Im currently completely the level 5 advanced diploma and I am so pleased with the course itself and how helpful and encouraging the tutors have been throughout the course. It has not been without its difficulties of course but ultimately very educational and very nurturing in its approach to helping students get the best out of it and themselves!
Marriette
From my first introduction to i-to-i I was amazed how professional, helpful and friendly the staff is. There are so much support from them that I find it unbelievable that any student can not manage and preform in this course. Great job to each and every employee at i-to-i.

I have recently just completed a couple of courses with i-to-i! What an incredible team! From the admin team, to the academic team, to my current experience working with Jordan Williams, who has been a superstar assisting me with my CV and where to find the ideal job! I appreciate working with a company that handles everything so professionally. Thanks to the entire team, especially Jordan for your patience and guidance!

i-to-i has honestly been amazing since I bought the course in 2020. They are so friendly and helpful. With my course, any questions I had they were there to gladly assist me, even if I phoned 2 / 3 times a day and now that I have finished Jordan has been amazing helping me with my CV and doing it correctly so it grabs the employers attention. So grateful for all the help I have got since doing the course.

I completed my TELF Level 5 Diploma with i-to-i last year and decided to try out one of the internships. I had so many questions but Nikki was extremely patient and helpful and answered every question leaving me feeling more at ease each time. Even after signing up, she has still offered guidance and support which gives me peace of mind. I would definitely recommend i-to-i to anyone interested in TEFL. Excellent customer service all round!
Mpho K
I would like to thank Frances Baylis. She has been so helpful and kind to me throughout this process. Because of her I was able to purchase the appropriate tefl course. She didn’t mind helping and answering any of my concerns. I can’t wait to start teaching !
Thandokuhle
I had a very easy time enrolling, the process is smooth.
Jeanelle Jefthas
i-to-i is by far the best institution to do a tefl course through. Gazing customer support, communication and updated resources and content.
Francesca Sacchetti
I would like to thank Jordan W. and the job seeker support team for their help and support. I was not confident at all about my resume and cover letter and I asked for some advice. Jordan kindly gave me precious suggestions and guidelines. I really appreciate his support.
Keisha T. Mendez
Nikki J. helped me with all the questions that I asked and my mind was already made up that I would definitely be paying for the course she is very nice and kept up with me through email despite me answering very little because of my lack of time. I would also mention that after I bought the course she still helped me and I have no doubt if I would ask for help in the future she wouldn't hesitate.
Maru
I have just finish the i-to-I Course for getting the Level 5 300 Hour Online TEFL Diploma. It was a great experience!!. The course is well written, with a good combination of theory, resources, bibliography, quizzes and assignments. The feedback of the i-to-i teachers to the assignments is positive and constructive. They will always respond to your questions in time. I will definitely recommend i-to-i to those who ill like to become an English teacher.
Madisen Cornett
Nikki helped me so much and gave me some great information. She answered every question I had! I just applied for one of the internships and she said she will still help me at any point.

I have had dealings recently with Sahm, he not only gave me feedback to assist me with my assignment but ran the extra mile. It was a pleasure having had Sahm assisting me. Thank you, much appreciated Sahm.
Andrew Owen
I had previously used i-to-i several years ago to enable me to start my TEFL journey. I have just purchased some additional units as CPD to ensure that I am up to date with current methods. Gemma James was very helpful and explained all the options that are available to me. I'm looking forward to starting my new Modules. Thanks.
Jean-mare Dickson
Quick response on email where I identified a problem.
Tania Witbooi
I started my diploma last year, I made contact with academic support and met Sahm. He has stuck by me, supported me, guided me and much more. Sahm is a gem, I will treasure. Thanks for everything. Nearly there, last hurdle, continue to push on, this is a great course.
Fiona Gunn
Sophie Howden was very helpful in directing me to the correct site for me. Her responses via email were very prompt.
Suvithtira Sellamuthu
TEFL at i-to-i was a fantastic course for anyone interested in teaching or even just getting started in the field, as I was. I'm not a native English speaker, and I wasn't sure if non-native speakers could get a job as English teachers, but after enrolling at i-to-i, I learned that was a possibility. The training is quite well-organized, and it guided me through each stage of the process, making it incredibly user-friendly. I would strongly recommend anyone interested in teaching English to take this course here at i-to-i. Even their job board has numerous job opportunities for all categories. I can't wait to get started on a job. Thank you i-to-i!

I enjoyed this course so much! Tutors are always on standby to help and reply within a day's time. You are always supported through out the course.
Wayne Lynch
I can say that I have already recommended i-to-i to a co-worker for his mom. I might not have had any questions during my course and the reason is the course instructions was clear, concise and easy to follow. That would indicate that i-to-i did a phenomenal job with the course structure. The price can't be beat and paying the little extra to get my assignments graded quickly was money well worth spent. When I had questions for other reasons, I received a response very quickly. I have already started the IELTS course with i-to-i and I will say that it has been an awesome experience and i am glad that I chose this organization for my certification.
Marlene Nouhra
I am writing this review because I want to thank the i-to-I team for their constant encouragement and support throughout the course. Please don’t hesitate to join and sign up for a course because you surely won’t regret it. On the contrary, once you’re done with the course, you’ll be excited to consider another one because of the sense of achievement that will be absolutely overwhelming!! The best thing about the course is that you study at your own pace and moving from one phase to another is clear, simple, and concise. I am so grateful that I learned all this material in a very short period of time.
