    "I feel very inspired by this course and it's all thanks to a great instructor."
    - V.P., Philapdelphia, PA
    "I would definitely recommend this course."
    - K.Z., Bryn Mawr, PA
    "It's short, effective and prepares you for the reality of teaching."
    - E.S., Coatesville, PA
    Oxford Seminars provides an excellent value for the money and the instruction and materials are top notch.
    - M.P., Philadelphia, PA
    I learned so much during this seminar, and I realize that I have much more to learn. The instructor has motivated me to continue my studies with a focus on linguistics. I thank her for making me aware of all I did not and do not know in the area of ESL education and teaching.
    - D.I., Yeadon, PA
    Our instructor was amazing. I never doubted her expertise and she had such confidence in her instruction. I felt that I learned just as much from simply watching her teach as I did from the information she taught us. I wish I could sit in on some of her ESL teaching. I think she brings a lot to the table.
    - L.C., Phoenixville, PA
    Although fast-paced, it gives you enough supplementary material to practice on your own and learn at your pace outside of the class.
    - W.O., Philadelphia, PA
    If you are looking to enrich the lives of others and yourself from a great teacher, this is it!
    - A.K., Norristown, PA
    Our Instructor knows so much about teaching ESL, and I loved that she showed us a video so we could see and understand a real-live ESL learning group. I felt very comfortable learning in her class."

    I so enjoyed the six class sessions. The instructor was easy to listen to and learn from. The group of adults was a unique cross section, all ages and occupations, yet we became friends. This blending of a group doesn't often happen. Great memories...new friends!
