I am interested in the Oxbridge course, but, like others, don't want to end up doing a half-baked TEFL that doesn't really get respect from employers. Seems like we've heard from a few people in my situation, but nobody whose actually done the course. is Oxbridge a new organisation?

I've no experience or knowledge of Oxbridge other than the name so I can't really comment, but just to note that you might find that other schools might not (rightly or wrongly) give as much credit to the Oxbridge certificate as they would to a CELTA or Trinity, which will probably have more international recognition.

Note also that most training centres (CELTA or Trinity, etc) will also cream off their best trainees and offer them jobs afterwards IF jobs are available. I know IH Barcelona, for example, employ lots of their ex-trainees.

But, on the other hand, the IH (CELTA) course is a lot more expensive.
