Sarah Dohl, San Diego, USA

I loved every minute of this TEFL class. It was an unforgettable, fun and superb informative experience. The people I worked with were all incredible, and I have absolutely zero complaints. I am so sad it had to end! The observations were really helpful in showing me how lessons are taught and the different ways teachers can approach a TEFL class.I came here without any experience teaching and after this month I feel very ready and confident to teach students in a fun and effective way. The school also arranged my accommodation at a super nice shared apartment close to the school, in a great location, my roommate is a very kind person from Argentina who helps me with Spanish and with daily household essentials. Florencia and Leila were amazing coaches and made me very excited to teach.
