Tefl

For some time I have been thinking of getting the tefl certificate.
One day it might come in handy. If I go that route
Anyone know a good program in the especially in the U.S. or Colombia. Or anywhere in North, Central or South America?
There do not seem to be many in the U.S.
One in Boston and one in California. Theres got to be more out there.
Thanks Much, kevin

Good Luck
Here is one in Colombia. It has a location in Bogata and Cali.

http://www.estudiosexterior.com/programas/telf/teacher_training_programs.htm

I will be going there in June or July if I do not get into graduate school.

There are schools in Peru and Argentina thru Bridge-Linguatic.
There are two schools in Guadlajara, Mexico.

One is at this site http://www.innovative-english.com/tefl-jobs.htm

If you type in TEFL courses in Latin America you will find more.
Good luck in your search. Let me know where you decide and if it is a good school.

Later

I know 2 in mississippi I know of atleast 2 courses in Mississippi. Advantage of mississippi is cost of living and the cost of the courses are very cheap. 2bedroom apt there is about $450-600 per month. Only problem is work is hard to come by and if you find it, it will be for minimum wage so make sure you have enough money to live on while there. Send me a message if you would like any more information on the courses.
