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.

 

The contrast between lesson one and lesson two was striking. I felt uncomfortable watching the first lesson, and was cringing at the teacher's attitude towards his students. As a teacher myself, I cannot imagine teaching my students in such a way. This two videos demonstrated how important and influential the teacher's attitude, with which he or she comes into the class, can affect the student's learning experience.The content of this unit is a presentation of possible problem situations and possible solutions. Many different scenarios with possible problems related to first lessons, different student levels, large classes, use of native language, reluctant students and listening to texts in a class. I feel that I have learned some possible problems I can face in the future, and how they can be delt with in various scenarios.
