(a) By using the Service Member acknowledges that Member is eighteen years or older.

(d) ELETEFL, LLC or third parties may, from time to time, send email messages to Member containing ads, promotions, etc., but we make no representations about the content of those messages or the goods or services offered in those messages. You agree that ELETEFL, LLC is not liable for such content or messages.

Our links to the web sites do not imply any endorsement of the material on such web sites or any association with their operators, goods or services.

Refund Policy
If for any reason Member decides to not complete the Services, Member may request a full refund at any time for a period of 30 days from purchase. A partial refund may be requested after the 30 day time window of $35, yet will be left to the discretion of ELETEFL, LLC. If Member has completed more than 25% of the course ELETEFL, LLC reserves the right to deny a refund. All refunds shall be made within 5 working days. Please note that refunds for credit card payments made in non-US$ currency may exhibit a discrepancy from the original amount, due to the exchange rate variability. ELTEFL, LLC guarantees to provide a full refund of amount owed in US$, but shall not be responsible for exchange rate discrepancies; such fees will be the sole responsibility of the Member.
Course for Credit
Upon successful completion of any of ELETEFL’s TEFL Teaching Certificate courses, you will receive a "certificate of completion" in PDF format, stating that you have completed a course consisting of the number of hours for which you have enrolled. The certificate you earn is hour-based, which makes it unlikely that it would be accepted for college credit. Likewise, if you are planning to teach in a state primary or secondary public school system in the United States, community college, or need continuing education hours in your particular field, please keep in mind that each public system may have their own unique state credentialing and continuing education requirements, which typically require that the candidate take multiple courses that are measured in college credit hours in that particular state or which require a more advanced degree. The ELETEFL TEFL Teaching Certificate will not be sufficient to meet these requirements. As always, we recommend that all prospective students check with the appropriate governmental agency, current and/or potential employers and all appropriate parties to ensure our educational programs will meet their needs prior to enrollment, as we cannot be responsible for what other programs require, and accept, as valid TEFL certification. If you do have any specific certification requirements, please don't hesitate to e-mail our staff at [email protected] to get more details about how our TESOL Certificate can meet your needs.
3. Message Board, Bulletin Board, Email, and Chat Conduct
(a) Live online conversation classroom channels, bulletin boards, email, chat systems, or other message services ("Messaging Services") are provided to you and other users as an opportunity to communicate, share and discuss ideas, and other language development activities. Member agrees to be courteous and respectful and agrees not to use the Messaging Services for chain letters, junk mail, "spamming," or solicitations. Member also agrees not to send any message or material that is unlawful, harassing, libelous, abusive, harmful, vulgar, obscene, or otherwise objectionable or that could constitute a criminal offense, give rise to civil liability, or otherwise violate any applicable law or regulation.
(b) By using the Messaging Services, you agree that ELETEFL, LLC is not responsible for any content in the Messaging Services. ELETEFL, LLC does not pre-screen or monitor the messaging content as a matter of policy.
