Why study with Oxford TEFL?

Really useful course - and immediately useable in the classroom. I thoroughly recommend it!

Even with years of experience, we teachers sometimes overlook effective ways to connect with our students. Courses like this can provide valuable insights and open up new opportunities to enhance our teaching strategies.

I'd like to share my experience of taking an online course on teaching pronunciation. The course itself turned out to be a great combination of theory and practical assignments, which has certainly helped boost my confidence and skills in terms of teaching pronunciation. My tutor's feedback sessions proved to be highly beneficial as well, both really informative and enjoyable.

For those looking to further hone their skills in CLIL or maybe you have just finished the CELTA course, investing in the CLIL course is definitely worthwhile. The tutors are patient and extremely knowledgeable. Not only are you leaning about the course but you are also learning about yourself and how you can implement the learning in a practical manner.

One of the best teacher training centers to obtain new pracgical skills and knowledge for one's self-development as an ESL teacher

Some really great courses available. Myself, I already have taken 3 courses from Oxford TEFL. Very nice and qualified tutors available to help as well. The courses were easy to follow and I could do all the learning in my own pace. Highly recommended!

I had a great experience studying with Oxford TEFL and was offered my first position as a Director of Studies before even completing the course. An excellent choice for anyone who wants to get into academic management or deepen their knowledge of teaching best practice. Also very affordable, as Masters'-level qualifications go.

I completed the managing and supporting teachers course with Duncan and he was a wonderful tutor. I enjoyed all the real-time Zoom sessions with him. I wish I could visit the school in person one day to thank all the great teachers I have met there!

Excellent tutors and great courses!

I've just finished the teaching Business English course, It was really helpful and enjoyable for teachers with or without experience, the content is rich with materials and subjects, Teacher Charlotte is a great instructor accompanied me during the course and guided my journey with useful information, feedback, advice and hints with a high level of communication and time management/arrangement. Thanks for her efforts and I really recommend the course with Oxford tefl.

It’s a great centre, the instructors are amazing. I got to learn a lot under them. They provide immediate feedback and always maintain a personal touch to help. I apologise for missing on the email's response. It was in the spam for reason. Thank you so much.

I have recently completed online TEFL Starter course from Oxford TEFL. The course content is extremely good and I have gained confidence in pursuing an advanced TEFL certification. So, I am taking up online CELTA course soon. My mentor Hada Latim has been very supportive. She has given me invaluable feedback in all the tutorial sessions.

I've just completed the online CELTA course, one of the most extraordinary experiences of my life that I'll never forget. The tutors and staff were incredibly professional and supportive, providing a friendly, helpful and encouraging environment throughout the course, which I'm genuinely grateful for. All necessary materials were provided, making the learning process seamless. I highly recommend this centre and the CELTA course.

Charlotte was an incredibly supportive mentor and tutor. I learned so much for her and never felt like I couldn’t ask her anything. The course itself was interesting and relevant for me, I enjoyed the fact that there were practical options for assignments that I could apply in my own teaching.

Trinity DipTESOL demands the courage of a Himalayan climber, the stamina of a footballer and the patience of a chess player. But once you lift the DipTESOL trophy, all the injuries and pain you had to endure during the journey would vanish into thin air and take you to the realms of bliss. The coaches at Oxford TEFL base camp make sure you are motivated all the time, and prepare you to weather the storm. Tutors at Oxford TEFL know how to conquer the Peak. As many of them have hoisted their flags there well before. They know the way up. Their training and feedback makes the rough ride easy. Trust me; the view from the top is beautiful. It’s a journey worth taking! Oxford TEFL has changed my English-teaching life 180 degrees. Thank you Oxford TEFL for helping me conquer Trinity DipTESOL. Rohini Vaid, India (Trinity DipTESOL)

The program was in a flexible online format that I could do alongside my regular work without traveling. The content was interesting and touched on multiple points relevant to teaching Business English. The tutor gave valuable feedback and encouragement. Overall happy to have taken the course!

I took the Online Starter Course in mid-2022. It was great and really helped prepare me for when I took the full CELTA course in person that same year! As far as the full CELTA course goes, the tutors were attentive, knowledgeable, and approachable. The workload was intense, but not overwhelming if you can manage your time well. Most importantly, if you put in the work, you can definitely see the results as the course progresses. I couldn't be happier with the whole experience!

Oxford TEFL has provided me with all the tools I need to successfully teach ESL. The staff has been wonderful and they go above and beyond to provide assistance to students who need more support. I definitely recommend their courses as they will greatly contribute to your professional development.

Fantastic school providing high quality teacher training and development. I completed the Leadership in ELT course and it was really worthwhile for me as a teacher and a leader. Thoroughly recommend it. I rated it that highly that I am now studying my DipTESOL here. Really, a top quality course provider.

I was there to check it out and started my CELTA training with them its a very good center and I'm glad to say that I chose this center for my training

Teaching IELTS is the first course I have taken with OxfordTEFL and I think I have made a really lucky shot. Lots of very useful information and practical advice, many tips to take away and implement in my own lessons. I particularly appreciated the information about Reading and Listening, it helped me a lot. The course gives a deep insight into the exam itself and gives a very clear idea about the skills tested, the way they are tested and how you can prepare your students for this exam. Thank you, OxfordTefl! Special thanks to the tutor, Hada Litim. A top professional and a very friendly and charming person. She doesn’t think for you, she stimulates your thought and this is invaluable. I am looking forward to my next course with OxfordTEFL!!!

“Teaching English Online” is my second course with Oxford TEFL Teacher Training. I am really impressed with the professionalism of my tutor, Ollie. Ollie’s striking personality is the first thing you notice while communicating with him. His long-term experience in the teaching field shows up at once; his ability to explain things simply and to the point is what makes him indispensable as a teacher. I have gained very substantial knowledge in 3 weeks’ time, which will help me immensely in the future. Thank you very much! The “Teaching Business English” is another course I would definitely recommend to English language teachers who want to specialize in Business English teaching. This course has given me all the necessary skills, tips, various resources which are extremely important in understanding the concept of BE teaching on the whole. Special thanks to Billie Haase, my tutor, for her exceptional dedication and love for what she does. Thank you!

Highly recommendable training. The service was professional and efficient. My tutor was the best! A very knowledgeable, kind and flexible teacher <3

I enjoyed taking the "Teaching Cambridge Exams Course" (TCEC) more than expected because it wasn't as strict as the CELTA and the 3 written assignments could be chosen between several interesting alternatives. The supervisor Tim was friendly, supportive, and provided excellent feedback and positive reinforcement on what was good and something that could have been added. The online content included a broad variety of additional resources which at times seemed a bit random but were (and will be) useful. Recommended.

I first took a course with Oxford TEFL in September 2012, when I took the Trinity College London CertTESOL with them in Prague. I had a great experience, and, when looking to get back into English teaching, I decided to take the Teaching Online certificate, which I have just completed in December 2020. From speaking to Fran Austin, I was given the information I needed to consider taking the course, and was not rushed into a decision at all. I found the course excellent value, with three one-to-one sessions with my tutor, Ollie Wood, who was always in touch throughout the course, and took my individual needs into account. I would highly recommend Oxford TEFL for both initial teacher training, and development courses, and I am likely to continue to use their services!

I have completed BE course, amazing course, Thank you Charlotte Giller for your professionalism and support!

I have recently completed my Business English Teaching Course through Oxford TEFL. It has been an incredibly rewarding experience. This course takes you on a journey which not only empowers you to be an effective Business English Instructor, but to continually grow as one. The support you receive from the tutor is also amazing. Thank you Oxford TEFL!

I took the Teaching Cambridge Exams course with OxfordTEFL and it was as extemely positive experience! Great support from the tutor, Billie, who gave me very valuable feedback on each assignment as well as being very supportive and encouraging. Highly recommended!

I've just completed a CELTA course with Oxford TEFL Barcelona. The tutors were very helpful, experienced and knowledgeable. Everything is super organised and the whole course flowed smoothly without a glitch. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Oxford TEFL to anyone considering teacher training.

I have just completed the young learners development course with Oxford house alongside my first teaching job in Spain. The course has been invaluable to me, giving me new ideas and strategies for running a large classroom of young learners. My tutor was also fantastic, going above and beyond to support me throughout.

I have just completed the online Teaching English for Academic Purposes and would highly recommend the six week course. I enjoyed the autonomous learning aspect of the course with help at hand from Tim Brown whenever there was a question or a query. The materials included interesting articles and videos which were well chosen and very informative. I certainly gained insight into TEAP and found lots of helpful tips for the classroom. Many thanks!

I started off taking Spanish classes with Oxford House, then I took the CELTA part-time online course which was so valuable for my teaching career. I have recently finished the Young Learners teachers development course. Which again was os valuable. My experience with Oxford TEFL was amazing, the processes were easy and they answered many of my questions.

I really enjoyed the online one-to-one Teaching Business English course. The course covers everything you need to know to feel confident in the classroom. My tutor gave me personalised attention and support. She also provided me with various ideas and resources that will be useful to my future position—all of this in a relaxed and helpful atmosphere. I would strongly recommend this course to any teacher who would like to develop their teaching skills in the Business English area.

I truly enjoyed the online young learners course, totally recommend it...

I´m very grateful to Oxford TEFL for the invaluable knowledge I´ve gained during the CELTA and the three Development Courses I´ve recently completed: Pronunciation, Cambridge Exams and Business English courses. I want to thank all my tutors, Bjarne, Jane, Hammed, Mark and Charlotte, for their support, dedication and passion for teaching. It´s been an incredible experience that I wholeheartedly recommend to anyone who wants to develop their teaching skills.

I did my CELTA in Prague with Oxford TEFL in 2018 and now I’m doing a Leadership in ELT course with Duncan. Greatly curated materials, I feel like the course saved me a lot of time.

Completed “Teaching English Pronunciation” course. It’s was a great experience for 6 weeks. Course helped me to integrate pronunciation to my English class. Thanks a lot to my tutor - Mark. He helped and guided through all difficulties and questions I had. Hope to study here more in the future. I will definitely recommend it to my colleagues.

The CELTA I took here in 2020 was a wonderful experience for me, and I would wholeheartedly recommend Oxford TEFL to anyone who's considering taking it on. The tutors stimulate you to view things from a different teaching perspective.

I have just finished Teaching IELTS course online, and I feel motivated now to teach IELTS. The materials are very valuable, it gives me a deep insight of everything related to teaching IELTS. The tutor, Tim Brown, is very knowledgeable and supportive. This course is highly recommended.

I have just finished my Leadership on ELT course. I highly and confidently recommend it to anyone in managerial positions within the language training industry. Duncan Foord was an amazing tutor. I have learned a lot about myself and become more aware of how to effectively use my time and prioritize my tasks.

Helped to build the much-needed confidence at the beginning of my ELT career! Grateful for the constructive tutor feedback and reflective assessments 🙂

I have just finished my Teaching IELTS Training course. It was about 30 hours of hard work, self study and direct tutorials. My tutor was Tim Brown who I can't find enough words to describe. He is supporter, knowledgeable and professional. His feedback was so helpful and motivational. Thanks Tim and thanks Oxfordtefl.

I was very apprehensive when I was told to sign up for this course, however, Tim, was a wonderful tutor. I was put at ease and from a bundle of nerves I, was able to complete the course without any hitches. A good experience for me as I was able to feel like a student after 31 years of teaching. The course content was well-tailored to the needs of teachers who would be teaching EAP.

The course for teaching Business English was extremely interesting and useful, with a lot of practical tasks which could be used during a job interview. The tutor is lovely and always available for any question.

I've just completed Ielts teaching course. Great experience! Supportive tutor, practical course.
