Hey guys, I wanted to give a great rec. on here for the Boston Language Institute, Boston, Massachusetts. I just completed their month long intensive TEFL program. I can honestly say it was one of the most academically, and personally, rewarding experiences of my life. I learned so much and met wonderful people. I know that it's not in Spain, but if you are looking for a course over here in the States, this one is incredible. Great instructors, wonderful location, interesting, fun, and instructive classes, practice on real people from day three on, a caring environment, connections, a free T shirt! I can't say enough. It was definitely one of the best things I almost never did. Besos, Joy

Cool Joy!!!

Hey, smack me if this question is out of line but them there Boston schools tend to be P-R-I-C-E-Y.

Do you mind telling us how much that intensive costs at Boston Language Institute???

Would be good to be able to compare to other TEFL programs both here in Spain and abroad.

Saludos,

Yikers!!! I was afraid of that Eeker

One EXPENSIVE T-shirt alright.

With Madrid based TEFL courses running between $900 and $1,500, gonna have to leave it Eeker

Remeber, the TEFL courses are confidence builders more than anything and it realy does not matter where (or even if) you get that piece of paper.

As far as I have heard, 99% of the employers here will never ask where you did your TEFL training.

Wow 3 years old and the link is still current.
It answered the question I had as well. TOEFL vs TEFL what's the difference.

Anyways does anyone know of TEFL prep exams? My main worry is the phonic chart, that chart of weird symbols that is supposed to help you with pronoucation.
