• What are the basic requirements to be able to join the TEFL training course?
To apply for the TEFL course which is highly regarded throughout
the world, you should have a standard of
education equivalent to that required for entry into Higher
Education in your home country.
You should be at least 20 years of age. There is no upper age limit.
You should have competent English language skills to enable you to follow and complete the course.
• Can I attend the course
even if I am not a native English speaker ?
Yes, you can, if you have competent English language skills to
enable you to follow and complete the course.
• Will FYNE Formación help me in finding a teaching
position once I have completed the course?
You will get access to a truly international
job placement.
On graduation, we may be able to offer you a teaching position
in our centre or in one of the companies where we have on-going
courses. Were there are no available positions at that time, we
will despatch your resumé to a variety of language schools
and teaching academies in Madrid, together with a reference from
ourselves. We also assist our trainees as much as possible with
leads etc., until a suitable teaching position is found.
• What is the difference between a TEFL certificate and
a TESOL certificate?
There is no difference at all. A TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign
Language) and TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages)
Certification are both qualifications that demonstrate that you
are qualified to teach English professionally.
• Do I need to have previous experience in teaching ?
You do not, although previous teaching experience in any form
could prove useful
• What is the climate like in Madrid?
The climate is one of Madrid's greatest assets. The city is located on the geographic centre of the Iberian Peninsula. Because of its central location and high altitude, the climate is characterised by hot, dry summers and cool winters. Frequent bright sunshine and blue skies help create a positive and enthusiastic outlook to everyday life.
