Refund Policy

Our Refund Policy

Because we train future English teachers in our institution English For Life (TEFL Language s.r.o.) it is extremely important for our trainees to practise their teaching skills on a specific number of students during each day of the course. The trainees prepare their teaching materials and plan the structure of their lesson plan based on the number of students registered for the course. They receive the number of practice students at the beginning of the course. In case this number changes (lowers), it can be quite difficult for the trainees to adjust to a new number and may lead to uncomfortable consequences.

Payment for the course and the deposit is possible in cash at the reception, via bank transfer to the bank account of the educational institution: TEFL Language s.r.o. or online payment at our “website”.

If you register via an online form or an email, you are registered as a candidate. Your place will be officially reserved with a full course payment, including the deposit. Please, make the payment by Friday before each course begins.

I cannot attend one day, what can I do?

Whenever you cannot attend a day of the course, you may send a substitution in your stead – recommend our course to your friends, colleagues, or family members who could attend the lessons as your substitute.

Please note – it is very important that your substitution is on the same level you are registered for.

Assuming you do not have the possibility to send a substitution, we highly recommend you post on our Facebook page or ask one of your classmates whether they know of someone who could attend the day instead of you.

However, if you cannot find a substitution, 100 CZK will be deducted from your deposit which you paid together with the course payment at the beginning of the course. However, the full deposit forfeits to the educational institution TEFL Language s.r.o. if you miss 6 or more days of the course *viz “Terms and Conditions of Deposit”
