The name Nepal ushers in a whole host of frames that are shot in colour, blessed with a mystic divinity and impregnated with adventures that lurk under an apparent composure. Nepal packs in abundance culture, religion, wildlife and mountains. Nepal can be perceived through its stunning views of the Himalayas; one can feel the warmth of this country as its regales in countless festivals round the year; the freshness of the forests and national parks that swarm with wildlife can almost be inhaled; the murmurs of the pilgrims and chants resound in every corner of the temples and shrines that are spread all over the cities and villages of Nepal; the real taste of Nepal can be enjoyed through trekking and hiking – the activity that unfolds the hidden treasure of the naturally endowed Nepal. In a true sense, Nepal is a celebration of senses. Therefore, a TESOL Program set by ATI in the birthplace of Buddha not only enhances teaching skills but also enlightens the ESL teacher with its nature’s bounty and cultural diversity.

The capital of Nepal, Kathmandu brims over with life. It is the city of temples of historic and artistic value. But the city is not archaic in life style. Kathmandu lives very much in the present and provides its visitors with all the modern-day comfort and amenities that are considered basic. A non-Asian visitor would be fervent to explore the streets of Kathmandu lavished with ancient architectures, temples, handicrafts, artifacts, antiques and a hoard of similar other exotic stuff. The museums and royal palaces bring alive the fading grandeur of the monarchy. And, on a clear-sky day, it is also a good idea to relax and sit back to enjoy the Himalayas that pervade the skyline of Kathmandu. No place can be more appropriate than Kathmandu to host a TESOL Program as the city has the quality to balance the classroom rigour with its psychedelic vitality of life. If traveling and studying TEFL followed by teaching, as an ESL professional, are there in your itinerary, Nepal is the perfect destination for you.
