Via Lingua Florence

What can I say? Taking this course changed my life. It really does clear your mind when you are uncertain about becoming a teacher or not.. at least it did to me! It was very well organized and the teachers were very friendly and well prepared!- At the beginning I was worried and all living with another person and beginning this course.. but my fears went away right after my very first day! I felt welcomed and my roomie was very nice too, in fact we worked together most of the time! :) The class was fun and intense but it was broken down in projects which were good brakes to take, after learning and studying all day! Thanks to these projects, everyone got to see a different part of Florence which was very nice because then we created a power Point and shared our experiences in front of the class, so it kind of felt like we were there too! I got to see Fiesole, an old Etruscan town with an amphitheater which they still use today for concerts! At last the Teaching Part! Scary at first, but rewarding at the end! You really get the experience of teaching in front of Italian students from all different levels! I loved it very much and I am very thankful and absolutely recommend taking the course especially in Florence!

The intensive course at ViaLingua Florence was one of the most challenging yet rewarding experiences I’ve had. Not only did I acquire new skills in teaching, communication and human relations, I also regained confidence in my own self and upon completing the course my self-belief was at an all time high. The staff were very encouraging while keeping you on track with the curriculum. All with the background of the Duomo from the classroom, classmates that became friends for life, and beautiful Florence at your feet, I would recommend this course to anyone who wants to learn something new, academically and personally.

I already live abroad, in Florence Italy. However my time spent during the TEFL course gave me the opportunity to enjoy my adoptive city, encounter students from all over the world and learn new teaching methods. The staff and teachers are excellent - professional yet very kind and approachable.
