Testimonials
I recently finished a course with INTESOL Greece and wanted to add a few comments on my experience. The guidance and teaching from Mihaela was amazing. I went in expecting a lot of work and found that but at no point was I overwhelmed thanks to the expert training I was given. Being able to teach actual Greek students during the course was a fantastic experience. The entire course, the training and location were ideal and overall a life changing experience.
Thank you very much.

Amazing! Couldn't have wished for a more relaxed welcoming atmosphere. Everything is in one place: school, rooms, pool, pool bar. So important on such an intensive course. Our trainer was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about all aspects of ESOL teaching. Always calm and able to answer any questions put to her Support was excellent even when our trainer was very busy she would stop and help. Never made us feel like we couldn’t knock on her door. Mihaela and Victor were the perfect hosts. I will highly recommend both the course and the hotel to anyone interested in a TESOL course.

I expected an intensive course, and there’s a lot of ground covered in four weeks, but I was surprised by the quality and the holistic/human course delivery. The trainer was very generous. Provided a model of how to create an environment for growth and learning. Generously shared knowledge and skills. Offered support, time, respected individual styles. Always there, always present, always herself. The accommodation was perfect. Good to have a quiet space and all the hotel spaces for meeting and chatting. There is nothing I read before coming on the course that prepared me for the potential for personal growth that Mihaela made possible. Maybe you could find the words cos’ I can’t. Thank you for being here.

Tutor was exceptional! Extremely knowledgeable and able to convey material in a simple manner. Extremely patient as well. Course content was diverse. The range of topics covered was perfect. From what to teach, how to teach, to what we do when we leave here. Excellent. I don’t feel lost. Everyone (teacher and director) were excellent and understanding of what students need. Emotionally as well. Not once felt unguided. Don’t change. You are all such wonderful people!

Thank you SO much for being such a good host. Heather felt like she was with her second family. I have been at peace in my heart knowing she is with good people such as all of you. Please do not leave Crete until I am able to visit you all! That is my latest goal-to visit Crete and Victor and Mihaela. With Heather’s support I am sure we can make it happen. And if your travels ever take you to the United States and to the state of Ohio, you will find a small suburb near Toledo and Detroit Michigan called Maumee (Maw mee). That is where you will find a family ready to welcome you at any time. I might even fix you that yummy American potato salad !!! (reference to Heather’s use of this recipe for her authentic materials lesson). Thank you so much for being the friend that you are and may God bless you.

INTESOL-Greece is fantastic! It's the experience of a lifetime! The location, accommodation, classes, staff - everything is simply wonderful! At home in the U.S. I am a high school history teacher so I have taken my share of education classes. But our trainer, Mihaela, is the best instructor I have ever had! She organizes the material in a clear and logical way and brings such energy to the classroom that you can't help but be excited about your progress. We were never at a loss for guidance, creative ideas or support - on ALL levels. Obtaining a TESOL certificate has opened so many doors for me and I can't wait to put it to work while exploring our world at the same time! I recommend this course to everyone - without a doubt!

Housing

You will be accommodated in the INTESOL House, a cosy four-room traditional house in the Venetian Old Town. The house has cooking facilities (a fully equipped kitchen) and a large and comfortable social area with a fireplace. The house is at two-minute walk from the Venetian Harbour, and within walking distance from shopping areas, banks, restaurants, pharmacies, etc and at a short distance from the school.

For the students on a four-week course, we offer the choice of single occupancy rooms for € 350 per person and shared twin bedded rooms at a reduced rate of €250 per person and that basically first come first served. To secure a single room you should pay a deposit of €100. If you arrive one or two days before the start date of the course or leave one or two days after the end of the course, you will not be charged extra.

For the students on the hybrid course (flexible TESOL, two-week onsite course) the price for the accommodation is € 175 for a single room, and € 125 for a twin-bedded room per person.

As the number of rooms in the INTESOL House is limited, we kindly request our future students that they should let us know what kind of accommodation they prefer as soon as they are accepted on our courses. For the ones who cannot be accommodated in the INTESOL House, we will arrange accommodation in Chania, at a short distance from the school at about the same price as the INTESOL house.

You can either pay for your accommodation prior to your arrival or you can pay in cash when you get here.
