Come to Madison, Wisconsin, and join our in-class tefl/tesol training course. Named after former president James Madison, the city has always been a prosperous place. Not only is Madison famous for its commercial and educational influences, but also for its natural beauty. The city is surrounded by four lakes covering an area of over 15,000 acres. Native Americans from the Ho Chunk tribe called this “the sacred land†and settled here long before the first American settlers came to the area. Appreciating the natural resources they were given, the Ho Chunk referred to the land as Taychopera, meaning land of the four lakes. Still to this day, Lake Mendota, Lake Monona, Lake Kegonsa, and Lake Waubesa, are a big draw to visitors from far and wide. As you can see, Madison is truly a great place to start your tefl/tesol journey!
The University of Wisconsin is located in Madison and is a major reason for the city’s rapid expansion. In 1848 the first settlement only numbered around 620 people, however, after the opening of the university, Madison quickly grew to over 6,800 people by 1854. Today, the University of Wisconsin is highly rated in the World University Rankings and it attracts students from all over the world. This is also a great advantage when training to be a certified tefl/tesol teacher, as the city has a long standing reputation for its high-quality education.
After classes and on weekends, you have the opportunity to spend quality time outdoors in the lakes area to recharge your batteries. Due to the abundance of nature here in Madison, the selection of leisure activities is limitless. Whether you enjoy fishing, swimming or kayaking, or taking in the local flora and fauna by exploring over 200 miles of hiking and biking trails, you will find that Madison is a true paradise. After you have enjoyed some time outdoors, be sure to also take advantage of the local cultural offerings. The Forward Theater Company always holds the best plays in town and the countless variety of museums and exhibition halls allow you to indulge in the fascinating history of the region.
