Cowboy Training Cent (Questions About Schools)

Warning!!!!!!!

There are a lot of cowboy training centres for potential TEFL teachers in Western Europe.

I have just attended one where there was no time table and no advise or support after attending the TESOL course as to jobs. My former colleagues and I are at sea at the moment with no work in sight. It was a case with this cowboy training centre of: well we got your money, you have your training, on your bike!!!! Also there was no breakdown as to why we got a particular grade.

Warning to all potential Trainee Teachers. Do your research before enrolling in any Teacher Training course. Back up after you have finished the course is essential.

Has anyone else had any similar experiences?

John
