In this episode Lauren and I discuss our experience taking a four week Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) course in Costa Rica! We take the course through Maximo Nivel. They have four campuses, and we took our course at the Manuel Antonio location. So for one month we lived in the town of Quepos, attended school in Manuel Antonio with a gorgeous view of the Pacific Ocean (see the Instagram), and learned how to teach English to speakers of other languages!

If you're considering taking a TEFL or ESL course, then this episode is for you! If you aren't familiar with TEFL or ESOL/ESL but may be interested in teaching, in living and working abroad either long term or for a gap year, give it a listen!

Check out the Instagram @andyaboutandabroad where I'll be sharing pic and videos from the school and our time taking this course. And also to see what I am up to currently as well as some travel humor stuff.
