Thank you.

Our TEFL certificate program is accepted internationally and has been characterized as one of the most thorough, intensive and beneficial TEFL programs available. We actually guarantee that our trainees will be completely prepared to effectively teach EFL/ESL on their own once they complete our course.

I’ve been reading your website with interest, all sounds very good! I do have one question though.

Which board accredits this course? Is it a CELTA course?

Thanks,

Rebecca

Thank you for your inquiry. Our TEFL course is intensive and covers 160 hours of training over 4 weeks. The course will enable you to teach English as a second or foreign language here in Costa Rica or anywhere in the world. If you would like to speak to someone over the phone more in depth about your specific situation we will be in the office next week between 12:00pm and 6:30pm (Costa Rican Time) and our number is: +506-2656-2362.

During the course you will learn a variety of teaching methodologies and techniques and teach at least 8 hours of classes while being observed by your TEFL trainers and peers. You will not teach in a local school, rather the local students come to our facility to receive free English classes. After each teaching session, trainees receive feedback on their teaching performance. You will also learn to create effective lesson plans, communicative activities for every level and learn about learning styles and multiple intelligences.

In addition, you will learn to create activities in the four skill areas (listening, reading, writing and speaking). You will also create a portfolio to be used both in your future classroom and in the interview process. We also aid in job placement and the interview process which we will begin during the course. Most of our applicants have been placed in local language schools in the central valley. Our job placement assistance does not end when you graduate, you can contact us in the future and we will help you in the necessary steps.

Please feel free contact our past graduates at: http://costaricatefl.com/more-about-tefl-and-the-school/testimonials/ or on facebook, Costa Rica TEFL.

Please let us know if you have any further questions and if you would like us to send you an application.

Thanks,
