Paula Holden
It was very useful and inspiring. I have got lots of ideas now and, having not planned to do TEFL immediately, found myself wanting to book a flight straight away!
Jenny Dixon
Very good! The tutor was very helpful, relaxed and informal. I really felt I could relax and enjoy the course whilst gaining a lot of experience and knowledge.
The course was good. A nice mix of practice and theory!
Claire Whitfield
I found the trainer very approachable and since she had experience of teaching abroad herself she was able to answer many of my questions. I was impressed with her training and thought the course was useful.
I enjoyed preparing and teaching the lessons and learning about different techniques.
