To future TEFL students,
I am writing to give you a better perspective about Canterbury and teaching English in Spain, specifically teaching English in Madrid. Before I moved to Madrid I spent many hours surfing the web in order to find the perfect program to become TEFL certified. It is very difficult to decide after you have seen all the choices available at your fingertips. I chose Canterbury because of its uniqueness. You will not find another language school quite like this one.
The absolute best part of Canterbury is the guaranteed job. With Canterbury it is even possible to start teaching English in Madrid before you finish the TEFL program. This will save you a lot of stress. I had friends who worked for other companies and it took some of them almost two months to find enough work to survive.
Canterbury also provides you with free English teaching resources that are easily available for your use, at anytime. The supplemental material they provide is for all ages and they even let you make free copies. This is unheard of in many other English teaching schools in Madrid. Many times you will have to purchase your own teaching materials and pay for copies at a local print shop.
Last but not least, my favorite aspects of Canterbury are the activities they plan twice a month. I have not missed one yet! If you decide to choose Canterbury you are automatically part of the Canterbury family. These planned activities are not only fun, but they also allow you to get to know all the other teachers from all parts of the world. With Canterbury I guarantee you will make great friends and have great memories!
Good luck teaching English in Madrid, Spain.
Un saludo!
