A RAPIDLY GROWING SCHOOL IN EXOTIC SUNNY EAST JAVA SEEKING QUALIFIED TEACHERS

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.

 

By virtue of this unit, I know how to extract the necessary material for teaching students. The structure of the English language is broad and sometimes it is very difficult to understand how to properly choose a vocabulary and grammar structures for a particular lesson. And the content of Unit 7 was very helpful. It was useful to brush up on the techniques and varieties of building lesson patterns, such as \"Boomerang\Auxiliary verbs are usually easy to teach because they are invariable and have a clear purpose. Phrasal verbs have proven more difficult in my experience because there is no such structure in Asian languages and the meaning can be completely different depending on the preposition or adverb used. For the passive, the biggest difficulty is selecting the right verb tenses and it is similar in that sense to reported speech.
