I recently had the pleasure of attending the 10-hour Classroom Methodologies TEFL class, and can say with honesty it was an outstanding... experience. From start to finish, each stage of the course was presented with exceptional clarity, ensuring that every participant understood the concepts thoroughly.Our tutor, Kate Popova, showed consummate ease in creating a positive and engaging atmosphere. Kate's enthusiasm for the subject matter was contagious, and it was evident that she possesses a wealth of experience and expertise in TEFL teaching. This not only made the class enjoyable but also instilled confidence in us as learners.Despite the sessions being quite long, Kate skilfully managed the time by incorporating ample short breaks. These breaks were much-needed to recharge and refocus, and they helped us stay engaged throughout the lessons and activities. Surprisingly, considering the considerable amount of ground covered in both sessions, the time seemed to fly by.What impressed me most was Kate's practical experience in TEFL teaching; her first-hand knowledge and understanding of the challenges faced by teachers in the classroom allowed Kate to bring us to see the core of what truly matters. Kate's advice given during the teaching exercise was invaluable, providing us with essential guidance for our future endeavours.Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed the 10-hour Classroom Methodologies TEFL class. Kate's passion, expertise, and practical approach made it a memorable learning experience. I feel well-equipped and motivated to apply this learning, hopefully in the not-so-distant future. I highly recommend this class to anyone looking to enhance their TEFL skills and if it happens that Kate Popova is your allocated tutor, then fantastic: as they say in Scotland, "you've won a watch!" (Other tutors are available! 😁!) Well done Kate, keep up the excellent work! 😀 👍read more

I've just completed my 10hr virtual teaching course today, and I loved every part of it to the core. Our instructor Michelle was extremely... supportive, friendly and enthusiastic. I got to learn a lot of things from this short course and I'm glad that I took it up. There were many things that I read of, but I didn't know how to use them in practice and when she demonstrated them, I got to experience and well as got tips on using them. I'm cent per cent sure that this session will help me in the career I'm looking forward to. Last but not the least I'd also like to thank my fellow classmates who also ended up giving me loads of ideas. Really happy to be a part of it from the bottom of my heart. Thank you Michelle, thank you classmates, and a very big thanks to Premier TEFL for the amazing session. Thank youread more

There aren't enough stars to give this course! I've just completed my 310 hour Level 5 TEFL Diploma with Premier TEFL and it exceeded my... expectations. The content was well presented and the team has been thoroughly supportive from the beginning. My 10 hour hours Practical Teaching Course with Michelle left me feeling confident and ready to teach. She was encouraging, funny and supportive. She gave relevant feedback and interacted with every single student. She is 100% passionate about this. I didn't want the class to end. The courses are all worth it.I should have done this sooner!read more
