•  "I’d always wanted to travel somewhere like Vietnam and make a difference in the lives of local people. The skills I picked up doing the TESOL course with AVSE-TESOL made it possible for me to live my dream. To Peter Goudge, Garry, Violet & the rest of the team at AVSE-TESOL - you’re all champions!"

•  "There’s no doubt about it - if you want a career as an ESL teacher, AVSE-TESOL is the best place in this part of the world to gain the TESOL certification & hands-on experience you need."
Biancia, Canada

•  "I did the TESOL course in Ho Chi Minh City with AVSE-TESOL. It was brilliant! I learnt a lot, made great friends and got a teaching job as promised."
Smithy, Australia

•  "International recognition, job guarantee once you’ve completed the TESOL – TEFL course - and some of the nicest people you’ll ever meet. You won’t find a better deal!"

•  "I recently completed my TESOL certification at AVSE. I’m a retired American and decided to travel the world. However, upon visiting Vietnam, I fell in love with the people and now never want to leave. I had previous teaching experience in the States and wasn’t sure how I could perform in Vietnam. AVSE gave me the foundation and actual teaching experience I needed. The job guarantee is no joke. They will come through on that promise.

One drawback about older people wishing to teach in Asia is the age discrimination that seems to be accepted as normal. But at AVSE, I felt young again! My age wasn’t a factor at all.

If you are sitting in the US and are bored, but still feel you have something to give, call Peter at AVSE and have a talk with him. He runs the show. Vietnam needs older and experienced teachers. Studying at an Australian school and being an American is no problem and will actually expand your English foundation."
Terry, USA

• An astonishingly beautiful country with a pristine coastline of over 3,000 kilometers, Vietnam truly is a jewel of South-East Asia.

• While many ESL teacher training students may traditionally have looked initially to Thailand or Singapore to get TEFL-certified and teach English in South-East Asia, more and more students and expats are now realizing Vietnam's potential in the TEFL career field, and as an amazing, authentic cultural and life experience.

• Still relatively untouched by western culture, Vietnam offers an incredible heritage that provides an invaluable insight into the Asian lifestyle.

• A vibrant city of culture and commerce, Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC) is full of pulsating energy, and a must-see destination. With a population of over 9 million people, the locals are friendly and direct people who love to laugh. You will never forget Ho Chi Minh City.
