Customer Review of www.teflonline.com/

Hey everyone! How are you doing today? I hope that you’re doing well.

So I wanted to take a moment to share my opinion on the 40 hour course I just took online to get my TEFL certificate (Teaching English as a Foreign Language). I went with TEFLonline.com, which is sponsored by BridgeTEFL. The course was a basic 40 hour one, but you can find many more options on their website. The course costs $185 and certifies you to teach English all around the world.

Here are some things I liked about the website and the Basic 40 hour course I took. First off, the website is designed well and laid out in a very easy to follow way. I can’t stress how important this is, if you’re going to spend 40 some hours on the website, it makes a big difference if you can navigate it well and your eyes don’t bleed every time you look at the site. But hey, that’s just my opinion. I also like that they have instructional videos included with the material they present. They lay out a lot of material that will help you manage a classroom and to teach English in an effective way.

It I had any criticism of this particular course; it would be that it didn’t seem like I learned a TON. I mean, maybe my expectations were to high, but I just don’t feel a whole lot more equipped to teach. But hey, that’s just me.

I do feel like I came away with a lot of resources to help me teach better and help my students. In the end, I’m glad I took the course -I had too- but still I’m glad I did. Getting your TEFL certificate is VERY important when getting a teaching job overseas. If you have any more questions, feel free to comment on here or write me.

Enjoy this day,
Matt
