The school was very professional and helpful and the tutors knowledgeable and responsive.

Susan Mallett


I am absolutely delighted with my success on this course and, although it was very challenging, I very much enjoyed studying for it.Having worked in NVQ training in the UK I have experience of providing training materials. I am very impressed with the quality and content of your course not to mention the professionalism of your service and I won\'t hesitate to recommend it to others.

Katie Wilson


Now that I\'ve had some time to go through your comments and suggestions, I\'d just like to say a big thank you for all of your help and support over the past few months. I\'m delighted to have completed my course, and am looking forward to \"pastures new\" when I start teaching my first class next week.

I have to say that I\'ve been very pleased with the quality of service and level of support that I have received from everyone at Global English. I can\'t thank you enough for your prompt answers to my queries, helpful suggestions and comments, and also your book recommendations. You have helped me to grow as a teacher, and I have some useful teaching resources for future use.
