Overview
Become certified to teach English overseas by obtaining the fully accredited, externally validated, and internationally recognized SIT TESOL Certificate course in beautiful Krakow, Poland (licensed by the globally respected School for International Training, USA). We offer a four-week intensive course with job placement assistance for successful participants. The course provides a theoretical base with numerous workshops aimed at developing English language skills competence, lesson planning, lesson delivery, effective teaching techniques, and evaluation skills; additionally, participants get actual classroom experience in practice teaching sessions with Polish EFL students.
The course takes place at St. James Education, a licensed, full-time host site for the SIT TESOL Certificate Course. Our facility is located in central Krakow, one of the most beautiful and historic cities in Europe. Krakow fared far better than most Polish cities in WWII, and it therefore has been able to retain its centuries-old architectural splendor. The post-communist era has seen considerable development and renovation and Krakow has quickly gone from a drab city behind the Iron Curtain to a vibrant, cultural, cosmopolitan European city which attracts millions of visitors annually. However, Poland is still comparatively cheaper than its western neighbors, which allows us to offer one of the least-expensive SIT TESOL Certificate course tuitions worldwide.
This is an international ESOL teaching credential. Graduates of our program have gone on to secure teaching jobs here in Poland as well as in countries such as Mexico, China, South Korea, Russia, Germany, Kazakhstan, and the USA. We offer job placement assistance in Poland and several other countries for program graduates.
