iteach Avis 

Company misinforms students.
I was looking to be certified in Business and Finance because that was what my temporary certificate was in. I found a program that would pay my tuition into iTeach, however they suddenly stopped certifying in Business and Finance (which was infuriorating because of friend of mine had been admitted into it when they did offer one month prior).
They offered to try to certify me in something else like marketing, but I didnt have the employment history required for that. Then someone at iTeach told me I could apply for the training as an EC-6 Core subject teacher and when it came time to certify, I could take the test for business and finance.
Fast forward to today when I finished all of the preliminary coursework and found out that they will not let me take certification prep tests in Business and Finance and that I will be required to teach EC-6 Core subjects for one year after certifying, which was not told to me when I signed up. I got a three year temporary certificate in Business and FInance and I am currently teaching for a second year full time in that field and I do not wish to be an elementary school teacher.

The user-friendly setup for the program is great. Also they have support for any problems that respond promptly.

I-Teach Louisiana made my path to teacher certification smooth and manageable. The online coursework was flexible and easy to fit into my schedule, and the team was supportive throughout the process. I appreciated being able to work while earning my certification. Overall, a great experience. I would recommend I-Teach Louisiana to anyone looking for an accessible and effective way into the teaching profession!

There was a lot of confusion about what praxis tests to take. Specifically, adding a science of reading praxis when I thought I was done, which caused me to miss my residency deadline. However, every person I spoke with was very kind, patient and helpful.

My experience with iteach has been positive!

It was just a great overall experience granted it took me a long time to complete because I was so burned out from finishing college, but I’m glad I did and I’m glad I chose iteach. Everybody was always willing to help.

Ms Butler was great!

The interaction with my observer was excellent. I was given great feedback. I learned a lot from my advisor. Lifelong lessons.

Iteach provides a valuable, self-paced curriculum that will serve help new teachers transition into the field of education. The professors are responsive, return emails promptly and provide helpful feedback when needed. The program is cost-effective compared to other ARL programs. I would highly recommend potential teachers to enroll and get started.

I had a tough road completing I-teach classes on time. I had a plethora of individuals from teachers to administrative staff talk me off the ledge in numerous circumstances. I don't know much about the other programs but I-teach did prepare me to teach first day. They provide an over abundance of sources you can go down the rabbit hole if you choose. So there was the core information and tons of research you could access in your areas of interest. It is hard but would you want an easy program preparing future teachers for your child?

This program was flexible and convenient. The price was within my range and the payment plans were so convenient!

I will have to say my experience was great and not one delay. The prompt response to the simplest questions I asked I truly appreciate them!!! I can't believe I'm finally a teacher. They are confident in you'll pass and they show it with there assignments they give. Take your time and choose iteach! So worth it!

I enjoyed the user interface for the courses and the ability to do all courses at my own space .

The process of getting certified went very smoothly. Any questioned I had were answered, and answers usually came within a couple of days.

Although this process was quite frustrating I am truly appreciative of the help I received from MacKenzie, Sydney, Dr. Roberts and Adrian. Initially, the response time was not helpful. The 24 hour responses were not valid but as soon as I was able to connect with someone who understood my situation (licensing deadlines), everything went very smoothly. No access to a voice mail or the opportunity to talk to someone other than email was concerning. The above 4 people really came through for me at the end of the process and I am grateful for their help and support.

The website was user friendly and the whole process was easy to follow step by step.

For my teacher certification I was the most pleased with this company and ease of obtaining my certificate. HOWEVER, my second experience has been a NIGHTMARE. Incompetency and carelessness is what I have experienced.. my teacher/advisor has been phenomenal and supportive through the process, but corporate and the people available to help with the certification process is ridiculous Not to mention calling and not even being able to leave a voicemail. Don’t let the “we will email you back within 24 hrs” fool you either. I don’t normally write these kind of reviews, but I’m done, and I’m about ready to make a drive to Dallas to see if that gets results.

I am an emergency hire art teacher who enrolled in iTeach to pursue licensure for Hawaii state. When reading the company's website, I did not find a clear description of content areas they certified. I also submitted an email as well as phone call to get this clarified whether art was covered as a content area. I did not get a response on this. I decided to go ahead and pay to get enrolled. Once I had access to the next step of the process through this paywall, I had access to a very clearly stated list of content areas covered. Art was not listed. I immediately began the process of withdrawing from the program. I was not granted a refund for my initial payment. This payment was made due to being misinformed by a website that does not give detailed information in a transparent way. Please BEWARE and ask questions, speak to someone live, ask more questions, do not stop until you are clearly and thoroughly informed at every step of the way before deciding whether to pursue your certification through this program. And I highly recommend iTeach to make their program requirements/ content areas more transparent up front as well as be more communicative with the process so that people can make a fully informed decision about enrolling in your program as well as consider changing your refund policy to allow refunds of initial payment made within 1 week of enrollment.
