Below are a few things which students
have said about the course. Where email addresses are given, please
feel free to contact the students if you require more information. Dear TEFLonians! This course was fantastic! I can’t
imagine entering a classroom without all I have learnt. Received great
support throughout the course and excellent practical advice and help for job
searching. Thanks so much! Faith Zollinger from Thank you Agnes and Jon! First day job hunting in Faith Zollinger Dear Agnes, Hello. It's Fiona from the Mar. class. I have wanted to send you
a letter via post but have decided I won't get around to it for a while so I
took the quicker way and am sending you an email. I just want to thank you so much for being so wonderful to me at
school and personally. You are so intuitive and caring and SMART.
I just love the person that you are and really don't have the eloquence of
the language to express it in a fancier fashion! I miss "my room" very much. I miss the
scenery. I miss the cats. I miss the baguettes, of course! You
couldn't have done more for us - to make us feel more at home. It was
just lovely. Thank you for all of your encouragement and strength in
believing in me as a future teacher. At the moment I am considering Merci
beucoup, Danke Schon, Grazie, Obragado, Gracias. It was truly a wonderful experience.
I'll never forget it. Love Always, Fiona from NYC (April 2008) I would definitely recommend this course. The content and especially the
teaching practice is excellent and the trainers are
fantastic. It was the best course I had in my life. Ecco Staller from the ecco@belangrijk.nl (April 2008) I found the Paris TEFL Course to be a positive an enjoyable experience
on many levels. The theoretical side of the course provided us with a solid foundation
and the necessary tools with which to begin teaching. The teaching practice
was invaluable as we were able to try out the different techniques as we
learned them and gave us the opportunity to experience teaching to a variety
of levels. Our trainers were not only professional and experienced but also
very supportive throughout the entire course which added greatly to the
learning experience. Finally the lovely and comfortable surroundings in which we lived and
worked made for a very enjoyable stay and I would not hesitate recommending
this course to anyone interested in an ESL career. Narelle Howard from TEFL Paris was a great experience and
I would recommend it highly. The other students were wonderful and the
trainers extremely knowledgeable. At the end of the course I feel I have
acquired a new skill that I could take anywhere and I am confident to embark
upon a teaching career. TEFL Paris prepared me very well. Ellen Shuman from anubite@fastmail.fm This is definitely the place to be if you are tired of big structures
and looking for a friendly atmosphere to study your TEFL Course. Trainers (peter and mark) and Agnès were
really great, so kind and helpful. Christophe Desbois Farlay from Welcoming teachers and friendly atmosphere: TEFL Paris is the ideal
preparation for anyone who wants to be an EFL teacher. I would absolutely
recommend the course. The experience is a complete one, not simply focused on
the academic aspects of teaching. Teaching is part skill and part intuition -
it is an art form that one can only master through apprenticeship and
practice. Few schools offer such extensive teaching experience during the
time of learning. The ability to teach classes immediately from the first
week allows students to practice what they have learnt and understand the
technique better. The school is one of the only teacher certificate schools
in Shaun Hicks from shaun@umail.ucsb.edu I have nothing but praise for the TEFL
Paris course. The school in Tournan is a wonderful place to study and live: it’s right in the middle of a park with fruit trees and a
big sky overhead. Of course, there is also the light and dazzle of Jeff Burkholder from jeffburkholder@yahoo.com Paris TEFL is a great location and the
welcome meal before the course makes you feel at home. Locals turn up for the
English lessons eager to learn and make the teaching practice sessions very
real. You have to work hard to plan the lessons but the training staffs are
on hand to help and the interaction with the students is rewarding. Dave and
Geoff were good companions as well as teachers and it was great to be
welcomed in the family home. The students were also good company and great
fun to be with. OK to use email, comments and
pictures. I just hope you didn’t record the singing. Phil Troke from Dear Agnès, I had an interview today, and they offered
me a job right away!! I haven't accepted yet, because I have
another interview on Monday with a
school called XXXX I am so amazed... I sent out only 2 C.V. and they both
called me... I didn't even need to call them and
ask for an interview. I never had any doubts that the course
would be useful, but I honestly didn't expect to have a job Emma Kuskoff I would definitely recommend the TEFL Paris course. It was hugely beneficial to do the course in a foreign country, as it
is closer to the reality of EFL teaching. Living with the other students helped us cope with the intensity of
the course particularly at the beginning and the atmosphere was friendly and
supportive throughout. Having a variety of groups for teaching practices prepare us for
having to adapt teaching methods and style. The student’s keenness to learn and willingness to put up with trainer
teachers were very helpful for our confidence. Hannah Roberson Thank you for all the wonderful things
you've done for us. You made my stay here so happy. I am
grateful that you are now part of my family. Janet Sitzman from TEFL Paris is in a wonderful location, close enough to Oliver Edwards from I would certainly recommend the TEFL Paris course. The teaching and
course content was thorough and conscientious, the teachers were extremely
friendly and helpful and I gained a huge amount of teaching practice with
feedback on my performance- besides which the accommodation as comfortable
and facilities good. Ben Chackoo from I recommend this course very highly. I have found it to be
informative, fun and absolutely essential in giving you the confidence and
tools to teach a good English lesson. Erwin and Agnès
are exceptional teachers and always valued their inputs and felt fully
supported throughout. The house is also very nice and provided us with a comfortable home. I don’t believe I could feel more satisfied with my decision to come
here. Tom Watt from I would really recommend this
excellent TEFL course. It combined a friendly family atmosphere, fantastic
setting and extremely high quality teaching. I am very happy I came here. Joanna Gore from It truly was a great
experience. Staff went out of their way to be helpful and to help us to
adjust to life in Better then I could even have
hoped for. Adam Burnett from |
