About Via Lingua
The Organization
Via Lingua is a global educational organization, with schools and offices in numerous worldwide locations. Our principal goals are to help our students develop their English language teaching (TEFL) skills in a friendly and supportive environment and to provide them with employment opportunities throughout their TEFL career. Further to these goals, we aim to raise the standard of English language teaching around the world.
Our Course
Our
TEFL Course, based on established TEFL
principles and developed over a period of years by our Academic Board,
is one of the most thorough and up-to-date in the world today. Including
130 hours of expert tuition with 10 hours of assessed teaching practice,
and covering all areas of Teaching Skills, Classroom Management, English
Grammar and Phonology. It exceeds all international guidelines laid down
for the regulation of the TEFL profession.

Job Placement Assistance program with our assistance, 85% of our graduates have already found a job by the time they finish the course. Through our offices and contacts around the world, Via Lingua are uniquely placed to give you the best professional help and advice, wherever you wish to start your TEFL career. We extend the same help and advice to all of our graduates in all countries, irrespective of where and when you took your original course with us.
The Via Lingua Trainers
Via Lingua is committed to employing staff members of the
highest caliber. All our trainers hold appropriate
qualifications and have a wealth of experience as both TEFL
teachers and trainers. In addition, Via Lingua provides all
staff members with a wide range of in-house and external
professional development opportunities. Our trainers and
mentors are required to maintain a professional portfolio,
which guides and charts their achievements and development.
As part of our strategy to ensure that Via Lingua trainers
and academic staff remain at the cutting edge of TEFL
teaching, we have an agreement with various institutions to provide a regular series of
seminars for our academic staff members.
Code of Ethics
In order to ensure the integrity of the Via Lingua
organization, a code of ethics has been developed and is an
essential element of our Quality Assurance process. While
positively encouraging diversity, it is essential that all
training centers meet basic standards in relation to
facilities, advertising, internal competition, the quality
of course delivery, accommodation, trainee welfare and job
guidance. The Code of Ethics establishes basic principles,
which are followed by all centers and employees.
