TEFL Graduates

The 40 hour online course was a well organized and useful program. I learnt a lot and I am looking forward to gaining more experience through practical work. A huge thank you to my online course tutor Gordon for his prompt responses and encouraging and helpful comments. Karen Bradford

I loved the fact that the course was online and was easy to understand. The feedback from the tutor and help from my tutor, helpdesk and director was fantastic – everyone that I interacted with was helpful and organised. Kate-Lynn Reeder

I was able to complete it on my own schedule and was given very quick and useful feedback by the tutors! Jeanne Boisseau
