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.

 

I found the content of the unit very good for me.I feel have learnt a little more about future tenses, but remembering them is another thing. I did get confused with question twenty and went blank for some time. I still need to practice the tenses in the coming future. I realize that if I get confused by seeing the present tenses mixed with the future tenses a little strange the students will be even more so.In this unit I learned a little bit about classroom dynamics and how the teacher can manipulate it. Among other things, the unit contains descriptions and examples of how the teacher's tone and intensity of voice, teacher's position in class, and students' seating arrangements may help maintain discipline in the classroom. I also learned that to be a good teacher we don't need to have an extrovert personality.
