Global Vision International: The GVI 100-hour TEFL course is offered in Tulum, Mexico and Phang Nga, Thailand. The GVI TEFL course was written to train people interested in sustainable development and conservation. The goal is to prepare people to teach in communities which are developing rapidly in response to tourism and assist local people in accessing the revenue in their own community, thereby participating more fully in the changes happening in their own community.
100-hour TEFL Certificate Course - The TEFL course is run within a 5 or 10-week teaching and community development expedition. While the focus is on teaching oral English with few resources in remote communities, the course prepares teachers well for teaching in different contexts anywhere in the world. The course runs Mon-Thurs., with cultural and environmental activities and projects on Fridays. The course fee includes shared accommodation and food for a full 5 weeks, plus cultural activities, excursions, and a first-aid course.
Participants take part in conservation and cultural activities, weekend excursions, Spanish and Mayan language classes, and a basic first aid course. Participants who complete the course requirements over the 4-week period will receive the GVI TEFL Course Certificate. Participants who choose to complete only the first two weeks of the course will receive the GVI Introduction to TEFL Certificate (A 50-hour TEFL course option is also available).
GVI offers a job placement service to all GVI TEFL graduates, assisting them in finding placements in local communities around the world or paid positions in the TEFL Industry. Volunteer placements are likewise available at GVI partner sites or at other GVI locations around the world.
IH Riviera Maya provides CELTA (Certificate in English Language Teaching to Adults) courses in the centre of Playa del Carmen, just south of Cancún in the north-east of Quintana Roo, on Mexico's idyllic Caribbean coast.

The CELTA is a common requirement for those entering the field of ELT (English language teaching). Recognised internationally, it is a popular credential among people who wish to travel and teach English worldwide. However, it is also held by people who intend to teach only in the country where they trained, and do not intend to travel.
Success in the CELTA course has enabled many candidates to obtain their first teaching position: The course is highly regarded by employers as providing sound initial training and a strong basis from which to develop as a teacher of English.
CELTA (Certificate in English Language Teaching to Adults) course:
- It is the best known teacher training course for English language teachers in the world.
- The CELTA provides initial training leading to a Certificate in English Language Teaching to Adults, probably the best choice available for an initial ELT (or TEFL / TESOL) qualification.

We’re a small, friendly and intimate language school based in the idyllic location of Chiapa de Corzo, the oldest town in the rural state of Chiapas in Mexico.

We’ve been providing affordable opportunities to the families of the local community to learn English from native speakers for years, creating a comfortable, enjoyable learning environment with a small dedicated team. We also use these classes to provide TEFL training and hands-on authentic teaching experience for those wishing to begin a career teaching abroad.
The special relationship with our Mexican language students allows us to enjoy very close links with the community and provides unique and wonderful experiences for the staff that work with us and the trainees that enrol in our courses and volunteer in our local schools.
