Wow was I ever impressed by this TEFL course! I absolutely loved my time in Prague, and although I definitely feel prepared from just the one month of study, I wish it had been longer! Any questions I had were answered promptly and in detail, and everything from the accommodation to the course content was handled so well. All that being said, don’t expect to have a laid back experience, it was as the website promised it would be; intense and challenging!

It was a full month but if you try hard, and put your mind to it, it’s pretty hard to fail!

I would for sure recommend this course for anyone hoping to start a life teaching English, whether you’re looking for a career, a short term change, or just a chance to travel!

As Kevin I just graduated from TEFL worldwide Prague. It was a great experience and due to the support received from the staff, a great preparation for my future teaching life.

Don’t underestimate the load of work you have to deal with and expect a lot of input. 4 weeks didn’t seem to be a lot of time to me, but I’m surprised how much we’ve learned in that – intense! – time.

The friendly and helpful staff will have an answer for every question you might have and the teaching staff has the experience to prepare you for any situation, from one-to-one teaching, over business english classes and working in language schools. I don’t have the feeling that I will have a lot of trouble with unexpected situations as they were able to tell out their own experience what could happen and how you, as the teacher, should react.

All in all a great experience I would recommend to anybody who wants to teach English.

Hm…yeah, the copy machine. No need for many words, we just had a troubled relationship.

Although I had been teaching EFL for quite a long time, I had never thought it was long enough to ensure what I considered a proper qualification. Experience can certainly build confidence in terms of classroom management, for instance, but being a complete teacher demands a lot more. It was this much more I was seeking when I decided to take the TEFL course in Prague.

I was aware that it was not going to be an easy challenge to face. I had not realized it was also going to be so enjoyable, though. There was plenty of support, encouragement and guidance throughout the course. The fact that soon we were putting into practice what we had been taught really helped us gain confidence in what we were doing. In addition, all the constant feedback we got from our tutors literally helped us learn from our mistakes. Moreover, there was always a friendly atmosphere in the classrooms with the tutors, during our own lessons with the Czech students, and all around the school itself. It was hard work but worth all the investment.

Today I feel I am a different English teacher. Combining my previous experience with the contents of the TEFL course has definitely made me a better professional. Now I am reflecting more often on my English teaching and thus seeing more clearly what can be done for further improvements.

The TEFL Worldwide Prague experience is highly recommendable. And not only for the course itself but also for all the preparation support we get before traveling to Prague and the frequent assistance from the school afterwards, when we are looking forward to being hired. I did find what I was seeking.

My name is Tucker Duclos and I completed the March 2013 TEFL Worldwide course. When I arrived in March, I had no idea what to expect, but I was ultimately very impressed with the legitimacy of it all. Dan and Kenny take their job very seriously and are committed to graduating well-trained teachers who are passionate and hardworking. I found employment at a Kindergarten before I even graduated. The fact is that the ability to teach English as a second language is very much in demand here in Prague, as well as the rest of the world. Not only does the course prepare you effectively for the real world, but their Job placement works hard to cater to your personal needs. During the course you will be with other hopeful teachers from all over the world and make lifelong friends. Prague is an amazing city, located right in the heart of Central Europe. Take the course and be prepared for an intense four weeks that is both challenging and rewarding on so many levels. I can’t thank everyone from the TEFL Worldwide community enough for the life I live today.

i took the TEFL Pragu a while back, but it was definitely worth it. english is not my first language and i needed a certificate to be able to teach at a language school – a tangent to my professional career which wasn’t going according to my expectations back then.

the course prepared me very well for what was to be my job as an english teacher – good structured lesson planning was the thing i needed the most, since i am not coming from a teacher background by a long shot. hands on experience throughout the course is excellent – you start out slow and easy and work up towards full class under your supervision.

the flow works out really well – by the end of the course you teach a class and can transition really smoothly into a job with a language school itself.

i got into the course not because i wanted a nice month of taking it easy in prague – i wanted to be able to pick up a job and start teaching – and the course gave me just that.

(plus a ton of facebook friends all over the world by now 😀 )

I just graduated from TEFL Worldwide Prague, and it was great. Everything from the experience of living in a house with other students , to the class itself was an awesome experience. The instructors were great, and the content was fun to learn. The staff was very helpful as well. They do support you a lot with finding a job and also a place to live. Everyone in the class became good friends throughout the month, and it made the class a lot more fun to attend. But don’t mistake fun for easy. The class is very intense when it comes to work load. Every day you are either in class for 8 hours or you are preparing your lessons to teach. The only drawbacks to TEFL Prague are the godforsaken copy machine that jams (which I’m sure will be fixed soon enough) and the amount of beer you consume while staying in Prague.

You fall in love with Prague while being here. I couldn’t recommend the course more.

TEFL WorldWidePrague was an amazing experience. The instructors Kenny and Dan are extremely hands on and very involved with your training. At TEFL you have an indepth 120 hours of training and about 10 hours of hands on practice teaching. Kenny, Dan and Andrea are there to provide constant assistance with your lesson planning and give you constructive feedback on the success of your lessons. The office staff at the school are also amazing. Justin was there to constantly answer any questions I had before the trip and anything pertaining to Prague. Renata was so helpful in helping us understand how to navigate the metro system or even translating information for us from Czech. All of the office staff was extremely willing to help in whatever ways possible. They made the school a fun and warm environment and made sure that any questions you had were answered. They were also very efficient in helping us find jobs. Although TEFL does not provide job placement, they do an amazing job of providing job assistance. Renata was constantly sending out emails with new job listings, and Justin was always there to help review a CV or cover letter, which was extremely useful. Aside from job assistance they also helped me and 3 other girls with housing assistance. Justin does an amazing job of staying in contact with past graduates and he was always informing us of flat vacancies, which is exactly how we got our current flat. TEFL was an amazing experience and I think the staff at TEFLWorldWidePrague are the people to thank for that. I loved my experience there and the warm family environment that they provided and would recommend anyone interested in this once and a lifetime opportunity to seize it and apply. Your European adventure is waiting for you and it starts at TEFLWorldWidePrague!

I took the TEFL course this year and I definitely found it very useful and rewarding.

It is worth it to attend it for someone who really wants to learn how to teach and wants to have a great experience in contact with these people.

I am very glad to have meeting all these people, the instructors, the staff, my colleagues and living in Prague.

It is for sure an intense and hard course, but you will find it very worth it. Once you enter the school without any notions about teaching, you’ ll go out with the abilities to cope with the problems of teaching and being able to manage classes of different levels.

Kenny and Dan, the instructors, are very professional and give you a whole range of tools and techniques about teaching. They are always available when you have concerns or doubts about every kind of issues.

They are always there for you and I really thank them for their availability and presence in everything.

Also the whole the staff, in particular Justin and Renata are wonderful people and know how to do their job. They are available whenever you need, give you advise and help for job hunting.

I definitely recommend the TEFL course to everyone who wants to enter the teaching world because you will be taught by experts and professionals, and for sure, you will not have regrets afterwards.

My experience with TEFL Worldwide Prague was honestly everything I expected and more. I knew the course would be pretty intense and I would be teaching the second day of the course, so mentally I pretty prepared, but the course was packed! There was no stone left unturned. The instructors knew their craft inside and out and were able to completely answer any and all questions asked when it came to teaching English as a second language. Although it was a lot of work, it clearly paid off because now I am working full time in Prague, living with some great friends that I met through the TEFL course and I really couldn’t be happier. This is ALL thanks to TEFL Worldwide Prague.

One of the truly best things about TEFL Worldwide Prague is the job placement. Yes, it does comes down to you as the individual when it comes to the interview and such in order to be hired for a position, but TEFL Worldwide Prague would feed me advertisements for jobs non-stop until I was able to find the perfect job. Now, I am teaching at a great elementary school and look forward to my job everyday. If you are looking for a serious but well worth it class, you should definitely look into TEFL Worldwide Prague.

After completing the TEFL course at TEFL Worldwide (March-April 2012) I am extremely happy with my decision to take the course here. It was definitely not stress-free but it was fun, challenging and worth every penny.

I chose TEFL Worldwide because it was clear that their students kept in touch with the school and many were available to contact via email and Facebook. Being able to contact past students made the choice much easier.

The staff at the school is amazing. Everyone is incredibly friendly and helpful and will not hesitate to offer assistance (even beyond course-related issues). The teacher trainers are incredible – they obviously enjoy what they do and they do a great job.

The accommodations are nice and are close to the school and are reasonably priced. The school’s location at Vysočanská is nice – not in a touristy area, but not off the beaten path. The metro/bus/tram station is so close that all of Prague is a short ride away.

I highly recommend TEFL Worldwide to anyone planning on getting their TEFL certification – you wont regret it.
