The course

The most immersive way to get TEFL certified

Take your TEFL course face-to-face in Rome with a small group, in a real classroom with your tutors and fellow trainees. Input sessions, observed teaching practice with real adult learners, daily lesson-planning support, peer feedback and an end-of-course portfolio. Face-to-face means teaching real adult learners in person, in a real classroom, with feedback straight after every lesson. The qualification is the Trinity CertTESOL: Level 5, internationally recognised, and equivalent to the CELTA. It is the same course and syllabus as the online and blended formats: only the format changes. Read more about studying in Rome, where to stay and why students choose us.
