TEFL Costa Rica

The Maximo Nievel TEFL course was such an amazing experience. Be prepared, this course is very intense, about a full semesters worth of material and work. Although you will be working very hard, Maximo offers you full support throughout the entire process. Lewis is an outstanding teacher! He is so knowledgeable about ESL teaching and has lived so many experiences all over the world. His experience as a teacher is one of the most valuable aspects of the course, you will learn SO much from him. I learned so much, not only from the course itself, but from being immersed in the Costa Rican culture. This country is so full of beauty, and I’m so grateful for the chance to experience this country while gaining a new skill. I would definitely recommend TEFL to anyone who wants to try something new and experience a new place!
