EfA's Course and Workshops
In addition to internationally recognized courses such as the Cambridge CELTA and the Trinity College Tylec, English for Africa also offers short TEFL courses and workshops. These courses are designed for teachers who want to take concrete action to improve their teaching skills but don’t have the time or the resources to invest in longer courses. As with all our courses, they are highly practical in nature.
Teachers who take four of our short courses (10 hours each) receive an EfA Certificate in Communicative Language Teaching. Teachers who take four courses and three workshops receive an EfA Higher Certificate in Communicative Language Teaching.
Communicative Language Teaching Courses
EfA’s Core Teaching Skills courses are designed to provide both novice and experienced teachers with practical skills and theoretical foundations to implement the communicative language teaching (CLT) approach in today’s classroom.
These short courses can be taken to help teachers prepare to take the CELTA course, or to help CELTA graduates further consolidate their training.
Though the courses are designed for a general EFL context, they can and will be adapted to suit the specific context of the trainees. They can be offered in both online and face-to-face formats, with a maximum number of 12 participants. Each course costs 700 Moroccan Dirhams to attend, and is 10 hours long.

CLT Training Course
EfA’s Tefl Training Workshops help teachers bring innovation into the classroom, in order to both reinvigorate their teachers, and give them and their employers a competitive edge in the EFL market.
They are all very practical in nature, with teachers leaving the workshops with a toolkit of techniques and activities they can immediately start using in their classrooms. They also leave equipped with the theoretical foundations they will need to reflect upon these approaches, and adapt them to their own contexts.
All workshops are 4 hours in length and cost 250 Moroccan Dirhams to attend.
