Spěváček Language School
TEFL Worldwide is part of a large language school in the Czech Republic
Spěváček is the third largest language school in the Czech Republic. We are based mainly in Prague with classrooms located all around the city. We teach predominantly English but teach many other languages as well (Spanish, German, French, Czech, Russian and Japanese, to name just a few). We offer courses for adults, teenagers and children; group courses and individual course; General English, Business English and English for Specific Purposes.
We currently have about 340 teachers from around the world teaching either full time or part time with us. Our school continues to grow, so we usually need to hire new teachers every month.
One of the reasons we started a TEFL course was to establish a steady stream of new teachers who were trained to our high standards. The course acts as a thorough interview process which means we can hire graduates with confidence on their completion of the course. Many of the TEFL course graduates get a job offer from the school straight after the course finishes. During the course you will have access to the school’s resources and have the opportunity to meet some of the school’s teachers.
