Start Teaching English in Vietnam Through Our Vietnam TEFL Program

Ninja Teacher Academy is a first class organization from your point of initial contact, and continuing long after with the incredible on-going community that you will become a part of. I can't stress this part enough: what ever seems like an obstacle, or sounds too complex a task to handle, be it your visa, where to sleep, eat, or how to get there from your country, or to the actual school location, literally whatever information you need to […]

So thankful that I chose Ninja Teacher when moving to Vietnam. The four-week in-person course is excellent with regular opportunities to put teaching techniques into practice from the get-go. The teacher trainers have a huge wealth of experience in this industry and provide regular and thorough feedback and support.

Outside of the classroom, Ninja Teacher's relationships with schools and language centres allowed us to go and observe professional EFL teachers teaching real classes, and solo teach three classes ourselves. I think this experience has been invaluable to the beginning of my TEFL career and helped me transition to my current teaching role with confidence.

At the end of the four weeks Ninja Teacher provides one-on-one support with the job application process and, as such a reputable programme, language centres hold a certificate from Ninja Teacher in high esteem.

On top of the professional support, I think what makes Ninja Teacher unique from other programmes is the sense of community it provides. I came to Vietnam all on my own and scared, but through daily classes and alumni meet-ups I quickly found myself surrounded by friends. I would highly recommend to anyone.

I completed the 4-week in-person TEFL course at Ninja Teacher in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam in October 2022. Ninja Teacher is a great option for anyone looking to get certified to teach English abroad. The course is well-structured, and the teachers are experienced and knowledgeable. The best part is that they also offer job placement assistance which is very useful. I received a lot of help from the staff at Ninja Teacher and I would recommend them to anyone who wants to teach English abroad, especially in Vietnam.

This was a really great program. Not only did we learn practical and useful strategies/methods for teaching kids, but we also got to practice them. The instructors were very helpful and made it easy to understand, and how to implement the things we learned. This course really prepares you for teaching, but also prepares you for other things like taxes, good contracts, living expenses and etc. The job finding service they provide is very good as well. They make sure you understand what you are getting and even try to match you with what would be a good fit for you. They really go above, and beyond which is so comforting especially if you are in another country, looking for a job. Very informative, helpful and useful. I would recommend this to everyone!

Ninja Teacher truly excelled at every stage of the journey. They provided exceptional support in the process of preparing your documents and organizing your affairs for your entry into Vietnam. Once you arrived, their staff exhibited a wealth of knowledge and were incredibly helpful in all aspects, from advising on where to purchase a belt to recommending reputable motorbike rental providers. The course itself was rigorous and included valuable opportunities for real-time observations of experienced TEFL teachers, culminating in the chance to conduct your own solo classes, all with ample support.

Upon completing the course, Ninja Teacher continued to assist every step of the way to ensure you secured a job. It's worth noting that every member of our class received a job offer within just one week of finishing the course. Furthermore, they offered guidance on which companies to avoid and thoroughly reviewed any contracts that raised concerns, going the extra mile to safeguard your interests.

Signing up to the TEFL course at Ninja Teacher Academy was one of the best decisions I’ve made.

When I moved to Vietnam in November, I was feeling a whole lot of emotions. Ninja Teacher provided a caring, informative and crucial support network that I didn’t know I’d need.

The 4 weeks of training was thorough yet extremely enjoyable, thanks to the experienced team and trainers. We were able to gain invaluable in-class experience with students ranging from kindergarten to adults, which made my job much less daunting when I started working.

Aside from the course, the support network outside of the classroom went above and beyond. We were provided with amazing advice and video calls with the team before flying to Vietnam and even when the course finished, we were supported throughout the entire job searching process.

When moving countries, it is reassuring and comforting to know that there is a network of people who are always happy to help you. The course was also a wonderful way to make friends and form a home away from home.

Thank you to the Ninja Teacher Team!!!

Program: Vietnam In-Person TEFL Course with Full Job Assistance

The Ninja course introduces you to a group of people who will be studying with you, and provides opportunities to create last friends outside of the course. There is a monthly meet-up to help new teachers/students socialize and meet everyone, and alumni are free to join.

Their job placement program helped me get a job within a week of completing the course. It does NOT cost extra like some other courses I looked at. The provide details into required documents, how to get them, tax laws, and recommend a lot of foreigner friendly services from everything like dentist, doctor, mental health, or where to buy cheese.

I couldn’t rate this course much higher! Excellent support from everyone at Ninja Teacher and I feel ready to start my career and begin life in a new country! All the pre-course support was invaluable, the course itself is the ideal starter program to get classroom ready and the post-course assistance is second to none. I wholeheartedly recommend Ninja teacher! Big love to Sadie, Alex, Chi, Gem, Ivy, Miranda, […]

My entire experience with Ninja was so positive! Alex, Sadie, Chi, John, and Miranda were all amazing and helpful. They truly think of everything pre departure from your home country and upon arrival to get you situated in Vietnam and ready to start teaching english here. I loved my cohort and we all became friends which was an added bonus! Ninja became family for the month and the learning environment was so supportive. Sadie and John are amazing teachers and have an infinite amount of knowledge that we all grew from over the course of 4 weeks. I especially appreciated Sadie’s humor and enthusiasm! If you want a professional, well organized, and positive TEFL course experience, do it with Ninja! (Schools seem to respect Ninja during the hiring process as well)

Simply put - if you’re thinking of moving to Vietnam to teach English…. Go with Ninja Teacher. My experience was nothing short of phenomenal from start to finish and it’s largely in part to the incredible team and rigorous curriculum that Ninja has curated.

You will leave this program fully prepared to start teaching and will feel confident enough to take on the world. Thank you to Alex, Sadie, Chi, and Miranda for making it all possible.

I am so glad I chose Ninja Teacher to complete my TEFL certification. The staff will guide you through every step of the way and support you with all aspects of ESL teaching and adjusting to life in Vietnam. Employers clearly really value this course too for the in-person experience. Cannot recommend enough! You will get a complete TEFL experience with the course. And you make a great community of friends too!!

Ninja Academy is a great organization and there is not a better way to get tesol certified. The actual class provided me with a massive amount of information and techniques to become a very effective teacher. The benefits did not stop there. Ninja Academy hosts numerous events that encourage current students, alumni, and staff to get to know each other. Ninja Academy also provides a vast amount of resources to their students that we are able to access long after completion of the course. Following the completion, Ninja’s staff took nearly total control of the job search. This course is for more than just the certificate, but also lifelong information and relationships and full grasp of what it means to be a great teacher. I have a full time position and can already see how prepared I am because of Ninja Academy.
