Customer Feedback
Great family atmosphere in the school. Vibrant. Each trainer was professional and really knew their stuff.
-Catherine Brant-
The school had excellent facilities (a good library and great computer facilities) and all the staff were very friendly. The trainers were great too - friendly and approachable and always ready to give constructive advice and guidance. The course was very well organised and there were some extremely useful input sessions.
-Fiona Freeman-
The school was a very open, honest friendly place. The atmosphere was very welcoming and the trainers were extremely helpful.
The course was very inspirational, motivating and enjoyable.
-Stacey Sheppard-
It was brilliant. The trainers were helpful and enthusiastic, must be hard for them to keep it fresh having a new course starting every month but they did a really good job. hard work but i enjoyed the work more than i thought i would.

Course Description
FFirst thing to know - this is NOT a certificate course. It really is just one day to find out if you might be cut out for Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL). If you subsequently choose to apply for the Cambridge CELTA at the Bournemouth school, and you're accepted on a course, you will get £55 back.
Here is what will happen during the day:
9:00 - 9:30 - Ice Breakers & Warmers
Get to know each other by using some popular classroom activities. You will be able to use these activities in your own teaching later on in the day.
9:30 - 10.00 - Foreign Language Lesson
Put yourself in a student's shoes and learn useful teaching techniques.
10.00 - 10.30 - Classroom Management
