Tefl Toulouse

Our 4 week, externally accredited TEFL course is held at our training centre in central Toulouse, overlooking the beautiful Jardin de Plantes. The course is entirely in class and contains around 140 hours of classroom time including at least 6 hours observed teaching practice, teaching mainly French people living locally. The course runs from 9am am to 6,30 pm Monday to Friday for 4 weeks, and courses are held year round, including August. We also offer a range of professional development courses for those who are already TEFL qualified, and a blended TEFL course for those unable to come to Toulouse for the 4 weeks. France Travail will often fund trainees who are registered as unemployed with them. A range of accommodation options is available, with no placement fee.
