The International Teacher Training Organization is able provide accommodation for TEFL / TESL / TESOL trainees at a very competitive rate.
The accommodation we provide is clean and comfortable. All home-stay families have been carefully selected and their properties inspected. All accommodation is available from 1 day before the course to 1 day after the course.

• Option 1:

A home-stay with a Mexican host family. For a fee of $100 USD per week, you receive three meals a day and have your own private bedroom. Home-stays are usually 30 minutes bus journey from the Training Center. Guadalajara, as most metropolitan cities, has residential areas and commercial areas. Because of our privileged location in the Downtown Historical Area, we do not have host homes that are within walking distance. Our Area is mostly historical buildings, restaurants, stores, etc. The residential areas, where our homes are located, are about 30 minutes away from our school by public transportation. We select families that live in safe, pleasant neighborhoods, with easy access to public transportation.

* This option is particularly useful for those who wish to practice their Spanish.
