TEFL Heaven Limited - Coventry

So a couple years ago I applied with them for the Japan placement plus program that offered a job placement in the name. Not signed yet with the school my offer was given to another man by the third party xplore Asia by email. 1 year later I try to get the money back with my card company. I had to report them in the end. The south African Japan program director just stopped trying to even get me an interview which was the real reason the relationship ended. In effect A at XA blamed me for not getting a job, and scammed me out of $1200+

Owner said I'd get a quarter of the original amount back as a good will gesture. But no one says they'll help me when I was scammed actually getting that refund initiated even with my own evidence I took.

It really grinds my gears bc at no point in time was it a signed work contract. Just contact the merchant services it's a headach

Don’t let the six month placement guarantee be a deciding factor in choosing TEFL Heaven. Your placement is at their convenience and can take place considerable time after completing the course. Furthermore, certification through them offers no particular advantage in getting jobs with the schools they work with. It’s not worth traveling to another country to get certified only to have to return to your home country and wait until they give you the go ahead to repeat the whole expensive international journey again. I recommend simply getting your ESL teaching certification online. You will save considerable money and suffer no competitive disadvantage when applying alongside students who have traveled abroad to take TEFL Heaven courses.
Good luck on your ESL journey, whatever company you end up choosing for your certification.

Whilst exploring my options for travelling and working abroad I was recommended TEFL heaven through a friend that had used the service before. So I applied for a program with them because they seem like a genuine and well organised company that creates a positive culture for people looking for experiences of teaching abroad.
From everything I’ve experienced so far, the reviews I’ve read, my informal consultation and to actually signing up for the program, I have not been disappointed! Everything has been incredibly supportive and person centred throughout and I’m excited for the rest of my experience with them.
Would like to give a special thanks to Andy the advisor I’ve spoken too, who has been extremely helpful and easy to talk to!

I wouldn’t imagine moving to a country to teach English abroad using a different program because TEFL Heaven makes the move so easy and seamless, everything is really taken care of. What I also like is the endless links and connections they have worldwide so you basically are becoming part of an international platform with access to everything from training to material to online platforms and links. They were very responsive and had excellent communication. They were also incredibly professional.

Tefl Heaven is by far my favourite company to teach English abroad. It is family owned and has been making my experience very personal. They genuinely do care and want the best for each and every teacher they send abroad.

I applied at the beginning of January to teach English and Andy responded to my inquiry in a timely fashion. He answered all my questions about teaching abroad and was very helpful. He also has a Facebook group for all the Tefl teachers to connect with each other and he provides very informative information about teaching and living abroad.

I had my interview and was hired shortly after for the Balance in Bali program. After I paid my deposit, I was connected to Matt, who runs the program in Bali. He was also very helpful in sending me all the information on the visa process, accommodations, what to pack and fun things to do in Bali when I get down there.

Overall the experience with Tefl Heaven has been amazing and I feel very comfortable travelling abroad.

I have had a really positive TEFL experience so far, the communication has been clear and consistent and very helpful and insightful. Video calls were very relaxed and you are made to feel comfortable and welcome. I would recommend TEFL heaven!

Though they have been nice and polite with my during our conversation, I must warn others of this company. They are providing opportunities to attend their various English course and help only those get placements who are already quite privileged and would find jobs by themselves if they tried it. They are charging fees and helping out only the EU professionals get jobs. Not people from other countries. They try to pass it off with ostensibly reasons like ' We must follow the countries rules'. However, they are only taking candidates with 90% probability of getting placed, charging them £1500-3000, and then getting them placed. That's how they keep their hundred percent placement status. Nothing remarkable done by them. Just a bunch of opportunists with business smarts. Great work.👍

Edit - Fair enough. You have been straight forward. I am being the same with your potential customer. Nobody who is talented but not of EU origins, should come here with much hope. That's all. I am sure. Thousands of others who are provided placements by you, shall be offset this one teeny, tiny negative review of mine. After all, what's the value of an Indian's review. Near nothing. 😁

Application process was really easy and clear
Really excellent communication, could message Andy with any questions or concerns I had at any time, which helped me so much!
They have made moving to Thailand to teach English a much less daunting process and now I can't wait to arrive and get started!
