Fun, Friendly, and Valuable

I have always loved traveling and I have always wanted to live in Europe. I am a certified teacher with 30 years in the classroom who decided to change her path and become a freelance English teacher. Tefl certification in Prague was the perfect answer for me. After looking into a lot of programs, I settled on The Language House. The program is very entertaining and engaging with lively lessons that I found very valuable. Don't let the fun fool you as an experienced teacher I recognized the sound methodology behind the instruction at The Langauge House. What I found the most valuable was all the teaching practice throughout the course and the daily feedback from instructors and students. An unexpected treat, is all the friends I made during the course and all the support and friendships that continue now that the course is completed. So, if you are looking for a new adventure or a new career, check out The Langauge House.

What would you improve about this program?
I think there should be practice teaching made available to those taking The Young Learners part of the program.

Much more than just a certificate

8 months after having taken the course and having spoken to teachers who took other courses, I can highly recommend The Language House. Not only have I learnt how to be the best teacher I can be but I've also been introduced and included in the community of the past and present Language House TEFLers. This means making loads of friends easily and being able to make the absolute most out of this incredible and very fun city. It's not only a certificate, long after the course ends you still get the benefits with organised social events and support if you need it!

Choosing the Language House meant a way into Prague. They help with pretty much anything you could need help with, teaching and non teaching related. Arriving was so simple with the airport transfer and student accommodation being organised by the school and it meant that I could enjoy the Prague experience from day 1! The course was intense but so much fun with the teachers ensuring all the topics covered are delivered in a way that you want to be learning them. The intensity of it just means that you're getting the absolute most out of the month long course and can be super confident when landing your first job.

TEFL Certification Program from TLH Prague.

My experience with TLH Prague was a very positive one. The staff are very kind and attentive, as well as knowledgable about TEFL materials. The material itself is not that difficult, but the condensed nature of the course along with their requirements of teaching real classes, as well as seeking out private students in order to receive your certificate makes for a stressful experience. That being said, it's no worse than studying for finals so if you use proper time management you'll be fine. I highly recommend TLH if you're looking to jump into a new and fun line of work in a new country.

THE TEFL program to take

The Language House in Prague offers an outstanding training program. You take 2 to 3 classes everyday and start teaching full 45 minute classes from the second week on. At the end of the program my group had to speak with the creditor for the Language House and it was clear that we all felt we had gained a significant amount of confidence in our ability to teach from our time here. It can be difficult to find an apartment, search for a job, and start working on your visa while you're still in class, but anyone who is proactive can accomplish these things without too much of a problem. And of course there is plenty of help from the staff in dealing with all of these things. A few people in my course even found jobs before they had graduated from the program. It's an all around great course and I would recommend it to anyone looking to teach abroad.

BEST TEFL program!!

I chose to get my certification at The Language House TEFL in Prague, Czech Republic. I highly recommend this pro! gram. While there are many programs available this course includes additional services that others do not. These services include; CV assistance, job assistance, housing, and Visa assistance. They prepared me to teach English but they also prepared me to live in Prague. Skills that I consider highly valuable.

My decision to move abroad was both a professional and personal decision, as I'm sure it is for others. I had many questions and concerns. I felt that the Language House was both fully informative and supportive of all that I was going through. They still are. The Language House is also more than a school but a community. Something that I think any Expat would appreciate.

What would you improve about this program?
The school is lacking in certain amenities like enough computers/printers for everyone. However, the is very similar to the conditions everywhere in Prague. So I found that hard to switch to but in the end it enabled me to be a better teacher without the use of technology.

Best TEFL Program in Prague

I took The Language House TEFL course in February 2012. TLH is in a great location in the center of Prague. I used the accommodation given by TLH during the course. It was even better than I expected- I had a big flat to myself with all the necessities and weekly cleaning. There were only 6 people on my course so we received a lot of attention from the trainers. We had 7 different observers/teachers/trainers. The course itself included information about lesson planning, teaching methodology, phonetics, and classroom management. The staff presented this information in the most interesting/fun way possible. We then put these new techniques into practice during our teaching training. You teach 12 45-minute lesson and 2 1-hour private lessons to real Czech students. This teaching practice has made me feel confident in teaching English at any level. Job assistance during AND after the course was great. I received help with my CV, cover letter, and interview tips. The best part about TLH is its strong alumni community. Graduates are connected all over the world and it is a great place to get advice about TEFL or just life abroad. I would recommend The Language House Prague to anyone interested in having fun while getting their TEFL certificate.

Absolute best program in Prague

My wife and I took the course in August of 2009. The staff was great. They gave great feedback and really helped us all get acclimated with living abroad. The course provides a ton of hands-on teaching of real Czech students in a classroom setting.

The Language House is worth every penny and more!

Two thumbs up for TLH TEFL - graduate of 2007, still in Prague

The staff is well trained, knowledgeable and gives you all the support you need as a TEFL teacher. I came to the program as an experienced teacher, but TEFLing is a whole new ball of wax. I felt ready to teach English grammar even though I never had before. I got a visa, a job and a nice flat in no time. It's not always an easy city to live in, with all the red-tape and sullen faces, but once you break through the barriers, Prague is an easy and safe city to live in. Just be sure to bring enough money with you to start off with! TLH TEFL has always been there for me whenever I am in need. It's a great way to meet the locals and the expat crowd, too.

Questions & Answers

Hello! Yes, it is possible :) While it maybe slightly more difficult to find a job, there are definitely opportunities for you! The Language House is great about connecting their students with jobs around Prague.

I have been able to live comfortably and travel with my income.

Unfortunately, TEFL certification is not particularly useful in the States. Most schools and companies here don't seem to understand what it is. ESL companies here tend to look for DELTA certification or a teaching license with ESL credential for their teaching staff. However, skills that you acquire during this program (and teaching abroad) are very helpful in persuing teaching at home.

found it very easy to get a job in Prague after the TEFL at the Language House. I had three interviews the first week after the course and I got all three jobs. Most of my friends had a similar experience. Prague has so many language schools and they are usually hiring. This was in mid April. An even better time to look for jobs is in late August/early September, or in January when the terms start...
