TEACHER TRAINING PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Do you want to travel? Why not teach English abroad as thousands of young Americans have done? In many parts of the world, the opportunities for trained ESL teachers abound. You can learn to teach abroad and earn a TEFL certificate at Action in English, in our full- or part-time teacher training course in Boston.

Located in Boston's elegant Back Bay neighborhood, Action in English is a subsidiary of the Olin Center, accredited by the American Council of Continuing Education (ACCET). We offer full- and part-time courses designed to enable those without formal ESL teaching experience or training to teach English as a Second Language (ESL) and English as a Foreign Language (EFL) in as few as four weeks. In that time we teach you the theory and basics of teaching English and direct you to your first teaching job overseas: We show you where the jobs are how to get them.

Learn to teach overseas--in Boston!



"Our TEFL instructors were of the highest caliber. The course taught me so much in four weeks that it is difficult to believe. Among other things, I gained invaluable experience in isolating my objectives, putting together and teaching from a lesson plan.
The course also showed me some valuable tools for finding a good job. An outstanding value."


Mary Pope, interest group leader, Harvard Neighbors, Harvard University

"I received a lot of feedback and rules on teaching methods and resources. I appreciated the amount of effort that went into the process."

Riley Hanick, Iowa City, Iowa

"The teachers were very good, with a lot of knowledge and experience. The teaching practice was helpful."
