Sab Will - Course Director

Sab was born in Scotland but grew up near London and has been working in English teaching in France since 1993. He obtained the Cambridge CELTA (Certificate in English Language Teaching to Adults) in 1994 and the Cambridge DELTA (Diploma in...) in 1997. Sab has worked for many of the most prestigious teaching establishments in France, such as the British Council, Chamber of Commerce, the Mairie of Paris, the British Institute - University of London in Paris) and several of the Paris universities.

He has also lived in Greece, where he jointly set up and ran a successful English school (frontisterio).

Sab has wide experience of teaching all levels of general English to children and adults, as well as being a sought-after business English trainer and consultant working with some of the largest companies in France such as Renault, Volkswagen, Total, Aérospaciale, EDF, Carrefour, France Télécom and many others.

He also runs two English teaching web sites, Hotch Potch English and Will Power English, is a Cambridge University Press author, has edited the TESOL France magazine  and is a respected reviewer of ELT titles. Sab also enjoys speaking internationally on teaching children, business English, and the intelligent integration of internet technologies into the teaching of English.

One of the most stimulating and rewarding aspects of Sab's work (he says) is training teachers at TEFL Paris. Sab lives and breathes his passion for English teaching and also inevitably brings to his teaching and training aspects of his other life as a recognised Paris street photographer, abstract artist and poet who finds endless inspiration in the everyday sights and sounds he witnesses during his wanderings through the city, hence the name of his artistic web site, Paris Set Me Free.

Maya - Unknown Foreign Language Teacher

Unfortunately we are unable to give you much information about Maya as she teaches our highly confidential unknown foreign language sessions which trainees tell us are one of the most memorable aspects of the TEFL Certificate course.

What we can tell you, however, is that she is a competent and highly appreciated teacher and will help you understand just what it's like to be a language learner again... which will enable you to understand your own students better!

Eloise - Assistant Teacher

Eloise is a school teacher in the French national education system and gives one of the demonstration lessons (the other is given by Sab) as well as helping out on critiquing and other aspects of the course from time to time.
