” I moved to Florence to study at The Learning Center of Tuscany to obtain my TEFL certificate. What I left with was a profound understanding and mastery of the English Language. The lessons I learned at the Learning Center not only helped me find work as a teacher, but pushed me to the next level of superior teaching. I would recommend The Learning Center as an excellent school to anyone wants teaching abroad, looking to become an English Language Teacher or for current English Language Teachers as a way to master their craft. ”

I learnt more about myself as a public speaker and a classroom manager here than in four years of college. The classroom experience gained here is more than in any university.
I feel ready to teach my own class. I have grown in so many ways. I feel that I have become more organized in my presentation which is good because the students will benefit from that.
I believe I have acquired a deeper respect for teachers and myself. I have a deeper understanding of the process necessary to conduct an informative enjoyable class. The learning curve was quite remarkable and I believe that I can independently plan and execute a lesson.

“I completely recommend TEFL International – great course, great people, and an amazing experience!
