My experience with premier TEFl has been a good one! I would highly recommend using them to get a TEFL certificate as they offer a wide range of hours to take. I took the 180 hour course and learned so much and apply what I learn in teaching my English language classes.

This company met my requirements
I looked at several TEFL companies before I chose PremierTEFL, and I decided to go with them because of their fast and reliable customer support, and the UK government accreditation for their online TEFL Course which stood out. This company met my requirements regarding what I wanted in an online TEFL Course.
Great certification!
I've waited several years to write this review, and after 5+ years, this certificate has really opened doors and allowed me to prosper in what I do. To be able to get higher jobs, you'll need to pair it with other niche certifications, but this is enough to be able to teach in most countries in businesses or online and start developing your own reputation as a teacher.
I was able to secure an English…
I was able to secure an English Teaching position at a school in Poland. They even offer a course that teaches you how to use Artificial Intelligence to help with lesson planning! The program is not hard, but you need to apply yourself and you will pass the quizzes and test.
Amazing experience!
Really helpful course with lots of interesting information that will be so useful on an upcoming volunteering trip and later in my career!

Splendid!
The course was clear, practical, and very informative. I found the content on the test format and assessment criteria especially useful. The teaching strategies helped deepen my knowledge, for sure! I particularly liked the recommendations for further development, as they offered clear guidance on how to continue improving as an IELTS teacher. These suggestions were realistic, relevant, and easy to implement in my own teaching practice.

I had a great experience with Premier TEFL. One of the features I truly appreciate is the option to extend the course duration. As someone managing a hectic schedule, this flexibility allowed me to continue learning without added pressure. Another standout aspect is the 100% pass mark required for all assignments. While it might seem challenging at first, it really ensures you fully understand the content and gain mastery over the material—something I now value deeply. The curriculum itself is very well-structured, thoughtfully laid out, and easy to follow. Each module builds clearly on the last, with detailed explanations and helpful examples.
