Review

Taking the TEFL Koh Samui course was one of the best decisions I have made thus far! The course was a great stepping stone into the rewarding career of teaching English. During the course, we were taught all the necessary tools (teaching techniques, classroom management, lesson planning, proper grammar) to be a great teacher. I cannot commend Kathryn and Rosanne enough on their efforts and overall success with this course; they really go above and beyond to ensure your time on Koh Samui and during the course is enjoyable and beneficial! I'm sure I can speak for most when I say, I do not regret taking this specific TEFL and would recommend it to anyone looking to moving into a future of teaching English!

I am currently working outside of Bangkok, and loving every second of it. Being front of classroom full of Thai children is one of the most rewarding experiences that I have had yet! The moment you step in front of them, you are immediately glorified and seen as a role model; they just fall in love with you. And in my case, I fell in love with them too. I may be teaching them, but they are teaching me as well. Through this experience, I am learning about the culture and how differently Thai children are raised and taught, a very liberating experience!

All in all, I would highly recommend taking this course if this is a path you are interested in. There may be times where it becomes exhausting and curve balls are thrown your way, but the TEFL course prepares you for certain situations. As a kindergarten teacher with 35 children, I get curve balls thrown at me regularly, but always refer back to lessons and ideas that I have learned on the course when in a bind.

Thank you Kathryn and Rosanne for all your help!
