TEFL is a BLAST!!!!!!
February 14, 2026by: Florence Skinner - United StatesProgram: TEFL/TESOL Costa Rica with Job Placement Guarantee!
I did the TEFL course through Maximo Nivel in January 2026, and it was incredible!! My TEFL instructor was very kind and attentive and provided lots of good feedback which resulted in me feeling extremely prepared for my future EFL teaching career! Maximo is great at providing resources while you are with them, and equally as good at helping you with your next steps. You should definitely choose Maximo Nivel to do your TEFL course!! You will not regret it!!!
TEFL Course in Quepos with Lewis
February 14, 2026by: George Forrester - United KingdomProgram: TEFL/TESOL Costa Rica with Job Placement Guarantee!
I loved the TEFL course in Maximo Nivel, Quepos, I want to shout out all the staff here; Lewis, Marinela, Karen, Viviana, Roger and more! They are attentive, kind, and all sharing of the same mindset centred around delivering top quality English (ESOL) and Spanish education to the students here.
Best course I have taken, and I've taken more than one.
February 14, 2026by: Dakota Burwell - United StatesProgram: TEFL/TESOL Costa Rica with Job Placement Guarantee!
This TEFL course was intensive and difficult at times, but manageable. I got lots of valuable insight into the teaching philosophy of Maximo Nivel, what is expected of teachers working for the institute, and how those teachers are evaluated. I have gained a lot of respect for the teachers who go through this course. It was not easy, and I can understand why some teachers have not succeeded in passing this course. This course was a great experience in practical teaching techniques. It surpassed my original TEFL course I took eight years ago in this regard. This was a fun, educational, and rigorous course that I would absolutely recommend to others interested in becoming teachers of English as a second language.

I've always wanted to travel and see the world, but fear of the unknown kept me back and I slowly began to settle into a stable but monotonous job. Near the end of 2015, I realised that if I did not take action I could very likely live my whole life without ever having traveled abroad. After reading many motivational books and considering the pros and cons of my big decision over and over again, I finally decided to take a leap of faith and signed up for the TEFL training course, with the plan to work abroad immediately after completing the course.

I applied for this program because I wanted the opportunity to live in a different country, to be able to work there, and experience a new culture. I knew also that it would give me new skills and potentially lead to a new career in a rewarding profession.
