    Testimonials

    "If you are interested in teaching ESL in the US or abroad, this is the program for you! All of the class instruction was relevant and really prepared me to be an effective teacher." ~Nathan

    "Having taught in China with folks who had ESL certs from England, Canada, Australia, & NZ, as well as other places in the US, plus a few with Master's degrees in TESOL, I'll put S-TESL up against any one of them for all-around preparation." ~ Leslie
    from a discussion on S-TESL's internet discussion list about preparation and subsequent teaching experiences.
