A great course in a great city!

Jun 29, 2018

I really loved my experience at Language and training. The trainers and staff were all excellent, while the courses were rigorous, engaging and enlightening. This great experience was all set with the gorgeous backdrop that is Prague. I loved that I was able to not only learn so much, but also have time to experience the city and its charms. I could not ask for a better setting to do a course like this, and I would highly recommend it to anyone interested in travelling and teaching.

A great experience in Prague

Jun 29, 2018

I had a great time during the four week course. The trainers are very helpful and prepared. You really get the chance to learn new things realated to teching and great amount of resources to start working. You really have to work hard though and every day is a new challenge, but It feels great when you see how much you have improve at the end of the course. Prague is magical, full of beautiful places and things to do. I am very happy I decided to make the course here.

A fantastic experience at a fantastic institution

Feb 9, 2018

I had such an amazing experience here at TEFL International Prague. The course was full on (quite intense) but we wouldn't have been able to get through it without the support of our trainers and staff. I've met such great people here and I now belong to the 'TEFL International Prague family'. The school also has an abundance of resources and tools for you to use. I've settled in Prague and I have a fantastic group of students!

What would you improve about this program?
Having teaching practical lessons earlier so we don't have to finish so late (I know this can be difficult to arrange because most students come to the lessons after work).

This is an intense course in a beautiful city. The support and instruction you will receive here are incredible. The input sessions are top-notch, and the coordinator really goes the extra mile to help you navigate your life in Prague.
One of the many pluses is that you will have experience teaching young learners.
If you are looking for a TEFL course that will challenge you, and leave you feeling ready to teach by the time it's done, then this is the course for you.

Great experience

May 22, 2017

I genuinely think that getting a TEFL certificate could not have been any better at any other place. I loved the learning and teaching experiences here. There were great trainers who'd support us all the time. We learned so many different ways of approaching teaching.
The facilities were accessible and in very good conditions. The staff as well as the trainers were very kind and supportive throughout the course.
It was actually difficult to leave the school after the course finished because I enjoyed being there so much.
All in all, Langauge and Training/TEFL International Prague is a great place.
Thank you for the amazing experience.

What would you improve about this program?
The location of the school is a bit inconvenient, but other than that, everything was great.

Feedback - Gorronova

Feb 9, 2017

The course was very helpful. We had a chance to meet many good trainers.
We got a nice help and library facilities. There was a bunch of literature and we could copy whenever we wanted (it was a pity that library closed at 5 pm, I often needed something during the time after lessons).
I liked feedbacks 4 days a week. I also enjoyed a good coffee and tea service as well as friendly staff.
I only disliked 3-hour free time 4 times a week, I didn´t know what to do with this time.

Thank you very much.

What would you improve about this program?
Start later in the day, not so long breaks.

Amazing and effective experience.

Feb 7, 2017

Hi, I am Dildora. I had been looking for the appropriate TEFL course for a long time before I found this particular course. The thing which charmed me most was the instructors who are highly skilled and know the content of their subject perfectly well. Every time I attended classes, I was hooked by their professional knowledge to pass it to us. The supportive stuff was extremely helpful. They were ready to assist us and to respond to our first call. Despite the fact that the assignments were a bit challenging I managed to complete them in time because Christine and Tereza were ready to assist me with patience and calm. We were one team during that intensive month. Tears, laugh, happiness, critics, knowledge, skills, wonderful moments were the part of my life in Prague. I will never sorry that I did the course. Gained skills has totally changed my teaching strategies. Prague is a mysterious city to discover and it is in the heart of Europe which gave me a great opportunity to travel around the Europe. Our lovely Kristyna (a TEFL coordinator) really helpful with our travel maps, routes and even with tickets. TEFL International is not myth it is real. It splendid course to discover your teaching abilities.

What would you improve about this program?
More time for library research. You have a lot of books but I was not able to read and look through them all it is sad.

Questions & Answers

How is the course? Can you get work in Prague afterwards?

I have to say that the program is great, they present very quality information to prepare someone to teach English as a foreign language! The people there are very nice, the teachers are brilliant and super helpful to newbies in Prague. As for finding work, I think there are lots of options if you are a native English speaker or speak English very clearly with little accent. Also, summer is the...

Shelby Morales

Program
TEFL / TESOL Certification with Teaching Opportunity in Prague
Shelby grew up in the suburbs of Dallas, Texas. She has always been an avid student and lover of cultures but only had limited excursions abroad during her childhood to places like Mexico, Jamaica, and other Caribbean islands. Instead, she grew up experiencing travel from the backseat on long road-trips throughout the southern states of the USA. Her mother and grandmother, having traveled the world via the US Airforce, always encouraged her enthusiasm for world cultures and did their best to help her realize her travel dreams. At Southwestern University, Shelby studied world history along with psychology and politics with a hope of putting these skills to use in areas of conflict resolution and diplomacy. During her time in college she studied abroad in Istanbul, Turkey where she met many fascinating people, experienced international politics and conflict up-close, and tested the water for a life of living internationally. After graduating with high honors, Shelby looked into several different avenues to align her with her end goal of working towards international cooperation. It was during this time that she found a means to teach English in Prague and with only a month of preparation, she jumped on a plane and has been having the time of her life.

Why did you decide to get TEFL certified with TEFL International in Prague?

I was approached by United TEFL during my sophomore and senior years of college. Upon graduating, I knew that I wanted to travel either to Washington DC or internationally to pursue a future in international relations. When my attempts to find work in DC fell through, I pursued teaching as an alternative.

I looked mainly at three countries to teach in: the Czech Republic, Spain, and South Korea. I ended up choosing Prague because it was most available to me through United TEFL and because I knew the least about the region.

I feel the best way to learn about countries is to live there and experience life beyond the tourist front. Teaching English is the easiest way for me to initiate an international lifestyle. Although I didn’t foresee this path for myself, I am very happy because I’ve always been passionate about teaching and speaking educated English. Getting my certification here has been wonderfully rewarding already.

What made this teaching abroad experience unique and special?

For me this is my first step into the real world. I’ve always been a student only away from home for limited chunks of time. This experience is unique because I have the freedom of time and money that comes with living and working abroad. There’s a much greater sense of independence when you realize that you can survive in a foreign country on your own.

This trip is also special because I am learning everything from scratch. I came to Prague without any background knowledge of the history, culture, or language and I also did not know anybody else here. This experience is quite the adventure for me as I meet new people and constantly am learning new things.

I keep a blog and am helping to educate people back home about the Czech Republic. It’s very relaxing to not rush about like the tourists or carefully budget like students studying abroad. I have the time to experience Prague at my own pace and to learn the language and culture.

How has this experience impacted your future?

This experience has impacted my future in several different ways. It has always been my goal to go on the graduate school for International Relations and I have a strong interest in joining the US State Department as a Foreign Affairs Officer, but both of those paths are very competitive; very few people straight out of undergrad without international experience are accepted. As such, teaching abroad is not only a great way to build that needed international experience but it also is familiarizing me with languages and the process of learning them. I have to have foreign language skills for both paths.

In addition, getting this certification to teach has turned into a path of its own. Now that I’m working, I’m realizing that I could be very happy continuing as I am. If one or neither of my plans in the USA come to fruition, I am fully capable of staying abroad to teach. I’m very passionate about making a difference in the international community and promoting understanding and now I’m recognizing teaching as another way of doing just that.

What is one piece of advice you would offer someone considering teaching / living abroad in Prague?

Do a test run. Moving abroad is not an easy thing to do. On top of getting your certification and getting hired by a language school you have to adapt to a completely different lifestyle, orient yourself in a vast, new city, navigate without the support of language, work on getting your visa and all other necessary paperwork, and making friends so that you don’t sit in your flat alone every evening.

Before committing to the money and time of getting certified to teach, take a long vacation or study abroad focusing specifically on building skills you’d need to start somewhere new. If you go abroad with friends, focus on making new friends. It’s surprising but your ability to find friends can make or break trip.
Give yourself the chance to experience the learning curve in a temporary setting before jumping into a (traditionally) year-long commitment. Not everyone is cut out to live in a foreign culture whether it’s because of language barriers, being shy, or not liking the food – it’s best to find out how you cope well before making plans to teach.

What is your favorite travel memory?

It is difficult to choose one memory as I love traveling and have a lot of favorites. I'll pick a recent one as it's fresh in my memory.

I spent some time working on an EU project in Cyprus last year and my friends and I took a few days off to travel to Paphos to enjoy the sea and beaches. On our way back from the beach we nearly missed our bus, but the bus driver spotted us!

The driver violently stopped the bus and allowed us to get on, however not without a price. The rest of the ride was nothing short of a comedy show, with the bus driver continuously making jokes and causing the whole bus to shake with laughter.

How have you changed/grown since working for your current company?

As a TEFL program coordinator I have improved my organizational and multi-tasking skills a lot as there is a lot of tasks you have to handle at the same time to support the trainees and trainers and make the course run smoothly.

I also feel like I'm growing with every course because it consists of different people with different needs, so I have to adjust quickly to what is happening at the moment.

If you could go on any program that your company offers, which one would you choose and why?

I would definitely choose the TEFL program because it gives you everything you need as either an experienced or new English teacher. It provides you with not only methodology principles and language awareness training, but most importantly - teaching practice followed by professional feedback.

What makes your company unique? When were you especially proud of your team?

We are quite a small team of people and we also keep the TEFL groups rather smaller so everyone feels like part of the team. There is more trust, intimacy, and support because we all know we are in it together.

I am proud during every single final ceremony when our trainees receive their certificates because I know we helped another set of tens to hundreds of students to learn better English by having qualified and hard-working teachers.

What do you believe to be the biggest factor in being a successful company?

I believe it is flexibility and ability to adjust to change, awareness of your company´s strengths but also weaknesses and the knowledge of who your customers are and what their needs are.
