Taking your TEFL course in Colombia is ideal if you are
hoping to teach English there after the course. The school
in Bogota is run by the British Council - a true guarantee
of quality. If you plan to stay and look for work in Colombia,
this will give you a feel of what it's like to be living
and working in there. By talking to other teachers in the
school, the local TEFL grapevine might reveal schools looking
out for teachers, or places to avoid! The CELTA course in
Bogota will be identical to the course back home, with experienced,
native English trainers, and your TEFL qualification will
be just as well respected.
Most TEFL courses you'll find here are able to offer an
add-on Spanish course - great to give you a chance of learning
or improving your language in the mornings, whilst looking
for work in the afternoons, and this will be a good way
to secure cheap host family accommodation until you get
settled in.
Whether you plan to stay and teach in Colombia, or use
it as a gateway to central or South America, the time on
the TEFL course in the amazing city of Bogota will get you
away from the daily routine back home and provide a good
balance for the intensity of the course.
