Below you can read feedback from an ITTT graduate regarding one section of their online TEFL certification course. Each of our online courses is broken down into concise units that focus on specific areas of English language teaching.

 

Knowing the importance of how to choose a text or audio for students and teach them how to read or listen based on the type of the text or audio or their levels will help students comfortably focus on learning without being confused. Pre-teaching vocabulary is also the other benefit on their understanding and later help them to be able to talk about it practically in activate part of the lesson.I was amazed to see the difference it made when the teacher changed his attitudes right from the start. It affected the students behaviour right away. It resulted in a higher level of participation, higher motivation and a more enjoyable teaching environment. The fact that the teacher also used mime and gesture to have the students call out vocabulary words help built a better rapport with them.
