Taking your TEFL course in Costa Rica during the months of July and August is a decision you'll be glad you made. In these months, the rain showers often subside temporarily for a mini dry season known as "Veranillo de San Juan," providing you with plenty of sunshine-filled days to explore or relax after your TEFL sessions. Moreover, with fewer tourists around during this time, it's an excellent opportunity to engage more deeply with the local community, enhancing your Spanish skills, and experiencing the authentic Costa Rican lifestyle. Amidst the vibrant landscapes and warm weather, you'll find the perfect setting to enhance your teaching skills and embark on an unforgettable adventure.
During this intensive, one-month course you will acquire both the necessary skills and knowledge to become an effective and dynamic ESL teacher. There are three important areas of focus which will ensure that you achieve this goal:
The confidence of knowing you're ready to teach
An excellent grasp of important grammar rules
A good base of different teaching techniques
A solid database of proven activities for use in the classroom for both adult and young learners
