WHY TAKE A TESOL/TEFL COURSE IN ISTANBUL

Istanbul, with its natural beauty, its long history, and its beautiful, architectural sights is a city that has attracted local and international tourists for ages. Here are five great things to do in Istanbul.

Visit Hagia Sophia.
Once the biggest cathedral in the world for hundreds of years, the Hagia Sophia is considered the magnum opus of Byzantine architecture. Some say the building is symbolic of the eclectic history of Istanbul itself, with beautiful Christian mosaics alongside brilliant Islamic calligraphy.

Go shopping to the Grand Bazaar.
Located a little more than a mile west of Sultanahmet, the Grand Bazaar is one of the biggest and oldest indoor shopping markets in the world.

Spend time in the European part of Istanbul.
Taksim is a vibrant, modern neighborhood located in the European part of Istanbul. Scores of restaurants and bars are populated with travelers, as well as popular hotels. Burger Kind is a hit here.

Enjoy Turkish nightlife in Ortakoy.
While the Taksim area draws the vast majority of partygoers, the small neighborhood of Ortakoy happily enjoys its less popular status. Its isolated position translates to a more Turkish crowd with few tourists

Take a Turkish bath.
The Süleymaniye Hamam is a historic Turkish bath located near the Suleymaniye mosque. It caters primarily to tourists and has a reputation for being clean and non-sketchy (which is a legitimate concern at some of the baths in Istanbul).

The EFL students are Turkish citizens who come to the school to be taught by the TEFL trainees.

Turkish schools desperately seek qualified TEFL teachers, it’s is easy for the school in terms of job placement support.As with all our locations, graduating from the 120-Hour on-site TEFL course in Istanbul makes you eligible to work at all schools worldwide, including schools in South Korea and Saudi Arabia. Those are countries that pay the highest salaries; however, they also want to see a program with intensive teaching practicum.
