Teacher Training

Are you interested in training to become a Bates Teacher? Generally it is recommended that you take a course of one-to-one lessons for at least six months and to have experienced improvement in your own vision before deciding definitely to train, however individual applicants are considered on a case by case basis.

Note that all courses in any field will vary in quality, and Bates teacher training is no exception. It is worth checking to make sure the course you wish to attend will provide the kind of education and qualification you require. All courses listed on these pages are not official Bates Association approved courses, unless otherwise indicated.
