I am currently enrolled on the 180 hour Level 5 TEFL course with the TEFL Institute of Ireland. The course material is excellent, very organised and very well presented. There is information on job prospects and personal reflections from people who work with the qualification. The help and advice from the course administrators is excellent. I would highly recommend the TEFL Institute of Ireland if you are considering qualifying in the area of TEFL.

I am currently doing the 240-hour online course with the TEFL Institute of Ireland. I am really enjoying it so far, it’s easy to navigate around the site and its very comprehensive. Any issues I’ve had, I received quick and helpful responses, which I have greatly appreciated. The modules are clear, and you can follow your progress easily. There are lots of great links to videos and extra reading material for more information which I am finding very useful! The course is full of valuable, interesting and helpful information that will help make my transition from course to classroom much easier and less daunting.

I am currently completing the 120 hour online Course with the TEFL Institute of Ireland and really enjoying it. The course is easy to follow and is jam-packed with relevant information that is easy to navigate and access. I was a little bit worried that because I was doing the online course (instead of in class) that I wouldn’t have the same access to teachers/help when I needed assistance, but this has been far from the case! Whenever I have had an issue, I’ve received quick and helpful responses, which I have greatly appreciated.I would highly recommend this course, you can fit it around your own time and schedule without loosing out on quality.

I am currently doing the 300 hour, Masters Level 5 course with the TEFL Institute of Ireland. The course is great, easy to use, easy to navigate and packed full with so much, valuable, interesting information, which makes me so eager to complete my course and get my dream job of being a TEFL teacher! All the times I have been in contact with the TEFL Institute of Ireland they have been supportive, helpful and kind. The price for the course was such a bargain considering the amount of information and valuable courses that I received in my package! I haven't had any second thoughts about doing this course, it's the best decision I have ever made, and I recommend it to anybody considering doing TEFL! Thanks so much!

The 180 hr Advanced Level 5 TEFL suited me so well alongside my current university studies and at times complemented them in terms of critical thinking and resource management. It encouraged high standards and focused on exploring the ways of improving class cohesion and suitability to plans for different students.It also had some really insightful podcasts and interactive videos that round out learning, overall extremely helpful and flexible.

I would highly recommend TEFL Institute of Ireland accreditation. I am officially qualified as a TEFL teacher and its all thanks to the TEFL Institute of Ireland TEFL qualification course. I completed a 120 hours TEFL Institute of Ireland qualification and +270 hours observed teacher training. As a result, I have been working as an ESL teacher within private language schools and photography summer camps, primarily in Eastern Europe: Poland and the Czech Republic and through online platforms.

All the staff in TEFL Ireland were so helpful when it came to making my decision to teach abroad. They gave me great advice about my placement and were always so quick to reply to any queries I had. Doing TEFL was the best decision I ever made. It provides a great opportunity to travel and experience different cultures.

I have done the 120 hour online and then on 22 Sep I did the 10 hour practical workshop in Dublin. Was really concerned that it started at 9:30 and finished at 7pm that I would be bored and fall asleep.From the outset Michelle (perma smile), Kate and Katie kept the pace going, engaged us all in a great day of practical learning and good fun. It flew and my goals were fully achieved as after the 120 hour I felt good about the content but needed practical help and some experience. There were 12 of us and it was really a good and and a great group of people. Made a show of myself a few times.Thanks again ladies and and look forward to working with you in the future.John

Having finished a degree in theology, I struggled to find work. I came across TEFL Institute of Ireland which was offering a great deal for its 120hr online course. It is clear, accessible, flexible and engaging. I am so grateful to have found it as it has opened doors for me to find work, not only in Ireland, but in interesting and exciting places around the world! I recommend it to anyone who wishes to expand their skills in a practical and manageable way (and for those thirsty for adventure!)

I am doing the 120 hour course and find it to be laid out very well with well presented information. The support from the institute is very good.

So happy to have finished TEFL 120 course, it showed me how much can be done in a classroom to make teaching not only fun but more informative for everyone involved. Also the online resources and book recommendations are beneficial for how and where to start when it comes to entering the classroom for the first time.

Just completed the 120 Hour Advanced TEFL Course. I took it as a revision of my full-time 4-year degree in English Language and Literature obtained years ago. I often take online PD courses, and I found the option to save/print books being extremely useful. (I wish all online courses have this option available.) Looking forward to completing the rest of my 240 Hour Master Course!

At first I was very hesitant about committing to an online course with little knowledge of what I wanted to gain from it, but I couldn’t be happier with the course I chose to complete: Tefl 120! Not only was it laid out conveniently and packed full of teaching methodologies and even the history of teaching, but Ian himself behind it proved extremely helpful when I ran into difficulty with the course one day due to a technical glitch. Great content and great customer service! Would recommend!

Yesterday, monday march the 12th, I completed my 120 h advanced TEFL courses. Those online courses are well designed and very useful. I've learnt a lot about the methodology, the materials ans the content ! I just hope that not being a native English speaker (french citizenship) won't be an obstacle to find a teaching job of English abroad.

Just completed the 120 hour TEFL component of a 240 Hour Master Class. Modules were informative; well structured and very educational. I learned a lot and have a greater appreciation of written and spoken languages and linguistics. The Great advantage of this system is one can do the training in your own time and start back into a module wherever you left/logged off. The browser, at least in my experience, was initially difficult to navigate. Compatibility was best by accessing the TEFL site using Google Chrome rather that Internet Explorer

Ame Swayne

2017-12-21T18:07:12+0000

I had been thinking about completing a TEFL course for sometime and thanks to the guidance from the team, I decided to take the leap. I found the staff very helpful and informative and more than willing to discuss any questions that I had about the course. Overall fantastic customer service.Overall I really enjoyed completing the TEFL course. It gave me a better knowledge of the English language and I now feel more comfortable in my ability to transmit this to students.I would strongly recommend TEFL for anyone who may have an interest in teaching abroad.

Aidan Ashless

Was recommended by a friend to try one of their TEFL courses and was amazed by how engaging and user-friendly the course was. The course is broken up into succinct modules that provided me with a clear indication of my progress and made the completition of the 120 hours an anything but daunting task. I could continue to rave about my overwhelmingly positive experience with The TEFL Institute Ireland except alas I must now dash off to put my new qualification and skills to use in some beautiful exotic part of the world! And so my parting words are that I would 10/10 advise all aspiring English Language Teachers to choose TEFL Institute Ireland!ciao
