My experience with maximo Nivel was amazing. The TEFL course with Professor Lewis was the best class, he is very helpful and real when it comes to feedback. While the course was intensive, it was so rewarding and very enjoyable. We teach real learners, they want to learn and you should be open minded and know not all of them will be at the same level of english. I would highly recommend it for anyone looking to teach English. The course is fast paced and it can be overwhelming but its doable, you can still explore the town and go to the beacg just manage your time. Final Practical Teacheing Week (PTW) is tough, be prepared to work hard. You will have fun, the fisrt two weeks are fun and light but after that is game on!
