TEFL Courses in Seville | Spain

Course deposits must be paid to our administrative center. Credit/debit card payments are the fastest and cheapest way to pay, but we also accept payments via Western Union, Pay Pal and bank transfer. While there are no deadlines for a deposit, courses can fill up quickly and your seat will only be reserved after the deposit has been paid.

Once you make your deposit, you will receive an email with an informational packet that provides detailed information about the course and Seville itself.

The balance of course fees are payable on the first day of class and can be made with a credit/debit card, cash, Pay Pal or bank transfer.

Late fees of 25€ per day may be applied if payment is not made. Please note that if you choose to pay by bank transfer you must add the transfer fees to the tuition balance. If payments have not been received by the end of class on Wednesday afternoon of the first week, you must receive permission from TEFL International Seville to remain on the course.

Course fees are all-inclusive so you won’t be asked to pay additional costs for course related materials or services. This also includes course moderation, accreditation fees and lifetime job assistance.

Our accommodation for Seville is in three or four bedroom apartments. You will be allocated your own room (unless you want to share) with up to three other trainees as roommates. Prices start at 16 € per night for single rooms and 11 € per night for shared accommodation (per person). You can pay for your accommodation before the course starts or upon arrival.

The apartments are comfortable and simply furnished, with kitchens equipped with basic cooking utensils, stoves, refrigerators and washing machines. Blankets and sheets are provided, but bath towels are not. The apartments are also equipped with fans and electric heaters. Like most homes in southern Spain, during the winter it is often much colder inside the houses than outside.

Each location is well equipped with grocery stores, pharmacies, restaurants, bars and shops. They are also well connected with the city centre, with bike routes and several direct bus lines to the main city square. City buses are used by everyone in Seville as they are safe, affordable and easy to use.

Because these apartments are shared among other trainees, we cannot allow you to invite friends or family to stay in your room.

All non-EU visitors including those from the UK are required to carry a passport valid for at least six months after their arrival date in Spain. EU nationals must carry a valid national ID card.

Visitors to Spain from North America, Australia and New Zealand can stay in the country for a maximum of 90 days without a visa. All EU and UK citizens can remain in Spain without a visa. Citizens from all other countries should contact their local consulate to obtain current travel regulations.

*As this information is subject to change at any time, we advise everyone to contact your local Spanish consulate for current travel regulations prior to planning your trip.

The schedule is usually from Monday through Thursday 11:00 - 20:00 and 11:00 - 18:00 on Fridays, with preparation time and breaks built into the schedule. The school is open from 10:00 - 20:00 some days and 10:00 - 22:00 other days. You will be taught grammar, phonology, lesson planning and various teaching techniques, as well as teaching group and private lessons.

Our practice students are Spanish adults of all ages and professions. They usually stay on from course to course and form good relationships with the trainees and staff. Lessons are based upon real teaching resources found all over the world and you will have the chance to create your own materials as well. You will receive the aid of your course trainer throughout lesson planning and receive immediate feedback on your lesson after it’s been delivered. Practicum is assessed and a satisfactory assessment is required to earn your TEFL/TESOL certificate.

On average we have between six and twelve students enrolled on each program, most of whom are American or British. This number varies depending on the time of year.

For all input and tutorial sessions at the training location, there are no specific dress requirements. We simply ask that you are mindful of your peers and respectful of the fact that you are a visitor in another country.

During teaching practice, however, there are specific dress requirements that adhere to the local Spanish culture and basic ideas of professionalism. All trainees are expected to dress casually smart.

Please be sure to arrive on the first day of the course with a notebook and a pen. It is also a good idea to bring a laptop along with a pen drive as it will be a useful tool for your daily work. We will provide all course materials for you so there is no need to bring anything else for the course itself.

If you are planning on seeking work following the course, it may be a good idea to bring copies of your educational diplomas and birth certificate, as these may be useful for work or residence visas.
