Intensive training

Be prepared to put the rest of your life on hold and to dedicate yourself solely to the course- it is an intensive course with a great workload, especially in week 3 (two assignments on top of preparing for and giving lessons, input sessions in the mornings etc). That said, I can only recommend the course. Although I had had a little teaching experience beforehand, I found the course very rewarding- learning much from both the input sessions as well as from observing my fellow trainees teach and also from their and the tutors`feedback on my teaching. My fellow trainees came from all over the world and getting to know each other was a great experience. The tutors were supportive and the input sessions ( e.g. on learning styles, different teaching approaches, phonology, grammar etc) were well-prepared and fun.
