Can I fail TEFL?
It is possible to fail a TEFL course however, it’s very unlikely. To help you digest the course content, we’ll ask you to complete a series of quizzes at the end of each unit. You can complete these as many times as you need to so, don’t sweat it! Our tutors work endlessly with our TEFL students to ensure that they pass their assignments. As long as you follow their guidance and detailed feedback, you’ll glide through your course.

If you meet your unit deadlines, respond positively to your tutor’s feedback, and actively engage in your course, you’ll easily pass your TEFL certification!
Level of English
Native and near-native English speakers should have no problems passing a TEFL course as they’ll be able to understand course content and feedback.
