This is the second Premier TEFL course that I have taken, and this time I took the IELTS preparation course so I can help my students to prepare for the exam. It was very informative and I liked the fact that you can work at your own pace within a 6 month time frame.

The course is interesting, everything is to the point. It gives me the chance the repeat my university knowledge. Especially first modules... are exactly from my university program. The assessments are very detailed, it takes a lot of time to complete. I work in the school, I have to do my lesson plans as well, there is not enough time to spend by writing assessment. Once it took 6 days to complete it. I wish assessment could be in a form of the test where we could add only our examples. To my mind there is no need to print all the information from the course again. And also checking of the assessment takes time, it could be done faster. Anyway, thank you very much. I really love the course 💕read more
