Our goal as an organization is to support the local community and provide the opportunity to learn another language. Here on the island, speaking English, German, or French opens many doors for employment and is one of the most sought-after skills by businesses. The GLA family offers affordable, high-quality classes to ensure that anyone who wishes to improve their language skills has the opportunity to do so. We strive to create a welcoming, fun, and friendly environment at all times, making the most of the individuality of each team member and student to create a unique place to study and work.

Accreditation & Quality Assurance
The TEFL Academy was the world’s first TEFL course provider to receive official recognition from government regulated awarding bodies in both the USA and UK. This means when you graduate you’ll hold a globally recognised Level 3 (120hr) Certificate or Level 5 (168hr) Diploma, meaning you can find work anywhere and apply for jobs immediately.
