San Francisco California TEFL Course Faq | TEFL Courses USA

Course deposits must be paid to our administrative center. Credit/debit card payments are the fastest and cheapest way to pay, but we also accept payments via Western Union, PayPal and bank transfer. While there are no deadlines for a deposit, courses can fill up quickly and your seat will only be reserved after the deposit has been paid.

Once you make your deposit, you will receive an email with an info pack that provides detailed information about the course and the San Francisco area.

The balance of the course fee must be paid in US dollars directly to the San Francisco school. The payment can be made in cash on the first day of the course or via bank transfer at least two weeks before the course start date.

Course fees are all-inclusive so you won’t be asked to pay additional costs for course related materials or services. This also includes course moderation, accreditation fees and lifetime job assistance.

Once a course deposit has been received we will provide you with a list of available accommodation located within easy reach of the training center. If you have any special requirements regarding accommodation, we will do all we can to help with the arrangements.

If you are travelling to the course from outside of the USA you should contact your nearest American Embassy for the most accurate and current information regarding travel documents for your specific nationality. You should also be able to find the relevant information (application documents, application fees, duration of processing documents) by visiting the embassy’s webpage.

A full course schedule will be provided once your deposit payment has been received. A brief orientation for the course and the first classroom session begins on Wednesday afternoon at 5:30 p.m. Classroom sessions generally run between 5:30 p.m. and 10:00 p.m. with appropriate breaks. Trainees are expected to attend all input sessions included on the schedule.

There are no specific dress requirements for our classroom sessions, we simply ask that you are mindful of your fellow trainees and respect the fact that the course takes place in a professional educational environment.

All you need to bring to your first session is a pen and notebook for taking notes; all other required resources will be provided. The school also provides free access to the internet so you are welcome to bring along a laptop or other device if you wish.
