Granada English College General Information: • We teach 12 months a year in our five classroom building. We have 1 hour and 2 hour classes, M-Th, mornings, afternoons and evenings, and 3 hour classes on Saturday mornings and afternoons. We start new classes every month and currently teach Levels 1 through 6. • Our mission is to provide Granadinos with skills to compete in the tourism and related industries, and to own/operate their own businesses. • Our teachers love teaching and are enthused about improving the educational and economic opportunities for the people of Granada. • We use the excellent “Interchange, 3rd Edition” textbooks and class audio CDs by Cambridge University Press. They have proven very useful for the novice and advanced teacher alike. We have 4’ x 4’ white boards, CD players, TV, DVD player and a very clean, well-maintained, newly restored Colonial building. The building is not air-conditioned and the city of Granada does have temporary electrical and water outages. We have a new, battery backup system that keeps our lights, fans and CD players on during city wide blackouts. • The average length of EFL teaching experience by our Granadino teachers is three years. • Most of our native speaking EFL teachers have several years of EFL teaching experience. Most of them have a TEFL or equivalent certification. • Granada English College is a legal, educational company recognized by the Nicaraguan government. We have a Granada city business license and pay city and national taxes. • I (the unpaid owner/recruiter and financial provider) and our Granadina Director are highly motivated to provide Granadinos with a means to compete in a growing tourist industry and global economy. We are a negative-profit school run in a professional way. We gladly accept PayPal donations. We keep student fees low and provide a high quality of EFL teaching.
