I did the 10-hour virtual course with Michelle and really enjoyed it. She was super engaging and made the time fly. Her energy... kept the group going, and she handled the class really well. We managed to cover all the key points and still had time to try out our own teaching practice and talk about our plans for our career within TEFL. As someone who has taught around the world, Michelle was able to give everyone very helpful advice about what it takes to teach in Asia, Europe, Canada...read more

This was my first time participating in an online classroom setting. I expected there to be connection issues, but fortunately... there were none. Clear sound, great interaction amongst fellow classmates and the host/teacher Michelle K. was really very good. Personally I think she is excellent at what she does, her tone of voice, how comfortable she made me feel as a student of TEFL, and her own experiences shared with us. I found this extremely useful. Friendly and great interpersonal people skills :)read more
