Misleading TESOL certification – has put my job offer at risk
I enrolled in the TESOL course with International Open Academy believing it would help me take the next step in my teaching career. However, I’ve discovered that the certification they offer is essentially meaningless when it comes to real-world recognition.
The TESOL certificate is “accredited” by ICOES and COES, which sound legitimate, but hold no official weight when trying to validate or legalize documents for international work purposes. I needed this certification to be authenticated and legalized (apostilled) in order to work in China as an English teacher. Unfortunately, I learned too late that this course and its so-called accreditation bodies are not recognized by government institutions — and that has now seriously jeopardized a job offer I had in hand.
This is incredibly frustrating. International Open Academy could have provided genuine guidance, stronger institutional ties, or real accreditation paths — but instead, what they offer is a surface-level product dressed up with flashy claims. There's no proper support or accountability from their side or from ICOES. No one is responding with clear answers.
I am therefore requesting a full refund for the amount paid, and I will also be writing directly to both IOA and ICOES to formally request this. If this is not resolved, I will be pursuing further action.
I do not recommend this course to anyone who needs an officially recognized teaching qualification.

Hi Massimo,
Thank you for sharing your feedback, and I’m truly sorry to hear about the frustration this situation has caused. We understand how important it is for certifications to meet specific international requirements, especially when tied to a job opportunity abroad.
To clarify, International Open Academy provides online training and certification for professional development, and our TESOL course is accredited by ICOES, a private accrediting body. While ICOES certificates can be notarized and apostilled in certain cases, they are not issued by a governmental institution, which means embassies or consulates may not always accept them for legalization. We always recommend that students confirm local requirements with the relevant authorities before purchasing additional documentation.
In your case, we did provide detailed guidance regarding the limitations of apostille services and the nature of ICOES accreditation before your purchase. Despite this, we understand you chose to proceed with ordering the ICOES hard copy certificate, which has already been delivered. Since this document was issued and fulfilled directly by ICOES, any refund request would need to be addressed with them.
We’re genuinely sorry that the course didn’t meet your expectations in this context. If there’s anything else we can do to support you or clarify further, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
Wishing you all the best, International Open Academy Team

Certified and Inspired: My IOA TEFL Experience
1. The company ensured that I did not miss out on this course even when there was a serious mixup in my payment details.
2. The customer service were excellent as they proved to be reliable, approachable, prompt and outstandingly helpful every inch of the way.
3. The company did so well in separating the study from the exam, creating no room for cheating, at least to the best of their ability.
4. The courses are standard as they were able to provide learners with the right exposure to relevant details of the curriculum and the job demands.
5. In terms of pricing, both the course and the certificate are affordable relatively.
6. The tutors are great, warm, cheerful and highly professional in their delivery. They ensured learners are equipped with the basics of ESL teaching.
7. In all, it was such a wonderful experience and I look forward to coming back. Until then, I promise to recommend this company to anyone, anytime, any day.
Thank you.

IOA CERTIFICATES
I believe that the International Open Academy (IOA) has significantly contributed to my professional development as a teacher. The courses offered are not only informative but also engaging, especially thanks to the use of visuals and video materials that make the learning process much more effective and enjoyable. These multimedia elements helped me grasp the concepts more clearly and retain the information better. As a result, I feel more confident and well-equipped in my teaching practices, and I am now able to apply what I've learned in more practical and impactful ways in the classroom.

I do not recommend the Face Painting Course
I took the Face Painting Course and cannnot recommend it to anyone. Multiple errors, spelling mistakes, audio issues in the video sections.
I did reach out to the customer service and was offered a fre course to make up for this. Customer service was quick to get back to me and professional.
Please bear in mind that not all of their courses include a certificate.

Hi Rebecca, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, and I’m really sorry to hear that you were disappointed with the Face Painting course.
Regarding your concern about the certificate: the inclusion of a certificate of achievement depends on the specific deal purchased. As a general rule, our courses do not automatically include a certificate, and it is offered as an optional add-on. However, certain promotional offers or bundle deals may include the certificate at no extra cost. We always recommend checking the terms of the deal at the time of purchase, and if there’s ever any uncertainty, our support team is here to help clarify.
That said, I’d really encourage you to reach out to our support team directly so we can take a closer look at your enrollment and resolve any outstanding questions or concerns about your course and certificate. We genuinely want to improve our service and would love the opportunity to make this right for you.
Thanks again for your feedback—we’re listening and working on improvements.

Taking the TESOL course from IOA
Taking the TESOL course from International Open Academy (IOA) was one of the best decisions I’ve made for my career. This course gave me a solid foundation in teaching English as a second language and equipped me with practical strategies, teaching methodologies, and the confidence I needed to step into the classroom as a professional.
What made the experience even more meaningful was how I discovered IOA. I was introduced to this trusted learning platform through Nova English Center in Bien Hoa, Vietnam. Thanks to their guidance and support, I was able to access a reputable and affordable TESOL program that fit perfectly with my learning goals and schedule.
The course content was clear, well-structured, and engaging — perfect for both beginners and those with some teaching experience. It not only taught me how to manage a classroom and create effective lesson plans, but also deepened my understanding of language acquisition and student motivation.
Today, I am proud to say that I am a certified English teacher — confident, capable, and passionate about helping others learn. I highly recommend the IOA TESOL course to anyone who wants to start their teaching journey. And a big thank you to Nova English Center for connecting me to such a valuable opportunity!

paying for certificate
I did the tefl course on here with a creator link I found on youtube. The creator mentioned that they send you the pdf certificate for free after you complete the course that you can use for applications.
But when I completed mine, I did not get a single pdf. The course purchase does not specify that the digital certificate is not included. After finishing the course, I now have to pay 33$ for a digital certificate. What's the point of buying a course when I can't even redeem a single certificate or proof of completion. It makes no sense because with the course quality, which has no videos or any other materials, you're paying all that money for nothing tbh. Not a single piece of usable documentation at all!

Hi Sisasenkosi,
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We're sorry for the confusion caused.
At times, we’ve included certificates in specific promotions, but these offers do change. It sounds like the YouTube video you used may contain outdated information—while the coupon may still be valid, the details of the offer might no longer apply. We always recommend that resellers and content creators keep their information updated, but unfortunately, we can’t guarantee the accuracy of third-party materials.
We also want to clarify that our Help Center and Terms of Use clearly state that certificates are optional extras, not included by default with course purchases.
We couldn't locate any contact from you in our system, and this issue could likely have been resolved quickly if you'd reached out to our support team. To assist you now, we've sent a request via the Trustpilot platform to get your contact information. Alternatively, you can email us directly at support@internationalopenacademy.com—we’re happy to help.
