Customer Feedback

---

The premises were lovely and situated very centrally in Cheletenham (which was still affected by the floods so several resturants were shut because their water supply had been cut off). There was also a nice buzz about the place and, whilst on a taster day we did not have trainers as such, the staff were quite helpful on the day.

Course Description

---

This is probably the closest you will get to a CertTESOL course without actually attending one. It's perfect if you haven't yet decided whether to pursue a career in TEFL. The idea is to give you plenty of detailed information on TEFL, teaching opportunities worldwide, and making applications for courses.

Schedule

10:30 School tour and lesson observation (with a question sheet to fill out), meeting with the tutor to discuss the lesson

LUNCH

13:30 - 15:00 Planning a lesson together with the tutor

15:15 - 16:15 Teaching a lesson to a student with help from the tutor. Feedback

By the end of the Taster Day, you should have a better idea of whether teaching English could be the profession for you. The fee for the Taster Day is £75. If you subsequently decide to go on the CertTESOL course in Cheltenham, you will receive a £50 discount.

School Details - Cheltenham

---

The school was opened in 1990 and since then has established a strong reputation for high quality language training combined with an extremely personal service, paying particular attention to the needs of all clients.

The school is located in two beautiful, neighbouring Regency buildings in the town centre.

The main school is a medium-sized school offering the ideal combination of quality teaching and a high degree of personal contact with all our students. It is a beautiful Regency villa built in 1796. Located just 30 metres from the High Street, it is superbly positioned for access to buses, shops, restaurants and pubs. This building is used for all adult group courses and for teacher training.

The Business and Professional Language Training Centre was opened in 1998 to better meet the needs of our many business and professional clients. Here you can meet business people from all over the world, including England, enjoy a training programme designed to meet your needs and at the same time, still enjoy all the extra facilities offered by the main school next door.

In spite of its central position, you could easily be forgiven for thinking that the school is out of the town centre, thanks to its beautiful garden and peaceful location.

The high standards of our courses, our teaching staff, our accommodation services and our extra-curricular activities have all been officially and objectively recognised by external bodies.

The school is accredited by the British Council for the teaching of English as a Foreign Language to Adults and is accredited under the British Government's "Investor in People" scheme.
