Danell Bester
From Dream to Dubai
“To Zhivahn and the team, thank you for changing my life. To any teachers out there wondering if you should take the leap... DO IT. No risk, no reward.”
Danell began her TEFL journey in August 2025 with incredible support from Zhivahn and the team. From embassy documentation and certification to interview prep and a UAE-standard CV, the team went above and beyond. By January 2026, she was living and teaching in Dubai — a life-changing move she credits entirely to The TEFL Support Lady network.

I had such a positive experience working with Courtney throughout my TEFL journey. She gave me excellent advice, explained everything clearly, and patiently walked me through each step of the process. Courtney was always supportive, knowledgeable, and encouraging, which made the entire experience feel much less overwhelming. I truly appreciate her guidance and dedication, and I wouldn't have felt as confident without her help. I highly recommend Courtney to anyone starting their TEFL journey.

Very rapid service, full support throughout the entire process and eases the task of finding and landing a job by a great margin. Friendly and supportive during all stages of the process. Definitely worth it, if you're planning on or desire a career in the online teaching space.
