The world’s leading Teach English as a Foreign Language course provider. The TEFL Academy helps students fulfil their dreams of getting paid to travel while teaching English abroad and online.
We’re thrilled to be working with an agency that delivered from the word go. The content and ads have increased our brand awareness and sales which is exactly what we were looking for.
Managing Director, The TEFL Academy
The TEFL Academy approached Digital Firefly with the desire to develop ongoing strategies and content to increase engagement across all social channels and improve website conversions (course bookings) from social media.

Content creation
Social media ads
During the first week taking over their social media content management in 2018 our posts on Instagram had become the Academy’s most engaged with ever, and achieved the most link clicks of the previous two years.
Since then we have continued to grow their channels, engage their audiences and increase conversions. Check out some key stats for 2020 below.
2 million
People engaged across all channels in 2020. An increase of 73% from 2019.
28 million
People reached across all channels in 2020. An increase of 69% from 2019.
105,000
Total link clicks to the TTA website in 2020. Increase of 9% from 2019.
54%
Increase in acquisition to 105,000 from 2019.
This work began with a strategy session designed to ascertain The TEFL Academy’s business, marketing and social media objectives, to gain a better understanding of their target customers and establish their tone of voice.
Using this we created insight based customer personas and developed a comprehensive social media strategy with realistic key performance indicators. We also held a creative content session to agree key content themes and types, enabling us to create an ongoing content calendar to meet the Academy’s objectives and the needs of its students.
Working with the Academy we continue to create ongoing organic content and paid Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and LinkedIn advertising campaigns, constantly seeking new creative opportunities, learning from insights and building a passionate community of teachers.
