Customer Feedback
The course was excellent, really enjoyed it and would recommend it to anyone wanting to do a TEFL.
The trainer was excellent. I thought he really knew his stuff and he was incredibly motivating, however what I liked most was the interactivity. I loved the way that we were taught a piece of knowledge and were then taught how we'd been taught that bit of knowledge. Very clever and engaging.

I think it covers a lot of subjets in a very reduced period of time, so it's very intense. I was very happy that we were shown many techniques to help us in the classroom.
Maria Dolores Schenone
I thought the location was good. It was comfortable and easily accessible. The Course trainer was excellent. She was very professional and personable with a really in depth knowledge of her subject. I found the course to be completely absorbing, full of really useful information and lots of fun.
I found the pace to be manageable and in the end it flew by. I was amazed at how much I'd learnt in such a short time. I felt that everyone on the course got as much out of it as one another and no one was left out. The information given was clear and concise and was easily put into context. I certainly feel that I got my money's worth!
What I enjoyed most about the course was the high level of interaction through discussion and roleplay. This led to a very relaxed atmosphere which to me is so condusive to learning.
