May 14, 2025by: Diamond Jackson Jackson - United StatesProgram: Online Level 5 TEFL CourseFound the program to be well structured and thorough! One area I believe could be improved is the CV and cover letter template provided after the course. The structure feels a bit disorganized, and the content reads as if the course is still ongoing rather than completed.

It snowed in Ireland at the beginning of March, so bad that we were snowed in and were off our usual 9-5 jobs. I've always wanted to teach and my boyfriend always wanted to teach ESL. That's how this all began.

What inspired you to travel abroad?
The world of TEFL is always something that has interested me. I really believe in the power of teaching English in the general sense as well as the benefits that TEFL teachers can gain personally, economically, and professionally. The chance, therefore, to work for a company that provides people with the opportunity to experience this wonderful world of TEFL was something that I grasped with both hands.
