    Course Content

    The Teacher Training Course offered by School is 140 hours long and is taught over a period of 3 weeks. A comprehensive course, it comprises of a syllabus that covers several specialized teaching disciplines in addition to a traditional TEFL (Teaching English as Foreign Language) course.

    A traditional TEFL course is typically 120 hours long and is taught over a period of 3 weeks. Classes for a traditional TEFL course are usually held Monday through Friday in a schedule that spans 6 hours a day. Our classes follow an 8-hour time schedule. This enables us to supplement the traditional TEFL course with additional coursework in specialised areas like Business English, Teaching English Online, Teaching Young Learners, Teaching Math and Teaching Science while ensuring that our students graduate a week earlier fully equipped to become successful teachers.

    School’s Teacher Training Course is, therefore, one of the most intensive courses available in the market. The fun and informative in-class instruction is often combined with up to four hours of homework per day as it is our job to turn you into teachers. It is a rigorous course which offers training in many additional skills at no extra cost.

    Our course has trained and successfully placed over 6,000 teachers since its inception. In 2016, out course was awarded the Best TEFL provider in Thailand (both foreign or domestic) at the Thailand Educational Awards - a distinction we continue to uphold. If you are looking for a teacher training company that takes your training and success seriously, then look no further, we are the best fit for you.
