I'm thrilled to have been able to complete my TEFL in my own time as I work two jobs. The tests at the end of each section were not at all stressful as there were tester questions throughout your learning, which really helped everything sink in.
I'd really recommend the additional practicum as well where you can put your new skills into practice with real students, it was vital for my confidence going into teaching for the first time.
