TEFL TESOL Courses in Seville

Seville is the capital and largest city in the region of Andalucía in southern spain. The city is perhaps one of the most stunning and energetic cities in Europe. Seville is known for its vitality and no visitor can escape getting caught up in its enthusiastic atmosphere. The city is chic, proud, self-assured and historic, while also being welcoming and fun-filled. Its inhabitants, known as Sevillians, are famous for their humour and vivacity.

Tapas originated in Seville and the city has over a thousand bars which offer an almost unlimited variety, from cheese to vegetables, from ham and sausage to seafood, the Sevillians certainly love their food. Sevillians enjoy moving from bar to bar and sampling one dish at each venue, tapas can certainly make a refreshing alternative to traditional meals.

The areas around Seville are certainly worth a visit and are also easy to get to. A distance of 24 miles east of Seville is the wonderfully maintained town of Carmona. It is one of Spain’s oldest towns and there you will find a stunning, distinguished area of top class restaurants and boutiques. Just five miles north of Seville are the impressive mosaics and amphitheatre of Italica which was once the third largest city in the Roman Empire. This city grew in importance in the 2nd century AD during the reign of Hadrian when it had a population of half a million people.

Studying a tefl/tesol course in Seville is a perfect opportunity to explore the city and immerse yourself in the Type of Spanish culture that only Seville can offer. Once you have completed your course and become qualified to teach English in Spain you will find that many job opportunities open up for you.

Seville part-time program

We offer this option to those who are unable to take the full-time four-week program due to work, family situations or other commitments. If an applicant decides that they need to take the part-time program they must commit to and attend week 1 of the four-week program as this is when the entire course introduction is given. Once week 1 is completed the trainee sits down with the director and goes over his or her availability and a tailor-made schedule is created that fits in with the trainee’s availability in conjunction with the ongoing schedule of the full-time courses. The part-time course usually takes around two months to complete depending on what the trainee can commit to.

A common part-time schedule cannot be set as it will depend on the trainee’s availability. They will need to do some mornings and evenings and each individual case will look different.

An example of this could be as follows:

A student is unavailable Monday and Tuesday evenings as well as Wednesday and Thursday mornings.

They would need to make the necessary arrangements to attend the first full week of the full-time program. The director would then draft up a schedule for the following two months where the trainee would attend all of the pre-requisite classes either in the morning or afternoons. They would also do all of their afternoon teaching practices on Wednesdays and Thursdays.

Once all the requirements of a regular full-time course are successfully fulfilled, they would attend the graduation ceremony of the second full-time course and receive their certificate.

Regarding accommodation, trainees can stay in the lodgings provided during the part-time program, but the minimum stay is four weeks. The price is 16€/night in an individual room. The course balance is the same for full- and part-time students and both amounts are due no later than the first day of the program.

Our accommodation for Seville is in three or four bedroom apartments. You will be allocated your own room (unless you want to share) with up to three other trainees as roommates. Prices start at 16 € per night for single rooms and 11 € per night for shared accommodation (per person). You can pay for your accommodation before the course starts or upon arrival.

The apartments are comfortable and simply furnished, with kitchens equipped with basic cooking utensils, stoves, refrigerators and washing machines. Blankets and sheets are provided, but bath towels are not. The apartments are also equipped with fans and electric heaters. Like most homes in southern Spain, during the winter it is often much colder inside the houses than outside.

Each location is well equipped with grocery stores, pharmacies, restaurants, bars and shops. They are also well connected with the city centre, with bike routes and several direct bus lines to the main city square. City buses are used by everyone in Seville as they are safe, affordable and easy to use.

Because these apartments are shared among other trainees, we cannot allow you to invite friends or family to stay in your room.
