Inspiring and motivating

As an English learner, I'm delighted to attend the online course. This is a wonderful option to study comfortably from home. I really appreciate the way TtMadrid holds conferences in the online spaces because things are done as a traditional face to face class.

Teachers' dedication and enthusiasm push us to take part in dynamic games, as well as reading, writing, listening and speaking activities. Furthermore, the great variety of or student-teachers' nationalities motivate us to share our thoughts and to know more about the language.

TtMadrid tutors guide their student-teachers and learners step-by-step, giving us feedback and making it an amazing interactive course. I can't wait to join the next virtual class.

I just love it!

Quality, efficiency and frienliness

My name is Luis, I have been attending English classes at TTMadrid for a long time. These classes are part of the practices that students do as part of their training. I have been teaching for years and I can assure you that I was truly amazed by its didactic system. What caught my attention the most was to see how their teachers combine quality, efficiency, imagination and friendliness. I think they make an extraordinary team.
Now they offer their courses online supported by a perfect technical system that does not detract from the classroom. I think they have worked hard.
I have to confess that I have become addicted to his classes and I think that all his staff do an extraordinary job.
From here I send you a hug.

Student experience

Hi everyone. My name is Mary Carmen and I'm Spaniard. I've collaborated as a student in the online courses for training teachers in TtMadrid, where I've known teachers all over the world who decided to come to Madrid for their coaching. They have been very enthusiastic preparing the classes for us. I am really happy to participate in these groups.
The interaction between teachers and students has been dynamic and funny. They have used different techniques to teach us during the class.
Also, the staff are lovely people who are available to help out.
I look forward to see you.

Amazing and challenging TEFL course!

Tt Madrid provided an incredible TEFL course. The work was challenging but really important for going on to teach and they provided lots of support. The teaching practices that you do on the course are so helpful in putting into practice all the skills you’ve just learnt and you receive detailed feedback and guidance. When I was trying to decide which TEFL course to do I found it really tricky to pick but I am so glad I picked Tt as I don’t think I would have had a better experience anywhere else.

Excellent training!

Excellent training! The teaching was diverse, covering different teaching styles for groups or individuals. We had opportunities to gain practical experience. The training was well-rounded and they covered everything we could possibly need to know as a teacher here in Madrid. Extra classes are available to learn Spanish after hours. We received support with our paperwork including setting up a bank account, and registering for our TIE/NIE cards. We had lots of fun, made friends and lasting memories. I couldn't have asked for more, and our teachers were just awesome and loved by all ;D

TtMadrid, a many splendored thing!

Staff are all welcoming, friendly, cheerful, energetic and very supportive. They chat with you even on personal basis and they use different, creative teaching approach. Molly is a smart teacher, lovely, fun and a people person!

The program is well structured, organized and they listen to your suggestions. They assist you how to settle in Madrid from food, places, cultures, etc as well as visa procedures. Facilities are great; they are continuously improving it up to now.

Most of all, I had the most wonderful classmates ever and an amazing 4-week time with them! I had witnessed and experienced a wonderful sharing, support, laughter, naughtiness, team work and great friendship amongst us. Truly splendid!

Taking the TEFL course at TtMadrid is indeed an amazing experience. It was a rigorous one but all worth it especially when you try to have fun. Plus, you will definitely gain more friends even after the course.

What was your funniest moment?
When I tried to read 'hippopotamus' in my own dialect and almost everybody enjoyed it. And also how I made fun of giving praises to my classmates during our 'extra activites'. Even got an appreciation/award for it! The best part was during our graduation day, we all had a grand time celebrating it!

Great program with fantastic staff!

Taking the TEFL course with Tt Madrid was overall a great experience for me! The program is totally immersive and you learn a ton in a short period of time. Before Tt, I had never taught English before to anyone, but I left feeling confident in my teaching abilities. TtMadrid teaches you everything from how to structure a class in a way that is conducive to learning, to how to manage students who are maybe falling behind or are a little less confident in the classroom. The teachers are always there to give you positive comments as well as critiques in order to perfect your teaching style.

However, the best part of TtMadrid is most definitely the people! The teachers and staff are very engaged, and are always there to help you. They go above and beyond to make sure you are understanding the material and have everything you need to be successful. Besides in-class support, they are always hanging around during lunch (especially Molly!) or after class to check in on everyone and see how they are doing. I think this support system is what really makes the students excited to learn and to be at Tt. The program makes an effort to foster community amongst the students, planning events like a bar night during the first week and a graduation party in the last week. It has been 8 months since my TEFL course and the students in my class still regularly keep in touch. This has been an added bonus of the course, meeting new friends to help you navigate a new life abroad :)

What was the most nerve-racking moment and how did you overcome it?
Teaching your first class can be scary if you've never done it before! However, because of all the preparation TtMadrid provides in advance, and the warm spirit of the staff, you quickly get over the stage-fright and learn to feel comfortable leading a classroom. The teachers are always highlighting where you shine, and constructively critiquing you on how you could become even better. You will leave the course feeling confident in your abilities as an English teacher.

Great support, Ttmadrid

Unlike another place, Ttmadrid gave me such innovative techniques which I can easily apply in class. As an inexperienced teacher, I believe everyone needs a good support. Especially when you start something completely new to you, you need a great team to guide you step by step. I remember I could not attend in one class. Next day, the trainers gave me a private lesson. Finally, being a teacher requires a lot of confidence. At Tt, there are a lot of teaching practices with real students. So you will be more than ready to hit the teaching market. I do recommend Ttmadrid for anyone who believes they deserve the best.

What is your advice to future travelers on this program?
Being an English teacher can really help you to see the world.

TTMadrid is the way to go!

I am super happy about my experience with TTMadrid. They are very helpful every step of the way and are always available if you need help, before, during, and after the program. They equip you with the methodologies and tools to create a lesson plan using the PPP Method. I went into the program without much of an idea of how to plan and teach a class. Afterwards, I was able to create a lesson plan that I knew my students will enjoy and learn. I was able to teach with confidence! Two years later, I am still using what I have learned from TTMadrid.

In addition, TTMadrid helps you with your job search. I found my previous and current teaching jobs through TTMadrid. They set you up for success!

What is your advice to future travelers on this program?
This program prepares you to teach English ANYWHERE. If you want to travel and still be able to support yourself, I highly recommend this program. You won't regret it!
