What people are saying.

  • I would recommend this course to anyone who has been teaching unqualified but has been teaching for a while and has gained a lot of experience and needs a teaching certificate to get their foot in the door somewhere. I've been teaching for a while, being awarded an 'In-house' certificate and gaining examiner status for most of the English Language Exams but was requested to have a teaching certificate more than 120 hours. That's why I would recommend the course - it's quick and as an experienced teacher, it was still useful to revise the basics! Maybe the homework for some tasks could be more clearly explained but the UK TEFL team were extremely approachable and helpful in dealing for any queries / questions about the course, tasks and modules.

  • Doing the TEFL course has really helped me build confidence in teaching and explaining things clearly, especially to people who are learning English as a second language. Even though I’m still in sixth form, the course gave me useful skills like how to plan lessons, manage a classroom, and make learning fun and interactive. It also helped me understand how to be patient and adapt my teaching style depending on who I’m working with. It’s been a great experience and has made me think more seriously about teaching in the future.

  • My name is Daisy and I am a sixth form student currently completing my A-levels. I gained my 120 hour TEFL qualification when I was in year 12, and used it to participate in some volunteer work within the lower school. I acted as a TA for a year within this class of year eights and grew my confidence and experience. I decided to complete a 60 hour further qualification over the summer between year 12 and 13, which became a huge talking point on my CV and uni applications. I gained a place at the UEA studying Education, and the TEFL qualification helped demonstrate both my love of teaching and my ability to study independently. It’s been a great advantage when looking for volunteer opportunities within schools and I can’t wait to use it to take a gap year and teach abroad after I complete my degree!

  • I have regularly used my TEFL qualification when planning activities for Cubs and Beavers as a Young Leader, helping to increase engagement and usefulness for the young people. It has also helped me apply for a tutoring position during my gap year. I thought that the course would be really long and difficult, but if you break it into small chunks, it becomes a lot more manageable. Also, take screenshots! Just think of the fun you and your students could have in the future ;).

    Oliver, Level 2 Certified Learning Course in TEFL (120 Hours)

  • I completed the 120-hour TEFL course in February 2025 and since then, I have been doing quite some in person teaching - private 1-2-1 lessons, group lessons teaching Ukrainian refugees and I will soon start teaching group sessions at a private college. I am based in The Netherlands.

    Helena - Certified Learning Course in TEFL (120 Hours)

  • Since completing the TEFL course, I had the amazing opportunity to spend the summer teaching English to children in Italy. It was a truly rewarding experience that allowed me to put my TEFL training into practice, gain classroom confidence, and immerse myself in new cultures. I’m grateful for the skills and foundation this course gave me.

    Gursimran - Certified Learning Course in TEFL (120 Hours)

  • This course went far beyond the basics. I was actually really impressed with it, given that I have done several other TEFL courses which were nowhere near as engaging or educationally challenging. I would recommend UK-TEFL and consider using them for future further TEFL training.

    Stephanie - 40 Hour TEFL Refresher Course

  • Fantastic Service. I got my TEFL certificate a couple of years ago with another company and due to some red tape problems I had to do a refresher course with UK-TEFL in order to get it certified. They have been extremely helpful and informative along the way not only with the course itself but also with the legalisation process so if all goes well I will finally have it legalised pretty soon.

    Rebecca - 40 Hour TEFL Refresher Course

  • This course was excellent. Tough at times but using common sense helped work through it. I did the 180 hour course (with 6 specialist modules) in the 6 months allowed which allowed me to pace all the module fairly evenly. I would definitely recommend doing this course as it opens up many opportunities

    Tony - Level 3 Certified Learning Course in TEFL (180)

  • I thought the course was very well put together - the small units interspersed with practical exercises made it very engaging and I thought there was a good balance between theoretical knowledge and practical application.

    Karen - Teacher, Level 2 Certified Learning Course in TEFL (120)

  • I really enjoyed this TEFL course. I really felt like I was watching my favourite tv show - I just kept thinking “ I’ll just start the next module” and before I knew it I’d done hours of study . Very enjoyable. I’ve learned so much .

    Jacqui - Level 3 Certified Learning Course in TEFL (150)

  • I really enjoyed this course and found it really engaging and well-structured. I did find it difficult to navigate the website on a mobile phone at times, especially when trying to find how long I had left to access the course. Other than that it was great and so something I will use not just in teaching English but in working with young people too!

    Oliver - Level 2 Certified Learning Course in TEFL (120)

  • I needed a TEFL refresher course and took it with UK-TEFL. It was more intensive than my original course and the exam was more challenging. I found that to be a good thing and now I am working on getting my certificate authenticated. I have been teaching English for 7 years and even with that experience, there were still some grammar points, techniques and other bits of information that I didn't know. I recommend anyone who needs a TEFL certificate take their courses.

    Samuel - 40 Hour TEFL Refresher Course

  • I had no encumbrance in processing my certificate. Navigating the link was less stressful, unique, precise, accurate and timely. Hence, the organization has given me the platform to explore both the creative, imaginative, practical and theoretical perspective to delivering an unforgettable holistic teaching to learners from different background.

    Emmanuel - Level 3 Certified Learning Course in TEFL (150)

    Emma - Level 2 Certified Learning Course in TEFL (120)

    Amy - Level 2 Certified Learning Course in TEFL (100) Trial

  • Growing up in a British-Italian family, I understood the importance and benefits of learning languages. Not only did it allow me to communicate more freely with the Italian members of my family, it gave me an advantage in learning other languages, such as French, and from there my passion for learning languages started. This is why I was very excited to be offered a TEFL course, something that would give me the qualifications to allow me to make my love of language-learning a career. My school was offered the 120 Hour TEFL course, which was divided into many courses with a mini test at the end and then an overall test at the end. There were also two graded tasks, such as to create lesson plans or class games to a specific demographic of learners - how you did in this determined whether you passed with a pass, merit or distinction. My favourite part of the course was the fact that it taught us how to adopt the qualities of a fantastic teacher, such as understanding your class and their learning capabilities and creating learning games to make learning more engaging. These are skills that are often overlooked in teaching courses and I am so pleased that they were included in this course. In the end, I got a Pass with Merit, which I am very happy with. I hope I can use the qualification as the foundation for a career in teaching foreign languages or teaching English as a foreign language.
