TEFL Courses & Certification in Chelyabinsk, Russia

This TEFL course has helped me understand how to become a stronger teacher and has given me the tools/resources to continually improve upon that. I have enjoyed every week of the course and hope to utilize the strong TEFL community moving into the future. After near completion, I am glad to have chosen the International TEFL School over other options as it exceeded my expectations. More than anything this course has allowed me the mindfulness of how to approach the world of teaching and provided a strong base to build on.

This was the first time I've tried online learning and i'm very pleased with my decision. I spent a while looking at different online courses and chose to enroll with ITT as every time I had a question they replied almost instantly. Even if their tutors were offline, when I left a message asking for a breakdown of the course modules I got an email back within a couple of hours. This support was really handy throughout the rest of the course and even up to today they've been helping me to get my resume together in preparation for applying for their job placement in Sichuan, China. I was a little apprehensive about standing facing a whole class of students as it seems a bit daunting, but after learning how to really prepare for a lesson, and how to get the students to do the work it's been great and I've been practicing with some family and friends without a problem. Being able to talk with experience tutors who have actually been and taught in Asia has also helped to settle my nerves a lot and now i'm really looking forward to starting :)

I was completely satisfied with the efficiency of this program. They diligently helped me throughout the entire process. This a good a program and I would definitely recommend it! They did a fantastic job!

Keep having the experience of a lifetime! Thanks for writing a review!

After graduating college I spent about 8 months as an executive assistant in my home state of Texas. But I soon became bored of office work and felt as though my life was stagnant. I decided, at this point in my life, I would take the opportunity to shake up my life a bit. I had known others who had ventured abroad to teach English so I began to do some research on companies that would help me accomplish the same adventure. I stumbled upon ITA and got in touch with Michael who was more than helpful. He answered all of my questions over the phone and all the extras I had come up with over e-mail, quick and efficiently. He really took the time to speak with me about his experience teaching abroad which helped assure any doubts I may have had in my head. After a few days I felt confident this is what I wanted to do and I knew where I wanted to go, which would not have been possible without such a helpful advisor. From there ITA helped me obtain my certification and gave me a plethora of information regarding the country I had chose, what I should expect, how to get there, how to get set up, what to bring, and most importantly how to find a job. Without ITA's help I would have been totally lost and it was reassuring to have such a great company to turn to for resources. I would highly recommend this company to anyone considering teaching abroad as they offer a comprehensive package from start to finish on an amazing journey that will change your life.
