The classrooms are equipped with Interactive Whiteboards and have space for about 20 students. TEFL students learn to handle boards which they most likely encounter in modern classrooms around the world. This brings increased value to the TEFL course in Azerbaijan.

Besides the classrooms, the school features a lunch area for students where they can get coffee or tea and snacks. Classes run from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm from Monday through Thursday and from 9:00 am – 1:00 pm on Fridays. There is a lunch break from 1:00 pm to 2:00 pm Mondays through Thursdays.

After an initial week of theory study, the TEFL trainees start the daily teaching practice with Week 2 of the program.

The teaching practice with Azerbaijanis (adult learners) is followed by immediate feedback. The career support starts during Week 2. You will set up your resume/CV and send it to schools in your desired destination—whether in Azerbaijan or in other parts of the world.
