 Employers & Graduates
but there’s no need to just take our word for it, here’s a few kind words
our TEFL Courses!
from some of our schools and graduates…
“ “
What our schools say…
Our i-to-i graduate’s commitment in teaching and his
helpfulness with new teachers has been astounding. The
school has definitely made him their favourite teacher and if
all our recruits were like him we would please every school we
contract our teachers to.
Mike Maitland, Managing Director of Echo English School
i-to-i work really hard to prepare their graduates for the
realities of teaching English abroad. There are very few other
courses that are as comprehensive which is one of the main
reasons we like to work with i-to-i graduates!
Claire Negus, Managing Director, ESLstarter
The i-to-i graduates we have interviewed and hired over
the years for our schools in China can always be counted
“
on to deliver exceptional lessons. We often turn to i-to-i for
our hiring needs and have complete confidence that their
teachers will do a fantastic job inside the classroom.
Jim Althans, Director of Recruitment, Gold Star Teachers
22 / www.i-to-i.com
Our TEFL Courses and Diplomas are a head and shoulders above the rest,
What our graduates say…
Thanks to i-to-i, a year and a half ago I came to Granada in
Spain. I work as an English teacher in a fantastic academy, I
have a lovely house and fantastic life! I love teaching and my
students are great. I am the happiest I have ever been, thank
you!
Annie, TEFL Teacher in Spain
To everyone still doing their TEFL or thinking of doing it, the
doors it can open for you are just amazing! You don’t realise
it until you actually finish the course and start sending your
i-to-i certificate off, but you can literally go wherever you like
and start a new life!
Sophie, TEFL Teacher in Taiwan
Not only was the course feedback extremely informative
and helpful, the tutors themselves were very pleasant and
“
quick to grade submissions. Also, whenever I had to deal with
i-to-i staff, everyone was tremendously nice and helpful. Your
company inspired me to finally go abroad, thank you!
