What VLC/Guadalajara’s TEFL students say

The course

Did the course meet your expectations? Yes. I learned more than I thought I would.?It was very intensive and interesting. It was fun sharing experiences with the three other students in the course.

How prepared to work as a professional English teacher do you now feel? I think I’m very prepared. I'm looking forward to it. I was nervous about teaching, but I got over it during my 11 hours of student teaching.

What were the most interesting or useful things you studied? We got a lot of practical information and a lot of grammar training too. The most useful lessons were about the verb tenses — I didn’t have a clue what they were.

Was there any course content that you would like to have been covered — or covered in more depth? Not really. Given the one month time frame, I don’t think anything else could have been fit in. A lot was covered.

How would you describe VLC’s course to anyone considering it? It’s pretty intensive. If you're serious about being a TEFL teacher, this is the place to learn. It’s a demanding course, but very substantial and it offers great practice for future teachers.

Mentors

Did your mentors give you encouragement and constructive criticism? Yes. I really needed the encouragement and feedback I got plenty from both my mentors.

How useful was this feedback? Very useful. I needed them to tell me what to do differently and they did. They were happy to answer my questions.

Lindsey H., from San Antonio, Texas:
"My background is in law, and I had trained in Mexico City. I knew Guadalajara was a great city with friendly people. I chose VLC/Guadalajara because of its small class size, the good price and the good pace. Now that I've finished, I've accepted a job here at VLC. So far, I love the students — they're fun and eager to learn. The course was a refreshing change of pace and really gives a person a new perspective. Helping others learn and speak English gives me a great sense of accomplishment."
