Program Reviews

I attended The Language House as a way to move to Prague. Little did I know it would be one of the best experiences of my life. It was a tough course, but also enjoyable and an amazing learning experience. I researched several TEFL courses, but The Language House offered more actual teaching experience and more support to students than any other. Because of this experience, I had a job starting the week after graduation. If you’re on the fence, let me assure you, The Language House is the school you want to choose. Whether you plan on living in Prague or teaching somewhere else in the world, they will support you to the fullest!

I’d worked as an English teacher in Ukraine but I always wanted to teach foreign students. I made the decision to get an international certificate which lets me work with foreigners. It was hard to choose a school among those in different parts of Europe. Nevertheless, The Language House TEFL is always at the top of the list. After reading all the reviews, I made my choice and I still think it was one of the best decisions in my life. Everything make the school perfect - the enthusiastic, highly-professional staff, the smartly-designed course, the great opportunity to apply what you’ve picked up in the day sessions to your evening classes and practise. What I appreciate even more is the constant support from the staff in everything, I mean from getting visas to job fairs. And you always be a part of the family! The Language House gives you the sense of being a family member with all types of assistance and family parties! Don’t hesitate to join the incredible family and enjoy the vibe of Prague as well.

The Language House curriculum is thorough, well-structured, and goes above and beyond in terms of preparing you to teach English. The instruction is comprehensive, engaging, and very hands-on; you get plenty of practice teaching so that by the time you're applying to jobs, you feel more than ready to start work. Before leaving the U.S., I was skeptical that I could master a new skill in just one month, but the Language House really goes the extra mile to make sure every student succeeds. I graduated from the program with so much more than just a certificate - I grew in confidence, met some amazing people, and accumulated a lot of useful knowledge about navigating life in Prague. I would highly recommend the Language House to anyone who wants to challenge themselves and move abroad.

This was an intense and very educational TEFL course. I was dabbling inteaching before I took it, and after graduating I felt that teaching was a whole different world. It's intense, but it's all for a reason. You learn everything you need to start teaching abroad, there is assistance for everything you may need, and of course, practice lessons to actually put the things you're learning into practice! The trainers are all extremely knowledgeable and will be there to support you. I definitely recommend it!

The Language House Prague is a great way to become proficient in TEFL. It is a rigorous program, but the instructors are great: passionate and knowledgeable about the subject and devoted to their students' success. They are really gifted at conveying abstract/complicated ideas--and there is a lot of humor to balance the hard work.

The coursework is set up clearly, and the students have the opportunity to teach several classes to pupils at varying levels, so there is real applicability and practice in what you are learning.

I liked that there was a wide range of ages in the class and found a lot of support and camaraderie with my classmates.

I highly recommend The Language House Prague to anyone interested in learning how to teach English as a second language.

I am so glad I got my TEFL and YLT certificates from TLH. From start to finish, the course was thoughtfully structured, engaging, and incredibly informative. The course material was clear, well-organized, and full of strategies and approaches that I could immediately see myself using in a real classroom. They also have an incredible in-house visa service if you're interested in staying in Prague long-term. Beyond that, TLH boasts a vibrant community of teachers and professionals that will support you as you navigate your time abroad. I highly recommend.

I completed this program three years ago, and to this day I am still incredibly grateful for everything this school offered. I was able to settle in to life abroad, get a job, and find a place to live all within the span of one month thanks to everybody at this school. The training set me up for all the success as a teacher, and while I don't teach anymore I still live in Prague, have a great relationship with the school staff and also still have many friends from TLH, not just my own course but others too. You will only be disappointed if you don't decide to do this program, let TLH be a part of your life.

I moved to Prague thinking I would stay for maybe a year. Once attending the program and receiving all of the support here I am 3 years later! I truly couldn’t have made the move without the school, especially the community. Since being here I’ve traveled to 18 new countries and have started a whole new way of life. I was thinking about moving to Europe and doing this for so long and I can’t express how glad I am did it! It can be scary moving someone new so having the support with housing, friends, and resources made a huge difference.

My experience with The Language House was life changing. It was my first time abroad solo, and coming from a small island in the Pacific, I was a bit reserved and skeptical about this all. However, from the start with VISA letter assistance until the end with job assistance, Chris and his lovely crew were there to answer my questions and guide me along. The course work was really easy to comprehend, and the instructors were fun and loving, especially Andrea :) With The Language...you will never go wrong if you're thinking of doing a TEFL course abroad, and or moving abroad.

I’d been thinking of taking this course for many years and TLH was always at the top of my list. Chris Westergaard, Chris Fox, Radka, Stacy, and the entire staff are all so knowledgeable and supportive! At 52, I don’t regret going to Prague and spending 4 weeks taking this intense course. We all worked hard every day, during the classes and lesson plan preparation, giving classes, getting feedback, and doing it all over the next day. It’s never too late!
