Fulfilling a dream !

May 21, 2021by: Giovanna Bernazzali - ItalyProgram: TEFL Certification with Via Lingua Florence!

I took this course after years of teaching. It had always been a desire, but I kept putting off taking the necessary steps towards it. I thank Via Lingua for having made my desire come true. I especially thank Tom Shandorf, Managing Director at Via Lingua International, who patiently persuaded me to challenge myself The course has been stimulating and has allowed me to implement and refurbish my skills with relevant material. It has also invited me, after many years, to step back and analyze the way I teach today and to think of ways to keep it fresh. Not last, I has allowed me to think grand and imagine a future teaching abroad I couldn't have asked for a better experience to cherish !

A fun and informative month in Florence!

Despite the coronavirus pandemic falling slap-bang in the middle of the four week course taking place in the heart of Florence, I have thoroughly enjoyed my time at Via Lingua. The classes were fun, filled with all the information and advice I could ask for and the days went by really quickly. I got on really will with all the instructors, and really enjoyed all the teaching practice I was able to absorb in my time at the school. My fellow trainees were diverse in age and background, from Australia to Canada, and the first-day induction had us well integrated and chatting away by lunch-time. The school adapted really well to the coronavirus pandemic and was still able to provide us with all the support and lessons required to complete the program and receive our certificates. The work is plentiful but engaging, and we still had the chance to explore some of the city in our down time. I would highly recommend this program to anyone looking to add a useful qualification to their resume, which if put to use can definitely allow you travel further for longer - all whilst immersing yourself one of the most architecturally and historically significant cities in Europe.

Florence, the capital of culture

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.
