Description

Experience life in Guatemala as a TEFL certified English teacher!

TEFL Institute's onsite course in La Antigua, Guatemala is internationally accredited, intensive 4-week program, encompassing 130 hours of classroom instruction, as well as 20 hours of student teaching.

The TEFL course is given in La Antigua, Guatemala, a city situated at 1,500 meters (5,000 feet) above sea level in the central highlands of Guatemala in the department of Sacatepequez. It is the most popular destination in the country for both tourists and Guatemalans alike, and is famous for its well preserved colonial architecture and spectacular ruins - so much so that the entire city has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Antigua's Central Plaza is the heart of the city, and the center bustles with locals and international visitors year round. La Antigua is the first stop for everyone visiting Guatemala and it's the perfect launching point for trips to the Lake Atitlan, Tikal, the jungle, and Pacific coast, all of which are just a few hours away.

This extensive 4-week/150-hour program includes 100 hours of classroom instruction and 25 hours of practical teaching and observation accompanied by an additional 25 hours of required self-study and research outside of the classroom. Both thorough and fun, the TEFL program provides participants with comprehensive training in a professional and supportive environment.
