Well worth it!

Taking the TEFL course through CIEE was a great overall experience. I worked a full-time 40+ hr a week job while taking the course and did not feel at all that the time commitment was out of hand, so long as you plan ahead and make sure to give yourself the necessary time to be successful, you will be!

The content of the course was very informative as well, while the TEFL course has its limits on how well it can prepare you for in-class instruction, it provides an incredible foundation on which you can build a successful teaching career not only in your host country but beyond as you/we progress in our journeys to becoming teachers.
