Henry Harvin TEFL Course Review — Since my childhood, I had no idea about what a TEFL Course is and how it is important. My family knew that the mission and vision of my life is to establish myself in the teaching — line. So, on a fine day, my maternal aunt ( who is a successful content writer by profession) suggested I join a TEFL Course from where I can receive a certificate afterwards, written evidence of my qualification. I did my research on it to know about it better before enrolling myself in a TEFL Course. Remember, it is very important to take your time and see which Institute will be the best for you. I came across Henry Harvin Education Company and I went through the details thoroughly. I found it fascinating when I learned that it is basically a 9 in 1 course where I can get –

Seeing this I did not think much before hopping into this Course! I was ready to make the best out of this TEFL Course of Henry Harvin. The total duration of the course was 120 hours and it took only 4 weeks to complete it. The times of the batches are flexible enough so that they will not hamper your study time. I have the opportunity to attend unlimited batches for the next 1 year from the date of enrollment without paying anything extra.

After completing the course I have received AAFL Certified TEFL Course Certification from Henry Harvin. I am also aiming to get another TEFL Certificate from Cambridge by appearing in the Cambridge TKT Test. You also have the chance to attempt another exam in the UK to receive an additional certificate of Training Qualifications UK. Students also have the chance to become Microsoft Certified by taking the Microsoft Certified Educator Program.

The trainers of the course I had enrolled myself in were bliss. They are too much friendly, sweet and cooperative. After interacting with her for a couple of days I realized that she was really an experienced one (all trainers of this Institute have 10+ years of teaching experience). She had not only the proficiency about the topics but she also knew how to put them together in the most effective way.

Things I have learned –

  • How to clear the TEFL Certification Exam
  • Ways to understand the nuances of teaching English to non-English Speakers
  • Evolve and enhance my confidence in class
  • Nurture the most effective teaching skills and methodologies
  • In-depth understanding of learner’s psychology
  • Evaluate the candidates
  • Develop a unique and original lesson plan to teach the candidates.
  • Adopt effective class and time management techniques productively

Conclusion — I have wholeheartedly enjoyed the whole learning experience of this TEFL Course. According to my opinion, no other institute can match the standard of Henry Harvin Education in terms of education as well as opportunities. The TEFL Course of Henry Harvin Education has blessed my life.

All thanks to Henry Harvin Education for rebuilding my confidence and upgrading my knowledge and my skills. It has given me the wings to fly higher and higher. It has made my path wide for getting my dream job!
