I have just signed up for a course with TEFL Ireland. Any queries I have had about the course content and general enquiries have been answered promptly by Cillian either by phone or email. So far I can’t complain about the service and would recommend them to others seeking similar studies.

I recently completed the 10 hour virtual course with Michelle, and I found it really helpful. The teaching instruction was very easy to follow, and I had the opportunity to practice teaching a short class in front of my peers. Michelle provided useful feedback. I would definitely recommend this course to others.

I have just finished my 10hr Teaching Virtual Course and I must say it has taught me a lot! I really enjoyed the exercises and the way information was taught and shared with us as students but also as peers. Michelle K. was lovely and so helpful throughout the whole experience, I wouldn't have imagined anyone else helping me with all this. For anyone considering taking this course, I really recommend this for your own comfort in teaching and for any useful information for after your studies. I really am happy with it! Thank you!!

I contacted The TEFL Institute with. an interest in taking one of their courses. Killian Bukulin contacted my promptly and was most helpful in assisting me to decide which option was most suited to me. He supported me in my decision making without any pressure. He presented me with the different options and discussed the pros and cons of them. He was pleasant and very professional to deal with! I am delighted so far with my choice and this path! Thank you!......Update, having finished and passed the Level 5 TEFL course I am really happy with the level of support and guidance I experienced from Jenny, Laura, Anya and Jacob. Everyone whom I have dealt with have been so helpful and supportive! It was a pleasure doing this course with The TEFL Institute of Ireland!

I recently completed the Level 5 180 Hour Diploma with the TEFL Institute of Ireland, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience.The course itself was well-structured, comprehensive, and challenging in the right ways. It covers everything from grammar and lesson planning to teaching methodologies and classroom management. I particularly appreciated the real-world examples and the practical focus, which helped me feel more confident about stepping into a classroom — whether in person or online.One thing I really appreciated was the integration of self-assessment activities and multiple-choice questions throughout each module. These were a great way to check my understanding as I went along and made the learning process more interactive and engaging.Another standout aspect of the course was the support from tutors and staff. Whenever I had questions or needed clarification, I received prompt and helpful responses. The feedback on assignments was constructive and encouraging, and the platform was easy to navigate.In short, I highly recommend the TEFL Institute of Ireland to anyone looking to get TEFL certified. Whether you're aiming to travel, teach online, or start a new career path, this course is a fantastic first step.
