The 120/hr course! Loved it!

The course dashboard was very clean and simple. I enjoyed that you could listen to the coursework rather than just reading it, I was able to do chores while completing my courses. It was a simple process in getting my certificate that I loved and recommend it for anyone looking for a more affordable course.

Highly Recommend!

Just completed the 120-hour TEFL course!
I learnt a lot of useful teaching pedagogies that have been very helpful for my teaching career. Since I’ve been teaching English part-time while also working a full-time job, it took me a little over two months to complete the course.

I really appreciated the audio clips provided for each section—it was great to be able to listen while multitasking. I even tried some of the suggested activities with my students, and they loved them!

Highly recommend!

Premier TEFL has got it!

I'm now almost finished with the 120-hour Advanced TEFL Course and I can say I made the right decision choosing it among many other academies offering the same certification. It's really a master's course covering a very comprehensive content: from the origins of the English language, to rules of grammar and syntax, to teaching techniques & pedagogy, and to lively classroom management including fun games! This course has got it! The interactive web interface/design also makes studying online even more exciting and absorbing. Thanks, Lisa and PT Team!

Comprehensive and great presentation

Excellent coverage of relevant aspects of TEFL (120hr course). Really helped my understanding and improved my approach in my volunteer role with adult migrant students. Great variety of presentation of the topics. Shout out to Lisa, who was extremely helpful when I needed assistance. Definitely recommend this course.

A Multi-Sensory TEFL Learning Experience

I am pleased to have completed my 120-hour Accredited TEFL course. The course material was delivered through a variety of formats: visual, written, and audio, which really supported my learning. Since everyone has their own preferred way of learning, I appreciated that the course catered to different styles. Personally, I’m a visual learner and enjoy hands-on tasks, both of which were well integrated into the training.

The time allocated to complete the course was appropriate and flexible. There’s also the option to purchase an extension if you need more time, which adds to the course’s accessibility. Additionally, I liked that you could download materials from different modules for future reference.

While there are a few areas that could be improved, none of them significantly impacted my learning experience or my ability to complete the course. Overall, I highly recommend this course for its comprehensive approach and its attention to diverse learning needs.

I also got in touch for support regarding the course and declaring my circumstances and Lisa was helpful and understanding in helping me with my needs.

New to TEFL

I enjoyed taking Premier TEFL's online120 hour course. It was well organized, easy to follow and up to date in terms of technology, websites and resources. Although I have delivered training to students before, I have no experience with TEFL and learned a lot.

Excellent TEFL Training with Great Support

I completed my TEFL certification with Premier TEFL and couldn’t be happier. The course was flexible and well-structured, allowing me to study at my own pace. Their Ofqual Level 5 accreditation gave me confidence that the qualification would be respected worldwide. The tutors were supportive throughout, and the job placement assistance really helped me land my first teaching role abroad. If you’re in Ireland and looking to start a career teaching English, Premier TEFL is a fantastic choice. Highly recommend!

What An Informative And Beneficial TEFL Course

It has been such an educational experience learning with TEFL Premier and Lisa,
Their 180 Hour TEFL Level 5 Course was very detailed and went into great depth in analysing what makes a great EFL teacher.
It helped us as teachers understand the what and how, the 101 of how to teach students of all ages.
I am personally teaching very young learners, and I found their teaching on this subject to most eye-opening.
Teaching children is not just about keeping them engaged, it is about helping them to be motivated to grow.
Overall, the range of subjects and concepts/methodologies that TEFL Premier managed to include and combine into one singular course is incredible!

An expansive dive in, that will broaden the horizons of your knowledge as a EFL teacher.

At such an affordable price, it's a true gem.

Lots of useful resources, examples and insightful writing, this is the perfect skill-sharpening course and will polish you all around in your overall abilities and effectiveness as a teacher.
I would say do not waste a moment or hesitate to buy this course, it will not just change your approach to teaching but will make your students appreciate you even more because you became the best teacher you can be.

I am really enjoying my Premier TEFL…

I am really enjoying my Premier TEFL Level 5 Diploma Course, the course is very comprehensive, in-depth and easy to follow. Each module is step-by-step beginning with language grammar and reliable teaching methodology. The course activities reinforce learning and the assessments can be attempted in multiple sittings, encouraging me to research and explore specific topics without having to rush. The course includes lesson planning and classroom engagement strategies that are particularly useful. I am feeling more positive and confident as the course progresses. Instead of feeling apprehensive, I now can’t wait to begin my teaching career. I recommend Premier TEFL to anyone considering a career in teaching English as foreign language.

Great material that aligns with graduate degree level content!

Honestly, this was GREAT.

i researched different companies. This course was comprehensive, yet flexible. You are given what is most closely like a school semester's worth of time to complete the course. Extensions are available for a fee.

The material included detailed information, instructional videos, teaching video examples, sample lesson plans, and plenty of useful links to be the best ESL teacher you can be!

The assessment platform is chef's kiss. I could save and return to complete the assessment which was super nice. Now if you think the assessments will be a breeze, think again. AI is a HARD NO. They have detection software. The questions require written, detailed answers WITH at least two or three outside references.

I work a lot so the assessments took a minute before I got the hang of things. At first I felt like why are these taking me so long but I appreciate that they want to make sure they are producing quality, not just quantity.

I learned SO much. I am in two graduate programs and the information I learned from my TEFL Level 5 course was helpful AND referenced in my teaching courses. This solidified the quality of PremierTEFL.

If you have not done work in a while, you get some check in emails to make sure all is well which was nice. The practicum is worth it. You get a feel for creating and implementing a lesson plan. My instructor was SO helpful. She gave advice and tips that added ease to preparing to TEFL in another country.

I give a HUGE thank you to the Premier TEFL team for offering these courses. I look forward to completing my other ones!

Completing Level 5 Diploma in TEFL

I recently completed the Level 5 Diploma in TEFL, and it was a truly rewarding experience. I learned a great deal throughout the course, and I can confidently say that my knowledge and teaching skills have improved significantly.

The methodology used in the program is highly innovative and practical. The lessons were well-structured, interactive, and always focused on real classroom scenarios. This hands-on approach helped me not only understand the theory behind teaching English as a foreign language but also apply it effectively.

This course has boosted my confidence as an English teacher and prepared me to enter the classroom with practical tools and strategies. I highly recommend the TEFL Diploma with Premier TEFL to anyone serious about becoming a qualified and capable English teacher.

Thank you to the entire TEFL Premier team, especially Anya, for such a professional and inspiring learning journey.

HYPERLINK "https://www.trustpilot.com/reviews/675ac07101354dd73405ece9" Flexible, ADHD-friendly, Supportive Staff
The 180 hour Level 5 course was comprehensive and affordable and has helped me to improve my pre-existing English skills and understanding of the grammar points I didn't get taught when I was at school! The Level 5 course was great for learning how to teach both adults and young students, both in the classroom and online. The course content is full of information and resources, allowing me to expand on my natural English language knowledge and skillset. Prior to the course, Rose was very friendly and helpful in clarifying what course would best suit me. During the course, the support staff were easily accessible, mainly online through Discord or via email, which suited me fine as I'm not particularly comfortable with phone or zoom calls. Jenny, Laura and Rachel were always friendly and very supportive, providing the right advice and suggestions that helped when I was in a tough spot. When life got hectic or the ADHD got in the way, they were flexible, giving extra study time to accommodate my circumstances and needs and always had an encouraging word or two! So very grateful to everyone at Premier TEFL for an excellent experience and helping me to get that much needed boost to my self-confidence and a sense of achievement that will help to carry me into the future. Thank you!________________________________________________________________–

Job coaching webinar

I'm still studying for my level 5 TEFL certificate and like that I can attend webinars with Emos to understand what the job prospects are. Emos has a good grasp of the industry, and shared his personal experience which spans over 15 years, so it was very useful and encouraging to hear from an experienced TEFL teacher. There were helpful tips from how to write a cover letter and tailor your CV for jobs, to where to search for the jobs. The time frame of the webinar is also appropriate.

I have just completed 180 hour Level 5

I have just completed 180 hour Level 5 TEFL with Premier TEFL from Conakry ( West Africa ). It was an outstanding experience and gave me a lot of insights. The contents of the course were well detailed, and would definitely enhance my teaching methodologies. I thank the course Assessment Officer Jenny and Olivia in Operation with their team for the availability and prompt assistance during this training session.
I am completely happy with my decision to complete my level 5 TEFL diploma online through Premier TEFL. It was a very thorough and quite demanding program, which is what I expected and wanted from a level 5 course. At the same time, it was definitely manageable. Working on it quite consistently, though not full time, I was able to finish the course in 10 weeks. The assessment tasks served as a very useful review and reinforcement of the learning materials. When I had questions, my tutor, Jenny O'Sullivan, always responded quickly, with helpful information. The course gave me the knowledge and confidence to jump straight into launching my own English teaching business. I already have 3 committed students, who have just finished week 6 of their first English course with me! Thanks Premier, for helping me get launched into my new career!

My Experience with the Premier TEFL Level 5 Advanced Diploma

I recently completed the Level 5 Advanced Diploma with Premier TEFL and had an incredible experience. The platform was user-friendly, allowing me to easily log in and complete modules on my laptop, phone, or tablet. The course was well-structured and allowed me to navigate through the content at my own pace over six months. The course themes were engaging, and the exams were challenging enough to encourage out-of-the-box thinking. Whenever I encountered a problem, my academic tutor, Jenny O'Sullivan, promptly responded to my emails and guided me in the right direction. I highly recommend Premier TEFL courses for both new teachers and veteran educators in need of a refresher or update, as I did. A special thanks to Philippa Stones, Luke O'Dea, Jacob Thomas, Laura Graham, and Olivia Klimczyk for always delivering the good news that I had passed each hurdle, and to Rachel Walsh for keeping me on track throughout the course.

Im very glad I did this course.

This course has given me a firm grounding for my journey into the world of teaching English. I particularly enjoyed learning about all the English grammar and the various different methods used to teach English as a foreign language. This course has also helped me in my personal study of other languages, by helping me to focus on certain areas or conditionals, which previously had always confused me. The understanding of how to create or plan a lesson and to make it flexible, interesting, and enjoyable for the learners, is also of great benefit, and I look forward to delving further into these subjects. Laura Graham, has been very helpful throughout this course, always ready to assist or provide reassurance.___________________________________________________________________

I just finished the 300hr Diploma

I just finished the 300hr Diploma online with The TEFL Institute of Ireland and the course was very interesting, mentally stimulating and most importantly totally relevant. I can agree with the previous reviewer. The course is clearly presented and methodical, with lots of resources made available to assist you with your understanding and progress. Since qualifying I have applied for 9 jobs and have been offered all but one. I think that part of this is due to the fantastic online breakout sessions/ surgeries. The tutors are awesome, especially Emos, who have been a beacon of knowledge and motivation. In our most recent session, there was an open forum on careers, recruitment and skills. he is clearly intelligent, very charismatic and 'can' be funny when he tries. I would definitely recommend this organisation to anyone looking to teach English as a second language, especially for those looking to teach abroad in Asia, the Middle East and Latin America where the course is highly revered._______________________________________________________________

TEFL- a 5 star course any day!

I have loved every aspect of this course. The support was great, especially from my Assessor Jenny O'Sullivan. There were times I almost felt like giving up, but the discussions and fast responses on the Discord group chat, especially from Jenny and Rachel, both assessors, spurred me on. I just completed and passed my final assessment!!I feel proud of myself!

Renew Your Love of Education!

As an educator in the United States for twenty-one years, it has been an absolute pleasure to have taken classes from Premier TEFL. I loved the course materials, but what I loved most was the supportive staff. Jenny and Shauna have been an absolute joy to work with throughout my academic study. Shauna was my contact support and Jenny was my assessor. They were kind, supportive, and attentive. As I created lessons that would support my future role as a TEFL instructor, Jenny offered suggestions and a new set of eyes. As educators, we must remember that throughout our lives, we must continue to hone our skills in order to strengthen our profession. These individuals sparked my love of teaching and creativity as I begin my new academic year. I highly encourage other educators to take a class. The classes renewed my love of why I chose this profession and my mission to share my love of education with the many students I teach.

I have just recently passed a Level 5

I have just recently passed a Level 5 310 hour advanced diploma with Premier TEFL. The course was very thorough and I was tested on my comprehension with several assessments. The course was efficiently laid out with attention to detail. I was supported along the way by Rosie, Sandra and finally, Olivia. All of these individuals answered any questions I had about the course and the process in which I would receive my certificates; these were delivered in a timely fashion. I have nothing but positive experiences with this company. I recommend the company for any aspiring ESL teacher.
