Comments from a few of our Level 4 ACTDEC accredited course trainees:
"This has been an excellent and convenient way of getting my teaching qualifications while being able to continue my other work."
William Powys
"I found the course content very relevant and practical. It enabled me to build up a portfolio of lesson plans and activities. I was very impressed with how quickly marked papers were sent back to me."
Rachael Sargeant
"Now that I've had some time to go through your comments and suggestions on my final module, I'd just like to say a big thank you for all of your help and support over the past few months. I'm delighted to have completed my course, and am looking forward to "pastures new" when I start teaching my first class next week.
I have to say that I've been very pleased with the quality of service and level of support that I have received from everyone at Global English, and that you (Martin) have been an exceptional tutor. I can't thank you enough for your prompt answers to my queries, helpful suggestions and comments, and also your book recommendations. You have helped me to grow as a teacher, and I have some useful teaching resources for future use."
Carol King
"The content was great. I had very little idea of the techniques for instructing students. This course really helped me understand how much more complex the process is than simply dumping information on them."
Dylan Littler
"I found the online (interactive) course ideal for my needs and thoroughly enjoyed learning the material. The tutor provided support and engaged with any queries so I could continue with my progress. The course not only equipped me but also gave me confidence with teaching ESL."
Angie Wheatley
"My TEFL course with you has been very useful and I found work almost immediately after finishing my course. I'm working for Linguish, a company based in Lille, teaching primary aged children both in schools and in their own teaching centre. I really love working with children. I also did a few years teaching adults business English with their other company Excelangues but I prefer teaching kids so this year I'm concentrating on that most of the time."
Clare Branch
"Course was graded well to build confidence as you went through. Lots of short questions to check understanding, but searching lesson plans and essay to do as well."
