TEFL TESOL Courses in Granada

Granada is an historical and magical city in which to study your tefl/tesol course. Named by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site, Granada is home to the Alhambra Palace, spain’s most visited attraction. Take a look at the various churches, ancient dwellings, palaces and monuments and you will see evidence of Granada’s former title as the capital of Moorish Spain. Today, Granada is regarded as a large town rather than a small city. It is a beautiful, well located town which has managed to retain much of its ancient charm. As Granada is a popular university town, it also offers many restaurants, cafes, theatres, clubs and bars.

Granada is uniquely situated between the Sierra Nevada Mountains and the Costa del Sol in the beautiful region of Andalucía. There is so much to see and do here. You will find some of Spain’s finest cuisine in Granada, as well as opportunities for trekking or skiing in the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Of course, you also have access to the hugely popular beaches of the Costa del Sol.

In the area around Granada you will find many interesting places to visit. Try visiting Cordoba, which has enchanting Roman ruins and the breath-taking Mezquita, a former Catholic church which in the 14th century was converted into the largest mosque in the world. You can also spend some time exploring Malaga which is famous as the birth place of Pablo Picasso.

The quality and variety of the food in Andalucía is exceptional. Authentic dishes such as Gazpacho, Chorizo, Paella and Tapas served with locally produced wine is a fabulous culinary experience. You will see there is very little that Granada cannot offer. Combine these amazing features together and you can begin to understand why Granada is an outstanding destination for your TEFL/tesol training course.

The School

Our TEFL/TESOL courses in Granada are located in the ancient Arabic quarter called El Albayzin. The area around the school is a traffic free zone featuring fountains, plazas and narrow cobblestone streets. El Albayzin is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and faces towards the Alhambra Palace.

Our course in Granada has an historic setting exemplified by the authentic Moorish style dwellings called casas and carmens. These superb buildings are the essence of everything that Andalucía is famous for. Ancient Moorish architecture surrounds the white washed buildings, concealing cool interior patios, hidden gardens and water features.

Our training centre has a fabulous garden, a number of classrooms, a computer room, a coffee shop, wireless internet connection and everything you could require to complete your TEFL/TESOL course successfully.

Our training centre is perfectly situated so that everything Granada has to offer is nearby. It should only take 10 minutes to walk into the centre of Granada, but because El Albayzin is situated on a hill side you may find it takes nearer to 15 minutes to walk back. If you are feeling lazy there are regular buses to take you into town and back.

Accommodation

For the duration of your TEFL/TESOL course we can provide the opportunity for you to stay in a restored 16th century, medieval Hospederia in the historic El Albayzin district of Granada. It is hard to imagine that there is a more attractive setting for your accommodation anywhere else in the world.

With this accommodation option you will be allocated a private en suite room with a shared general area including wireless internet connection, TV, dining area, a large kitchen and laundry facilities. This option also comes complete with a roof terrace with views of the Alhambra Palace. The training centre is just a short walk away and within a comfortable distance from Granada’s restaurants, nightlife, historical sites and transport network.

  • What is the course schedule?

    Expand

    The first session starts on Monday at 9:00 a.m. sharp.

    You will receive a course timetable on the first day of the course. The timetable is subject to change depending on holidays and other considerations.

    Trainees must attend all sessions included on the timetable unless they are sick and require medical treatment. This is particularly important for Teaching Practice (TP) as it is very difficult to arrange alternate TP times. You will normally have roughly three hours of input for each day of the course schedule.

    Teaching practice is usually held in the evenings and each lesson lasts for 60 minutes. Trainees either team-teach or observe these classes. When teaching, trainees are observed by qualified staff; feedback is given after each class, usually on the following day.

  • What can I expect during teaching practice?

    Expand

    Lessons are delivered to students aged 16 years and older. The vast majority of students are Spanish but other nationalities do attend some classes. Class size varies from one-to-one lessons up to 16 students. Lessons are based upon real teaching resources found all over the world and you will have the chance to create your own materials as well. You will receive the aid of your course trainer throughout lesson planning and receive feedback on your lesson after it’s been delivered. Practicum is assessed and a satisfactory assessment is required to earn your TEFL/TESOL certificate.

  • Who usually attends the course?

    Expand

    We average 24 trainees on each course. The majority of trainees are British or American, while many others come from Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Ireland, South Africa and the Philippines. Occasionally, we do get fluent non-native English speakers from Western Europe, Scandinavia, India, China, Thailand, etc. Trainees must be 18 years of age or older and the age range varies greatly depending on the course.

  • Is there a dress code?

    Expand

    During trainees’ lessons, casual attire is allowed. There are specific dress requirements that adhere to the local Spanish culture and basic ideas of professionalism. All trainees are expected to dress ‘casually smart’. Visible tattoos and piercings are not acceptable. ‘Office standard’ hairstyles and coloring are also required.

  • What should I bring for course studies?

    Expand

    Please be sure to arrive on the first day of the course with a notebook and a pen. You may also want to bring a recording device, a digital Dictaphone or a smart phone would be ideal. We encourage you to bring a laptop as we have Wi-Fi at the training center. It is also a good idea to bring a thumb drive (data stick). We will provide all course materials for you so there is no need to bring anything else for the course itself.
