I did my course with SEE TEFL 4 years ago and it’s the reason why I live and work in Thailand ever since. I researched a few other courses before deciding to go with them and I am so glad for my decision.
Despite the fact … More that I had no previous teaching experience and I’m a non native English speaker the 4-weeks on site course equipped me with the fundamentals of being an EFL teacher.
Thanks to all the teachers at the language school for helping me build up my confidence, preparing me to sit in front of a classroom and know how to act as a teacher and
telling me what to expect when dealing with students in a foreign country.
Going to all the different schools in town for our observed teaching practices and doing an on-site lesson for most grades is the only way to experience what a teacher goes through at a school in Thailand. -

I completed and received my TEFL and TQUK Level 5 Certificate almost exactly 2 years ago.
Despite schools being closed due to strict Covid-19 regulations, John, Shouvik and the team made sure accommodate us in the best possible … More way!
Not once do I regret doing the TEFL course at SEE TEFL because in a generation where you have so many options, including obtaining an online certification, getting to experience raw teaching in a classroom definitely expands ones horizons.
The 4-week TEFL program equips you with life-long skills that you can always build up on as you diversify or, in other cases, specialize in the teaching field.
I can proudly say that I've been able to come this far and thrive in the teaching industry mostly because of my decision to go for the on-site TEFL program at SEE. Because of this course, I was able to teach at local Thai schools, as well as establish myself in online teaching.
John, Shouvik, Terry and the rest of the amazing team will guide you through every step, making sure that you are able to overcome any obstacles. So if you're thinking twice about doing a TEFL course at SEE, please don't!
PS: I was also one of the lucky ones to receive the last lot of the limited edition SEE TEFL shoulder bag :) -

I recently had the pleasure of attending SEE TEFL where l received my TEFL Certificate. SEE TEFL has truly exceeded my expectations.
One of the standout aspects of SEE TEFL was undoubtedly the incredible dedication of all … More their teachers, especially Teacher Shouvik. From day one, it was evident that he had poured his heart and soul into the school, going above and beyond to ensure every student's success. Shouvik's passion for teaching was infectious, and his commitment to our learning journey was truly inspiring.
Furthermore, Shouvik's extensive knowledge of the English language and his exceptional communication skills allowed him to effortlessly convey complex concepts in a way that was easily digestible for us. He had a remarkable ability to break down challenging grammar rules and vocabulary, making them accessible and applicable in our everyday lives. His patience and willingness to provide individualized attention truly set him apart as an outstanding educator.
Shouvik's dedication extended far beyond the classroom. He was always available to answer any questions or concerns we had, even outside of regular class hours. He invested countless hours in preparing comprehensive lesson plans and providing valuable feedback on our progress, ensuring that we were constantly improving and growing as Aspiring TEFL English Teachers.
Overall, my experience at SEE TEFL was nothing short of exceptional, largely due to the unwavering commitment and passion of teacher Shouvik. His genuine care for each student's success was palpable, creating a supportive and nurturing environment in which we thrived. I am very grateful for the knowledge and skills I gained under his guidance and would highly recommend SEE TEFL to anyone looking to become a TEFL English Teacher. -

I had a great experience studying my TEFL certificate here in June-July of 2022. All the instructors (Terry, Dean, Sultan, Shouvik, John) helped me become an effective teacher and shared advice on what to expect in a Thai … More classroom. The six teaching practices in local schools were also a critical part of my professional development.
The building is clean and well-maintained, and the office staff were helpful in getting me connected with teaching opportunities.
This program was the perfect gateway to get me started as an English teacher in Thailand. Recommend! -

I studied at SEE TEFL November to December 2022.
A professional and engaging in-person course from start to finish! I had been living in Chiang Mai for a year prior to taking the four week teacher training program. Everyone … More I talked to about various teaching training schools in Chiang Mai had either personally recommend the school, or knew of someone that did.
All the staff are kind, friendly, and helpful. Most of all SEE TEFL gave me the experience and confidence to try teaching. The in-class teaching practices were extremely helpful in building up my confidence.
Overall a great course. Highly recommend! -

I looked at 3 options to complete my tefl training in Chiang Mai. CELTA looked good but quite intense, speaking with CMU their course seemed okay but vague when it came to follow up post course. However after almost an hour … More speaking with John at SEETEFL I was convinced this was the course for me.Not only did it provide me with a fully accredited TEFL qualification, there were so many add ons that came without charge. For example they introduce students to Thai culture in a very practical and effective way with Thai language classes, exposure to cultural events and a full day learning about Thailands people and it’s history.And so much more. Apart from the high level of support and encouragement to get you through the 4 week course of theory and practical sessions at various educational institutions.SEETEFL assists it’s students to find teaching jobs, to get a Visa and work permit and explain the sensitivities of dealing with Thai government officials.With the assistance of SEETEFL I worked at a private school in Chiang Mai. I also worked with SEETEFL in a wide range of teaching opportunities through their school. From teaching formal Business English to company staff and individuals to small group sessions and 1 to 1 IELTS sessions with students.From my experience, the follow up was great. Whether I was seeking advice on health banking or social issues John and Ying were always ready to assist.I have happy memories of the 3 years that I spent in Chiang Mai and through those years a common denominator that contributed to my happiness was John and Ying and the SEETEFL staff.

I am in my last few days of training at SEE TEFL and I would like to say to anyone thinking of taking the course, just do it! I think it's fair to say that the course feels intense at times but once it is complete you … More walk away with a tremendous feeling of achievement. I feel confident, well rounded and ready to take on my role as a TEFL teacher. There is an abundance of support on offer from the staff and their ability to communicate all facets of teaching practice is exceptional. I'm so glad I took this course and would like to say a great big thank you to all the staff at SEE TEFL. Keep on producing great teachers!

I took my TEFL at SEE way back in 2008 and so glad to see so many successful grads have come through since. This course was the catalyst to my teaching career. Through pursuing the certificate to shortly after (only two weeks!) … More getting a full time teaching position, to then deciding to achieve a B.Ed, I worked my way into the international school scene and have been enjoying my career ever since.The team here is so supportive and the course provides you with just the foundation you need to get into teaching English to ELLs.

After researching many Tefl course providers I decided on SEE Tefl as John replied to my questions promptly and professionally. I could gather from his emails that this was a professional outfit. I thoroughly enjoyed the … More course and on the last day Ying offered me a 6 week teaching stint at a Nursing College in MaeRim. Not long after that I took up a permanent position at the first private school they managed and spent the next three years teaching at various institutions they had contracted.The office staff were also very helpful and friendly. I have since referred friends to SEE who were also happy at SEE Tefl.
