**Our school is located in the charming neighborhood of Vysocany, Prague 9. The school is just a 5 minute walk to the Vysocanska metro stop on the yellow line, which is a direct line that gets you to the center of Prague in about 10 minutes. We are located in a 15th century newly renovated building next to a small park. There is a nice restaurant in the building where our students like to go for lunch. There are also plenty of other restaurants close to the school and the prices are a good 15% to 20% cheaper than the restaurants in the center, which tend to cater to tourist.

**We will be here for you before, during and after the course. I have personally recruited about 1000 students and have helped them prepare for their transition to studying and teaching in Prague and elsewhere in the world. The staff at TEFL Worldwide always works closely with all of our students to ensure that they find a suitable teaching position. We know what it is like to start off in another country.
