
