D. Which competitors have made the assertions?
A rogue handful of our business competitors are responsible for trying to trash our reputation online.
The most prolific of these is Ian Patrick Leahy, who runs the ESLinsider TEFL program.
The ESLinsider (unaccredited) TEFL program is run exclusively by Ian Patrick Leahy.
ESLinsider has been banned from Facebook (since 2017) for spamming and publishing misinformation, and it has had a number of its videos deleted by YouTube for the same reasons.
ESLinsider is notorious in the TEFL world for writing fictitious, malicious content about its business competitors – on anonymous complaint websites, discussion forums, Reddit, on the blogs it runs, etc.
Pick any TEFL accreditation body, TEFL program, or TEFL reviews website – ESLinsider (and his many online aliases) will have written some trash about it.
Ian, btw, began the ESLinsider TEFL program after a short time teaching English in Asia, and he has no formal education in TEFL/TESOL.
Ian has also been accused of providing terrible advice to his TEFL students – such as working in China with fake diplomas – and this could be one of the reasons why Ian now runs ESLinsider part-time, while spending the majority of his time driving across the USA in a used postal van and finding seasonal jobs on ski resorts.
If you read anything negative online about TEFL Online Pro, it was very likely written by one of our business competitors.
However, we do, of course, understand that not everyone can be satisfied with our products and services.
If and when a customer writes a complaint, we always aim to respond to that customer with complete understanding and right a wrong.
Currently, though, not one of our customers has written a negative review of TEFL Online Pro.
The only negative content written online about TEFL Online Pro has been written by our business competitors.
