Accreditation
Our training courses are fully accredited by two of the most recognizable ESL organizations worldwide: Cambridge English and International House. Additionally, our courses are recognized by Poland’s Ministry of Education as diploma-level training courses. In order to maintain the highest possible standards, our courses are regularly reviewed and assessed by the above accreditation bodies to ensure that all standards are met.
In addition to having (at minimum) Master’s Degree-level qualifications in Teaching English as a Foriegn Language and six years of classroom ESL teaching experience, all of our instructors have passed the rigorous individual assessments required to become Cambridge English and International House licensed teacher trainers.
What this means is that, upon completion of our program, you’ll be armed with one of the most prestigious ESL qualifications in the world. The accredited certificate is certified by Ofqual (the official regulatory department of the UK government) as a Level 5 Training Course, or the equivalent level of a Diploma in Education. This meets (and exceeds) the qualification standards required by virtually all reputable schools and other TEFL employers in Europe and around the world.
Why Poland?
Poland is a gorgeous country filled with medieval castles and town squares, breathtaking mountains and lakes, picturesque cobblestone streets, and culture and nightlife that puts much of Western Europe to shame. Oh yeah, and did we mention…it’s affordable.
Not only is the country incredibly beautiful and full of culture, but it also ranks as one of the most livable countries in Europe. The infrastructure is modern and developed, the streets are safe and crime-free, and the population of major cities is largely proficient in English.
Poland's teaching job market is perhaps the biggest and fastest growing in Europe, with more and more language schools opening everyday and looking for qualified teachers.
Just a warning: Many people come to Poland to teach for a semester and end up staying for years. It's just one of those places!

TESTIMONIALS
English Wizards has always supported me, if I had a question it was answered and if I needed help it was always offered. The internship was intense but I had such a good time with my fellow teachers doing it. We all had a sense of comradery among us. Between learning new skills and practicing on real-life students, we socialized and saw the sites. I’m now living in the heart of Krakow, my room is small and I work a lot but I expected this. I wanted to come to Europe, I wanted to work as a teacher and I wanted to meet new people. I’ve done all of that and more.
The city and the English Wizard Program was very enjoyable and fulfilling. A great experience for anyone who likes to teach and wants to explore central Europe. There’s a lot of history, food, and vodka to discover in Poland. The program staff was very helpful and professional. I hope to return to the program or country one day in the future.
English Wizards has supported me all the way to success!! They have made my dream of working and living in Europe so easy and enjoyable! The team has placed me in some of the best schools in Krakow and they continue to ensure that I get a chance at even better opportunities! I couldn’t be happier!
The English Wizards team has answered every single one of my many questions and made me feel extremely comfortable with my transition to living in Poland. Many thanks!
