TEFL Rome | TEFL Italy

Our TEFL course in Rome provides so much more than just a teaching certificate. For thousands of years, Rome has served as the epicentre of culture and history for Italy, Europe and the whole of Western civilization. Attending a TEFL course here is a once in a lifetime opportunity to experience Italy's capital and enjoy a well-rounded cultural experience that no passing tourist could ever imagine.

One of the symbols of Rome is its Colosseum, the largest amphitheatre ever built in the Roman Empire and originally used for gladiatorial combat. The city is also home to a wide range of important monuments such as the Roman Forum, the Pantheon, the Catacombs of Rome, the Circus Maximus, the Bocca della Verita and countless more.

During your free time you can witness all of Rome's beauty and we will do everything possible to make sure you are able to make the most of your time here. While the city itself is very large, the historical centre is compact and easily accessible so a walking tour of the city's major historic and cultural sites is possible in one day.

At a distance of only twelve miles from the coast, Rome is perfectly situated to combine the hustle and bustle of a major city with the calm and beauty of the Mediterranean’s beaches—a great way to unwind in your spare time when you are teaching English in Italy. Because Italy has one of the highest demands for TEFL teachers in Western Europe, Rome is a great location for taking your TEFL course.

Teaching resources are one of our centre'€™s strengths. When preparing your lessons you will have access to a wide range of teaching materials, from in-depth grammar resources and a constantly updated collection of textbooks, to communicative games and audio and video resources.

Wi-Fi is available to all trainees who bring their laptop so you are free to study, prepare your next class or chat with your friends and family at home while sitting on our couches enjoying an Italian espresso or a foamy cappuccino.

We offer accommodation to suit all tastes and budgets. Our accommodation options range from single rooms to shared rooms, from small studio apartments at a walking distance from the school, to shared student apartments just a short bus ride from the centre. All of our apartments are located in the city centre and offer the wonderful cultural and social experience of the Roman way of life.

The course fees listed on our website are inclusive of course-related lessons, materials, teaching practice, assessments, certificates, references, lifetime job assistance and more. We have no hidden costs or extra charges so the prices you see on the site are the prices you will pay.

If you are at least 18 years of age and speak English fluently, you are eligible to apply for the course. The application is brief and we will send you a prompt reply.

Apply to take our TEFL course in Rome and soon you could be training to teach EFL in Italy's capital. However, training in Rome doesn’t mean you have to stay in Italy; if you would like to move on after the course we can help you find a job almost anywhere in the world.

The School

The ITTT training centre in Rome is located in a pleasant, modern building with comfortable classrooms. The school is fully equipped with internet, TV and video facilities, whiteboards and a wide range of teaching resource materials.

The school building is conveniently situated in close proximity to the Vatican and a subway/metro line which provides easy access to all other areas of historic Rome. In the immediate vicinity of the school there is a wide choice of restaurants, cafes, bars, internet cafes and shops.

The school’s internet is available for use by the students at all times and phone and fax facilities can also be used with prior approval from the School Manager.

Optional extra: Italian Language Courses in Rome

This is an optional extra to the TEFL course and cannot be taken as a stand-alone course. Every program starts with 4 weeks of intensive Italian language training in small groups with students from around the world. This is a fully accredited course and is provided by one of the top Italian language schools in Italy. The school is recognized by the Italian Ministry of Education and has been offering high quality Italian tuition for many years. Though many of the students who attend this course are from the US and Western Europe, students can be from a wide range of other countries, which helps to provide you with a stimulating multi- cultural experience.

Italian training is available for all ability levels and your Italian skills will be assessed before starting your course to ensure that you are placed in the level most appropriate to your language abilities. It may also be possible to extend the period of your Italian course beyond the 4 weeks but that should be discussed and agreed with our staff prior to commencement of the course.

Please note in the "additional comments" section of the application form if you wish to participate in the Italian language course.

Accommodation

ITTT is pleased to be able to offer our students comfortable and well-equipped accommodation options for our TEFL course in Rome, all at very attractive rates.

Apartment Accommodation in Rome

There are two main options for accommodation during your TEFL course in Rome. Option 1 is our most popular and consists of a private room within an apartment shared with a local landlord or landlady. While you will have your own private room, the general living areas will be shared, although some apartments do include a private bathroom.

Option 2 is a room in an apartment shared with other students on the course. The apartments used in both options are comfortably furnished, clean and are situated towards the outskirts of the beautiful, historic centre of Rome, yet within a short journey of the school. In the area surrounding the apartments there is no shortage of excellent restaurants, cafes and entertainment facilities, all at more reasonable prices than you would expect to pay in the city centre.

An airport greeting service is available on the Friday before the TEFL course start date, between 11:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. however, this is only available from Rome Fiumicino International Airport (please note there are two international airports in Rome), so you may wish to plan your arrival accordingly.

The accommodation is available from the Friday before the course starts, until the Sunday after the end of the course. If you intend to arrive in Rome before the accommodation is available, ITTT can help you to find reasonably priced accommodation in a good location.
