A Wonderful

I started with a dream of working and living in Madrid, Spain and I'm proud to say that Canterbury TEFL helped me achieve it. Moreover, I graduated with an internationally recognized TEFL certificate that I can use to work anywhere in the world.

Professor Dr. John Bouse does an excellent job at crafting memorable lessons, and there is a lot of hands on practice opportunities in class. I left feeling confident and prepared to teach the students that Canterbury set me up with upon course completion. The course is academically rigorous enough to integrate the studied material, but you will have plenty of time to enjoy Madrid.

Of course, this decision requires diligence, perserverence and a thirst for adventure. If you are ready to discover a new culture and try a new profession, then I would recccomend Canterbury as the community to support you along the way.

Thank you all for a phenomenal experience!

What would you improve about this program?
Some of the materials could be re-recorded and updated/modernized.

Review

Canterbury offers a well-rounded program for all seeking a TEFL to teach English as a foreign language. Canterbury Madrid provides a learning environment that adapts to all needs. Classes give good insight too what it is like to teach in Spain preparing the students well.

I chose TEFL Madrid because it was the most well-rounded program that fit all my needs. I chose to complete a TEFL certificate because I was moving to Europe and wanted to have a certified way of employment. Even though Canterbury is more focused on preparing its students for teaching in Spain, the program is still one of the best I have seen around the EU.

The program is well worth the time, effort, and money since the staff work with you to help you find job placements throughout Madrid. They have something for everyone and will even help you with job recommendations if you plan to leave Spain and teach elsewhere.

I was employed straight after my time with Canterbury in Spain working in summer camps and then finally when I moved to Austria I was employed at a private kindergarten. I work when I need to and thoroughly appreciate the skills I learned with Canterbury's program.

I would recommend this program to anyone and to contact James for more information.

Cheers!
Katie

Excellent Learning Value

In search of a career change, teaching English seem to be what would fit in naturally with me, but I didn't know how to go about it. Luckily I found the Canterbury TEFL Program online and I went on to register with them.
Our classes were quite intensive but our teacher, John, made them quite interesting and the learning value was quite evident. Prepare to focus totally on this course while you are at it. it lasts only a month, but you will be in class, studying at home or working on assignments, research papers and reports daily during this period.
When the course was over, the academy made sure to place us with clients, hence the anxiety of finding a job in a foreign land was taken care of. I enjoyed every single aspect of this course and I am happy to say that I am now a certified EFL teacher, working and living in Madrid!
John is officially my best teacher ever, he is truly the best at what he does!

Being a student a Canterbury was the experience of a lifetime :-)

The content, instructional methods, and assignments were rigorous, engaging, and worth the investment of time and money. The instructors and School Director are extremely knowledgeable, professional, helpful, and deliver honest and constructive feedback on assignments submitted and on demo lessons taught by TEFL candidates. I really bonded with my peers as well. It was fun and refreshing to learn with peers from around the world, and to improve my Spanish-speaking skills.

If you do the TEFL course in June, you are GUARANTEED a full-time EFL teaching position at a summer camp for the months of July and August. A pretty good deal!

In addition, I find Madrid to be a surprisingly affordable city to to live in, eat in, and travel around using public transportation. The school is in walking distance of various train stations and restaurants, and is located in a safe neighborhood.

I have already recommended this program to those who are serious about getting their TEFL certificate so they can teach English abroad. It was my first time living abroad, and I wouldn't trade this experience for anything in the world.

What would you improve about this program?
A SMART Board in the classroom would be nice, more computers in the study hall, and computers and printers that are modern.

A good option if you are trying to get a vivisa

I actually went through a different TEFL course last year in Madrid which was run less than professionally. I achieved top marks and qualified for employment with them and it was only then that they reversed themselves and told me they did not know how to help me get a visa to stay in Spain as a non-EU national. I therefore had to return to the US after three months and start all over again.

Canterbury was very helpful in this regard. But be advised that the smart way to get a visa is before you come to Spain in the first place. Sign up with Canterbury and they can help you while you are still in your home country.

The TEFL course itself, taught by John Bouse, was very professional and obviously is the product of many years of careful and caring teaching. He kept the material interesting and created an atmosphere in which our group bonded quickly.

Highly recommended.

Mature Local Madrid Resident

I decided to have a career change and become a Business English Coach. Through a personal acquaintance of mine, I "landed" in the Canterbury TEFL course taught by John Bouse.

I have not had formal training in years and I truly enjoyed the course. John is an amazing teacher. He makes you feel teaching is so important and fun and helps you with thousands of personal anecdotes and examples.

The course is very well structured and dynamic. You never get bored and there is plenty of hands-on experience!!! John is very experience albeit creative in his approach. For example, he made us endure two 30 minutes lessons in Tagalog (native language spoken in the Philippines) so that we could put ourselves in the shoes of beginners. What an incredible thought and it worked!

I highly recommend the Canterbury TEFL course because of its teacher. John is an inspiring character.

What would you improve about this program?
The premises and equipment was a bit tired. New furniture and more up to date equipment will make the experience more comfortable.
