How Parents Can Take Part in Their Children's Education
Parents have a definite role in the education of their children, especially if the language of the family is different from the target language of the children. Because of the closeness that should exist between parent and child, the first teachers in all areas of life should be the parent. However, due to the situations created in our society, this is not often the case. When one thinks of modern society, the difficulties that parents encounter in the role of the teacher can be seen.

TEFL Seville - ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ TEFL Spain ▷ ITTT course
TEFL Seville | TEFL Spain
The beautiful city of Seville is a great choice of location for your TEFL course in Spain. It is the capital and largest city in the region of Andalusia in the south of the country and is also one of the largest historical centres in Europe. Throughout the city you will find fascinating narrow streets full of magnificent monuments and historic buildings which stand as a legacy to the city's ancient heritage.
Seville is quite possibly one of Europe's most beautiful and exuberant cities and is well known for its easy going, laid back atmosphere. Sevillians also love their food, especially tapas which the city is credited with inventing, and has more than a thousand bars where the choice of dishes is staggering, from seafood to sausage, from vegetables to cheese and...

TEFL Barcelona - ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ TEFL Spain ▷ combined course
TEFL Barcelona | TEFL Spain
Barcelona is simply a magnificent city that offers a wide variety of things to do and sights to see. As the second city in Spain, you would expect to find a huge bustling metropolis. However, with a population of just two million, Barcelona offers a disproportionate range of entertainment, arts and culture, while remaining small enough to access all parts of the city easily.
You will never be without things to see or do during your TEFL course in Barcelona. Tapas evenings, cafè crawls, sailing trips, skiing, windsurfing, wine tasting and beautiful beaches - we can arrange just about anything. Barcelona also boasts an outstanding nightlife that rivals the very best that the Mediterranean coast has to offer.
With a TEFL certificate from ITTT you will find there... [Read more]

5 Weekend Trips You Have to Take While Teaching Abroad in Tokyo
Tokyo is a dream city for many people who aspire to live abroad. It is modern yet traditional, and a vibrant culture of food, fashion, and popular media among other things ensures that it has something for everyone. For all its excitement, however, Tokyo is only one part of Japan as a whole. Each area of the island nation holds a distinct culture of its own, offering a myriad of experiences for travelers. Luckily, those who teach English in Japan have easy access to the country's major airports and extensive bullet train lines, meaning they can access almost anywhere else in Japan within a few hours. While living in Tokyo make the most of your experience abroad, and try checking... [Read more]

TEFL Bangkok | TEFL Thailand
A World Called Bangkok
There's a reason why Bangkok was named as one of the world's Top Ten Cities by Travel + Leisure and the number one visited city by Global Destination Cities Index.
It's a city of fabulous restaurants, frantic non-stop shopping, pristine temples and Thailand's best museums. It's teeming with both modern life, city malls and traditional cultural enclaves and floating markets. If you're in to night life, the City of Angles is second to none.
It's arguably the single best city in Thailand for Thai food – one of the world's great cuisines – whether you're eating on the street or at five star restaurants.
Bangkok is easy to know, but hard to define. Perhaps that's the reason why some who come end up staying for years. The city is a... [Read more]

The ancient Romans called Rome “The Eternal City” as they believed it would go on forever and indeed this seems to be the case. Even if you have never visited Rome before you have probably seen the city in films and are familiar with some of its monuments and landmarks such as the Colosseum, the Roman Forum, the Pantheon, the Trevi Fountain, the Spanish Steps and of course the Vatican City. In fact, the entire centre of Rome is a UNESCO world heritage site.
Rome hosts many festivals as well. Exhibitions, concerts, Expo and other shows and events take place throughout the year and themes include everything from technology, fashion and modern art to theatre, music and dance from all over the world. The city is brimming with history, arts and culture. From the... [Read more]

The historical city of Granada is a magical location to take a TEFL course. Granada is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and home to Spain's most visited attraction, the Alhambra Palace. It is the former capital of Moorish Spain and this is evident in the many palaces, churches, monuments and ancient dwellings that are still home to many of the city’s inhabitants. Today, the city retains much of its ancient charm and is set in a delightfully well situated location. It is also a popular university town with a vibrant nightlife, as well as plenty of interesting restaurants, cafes, bars, theatres and clubs.
