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.

This Unit covered past tenses, before we covered the tenses but it is specific to past tenses. This is important as I recall when I was younger past tense and present tense was confusing for me. This is a very helpful unit to remind teachers what to expect from learners who are struggling with past and present tense. It also provides innovative ideas for activities to use in the classroom.This is an interesting unit as I feel that some teachers would believe that accuracy takes precedence in all situations. I feel for students to gain confidence we need to encourage fluency using a variety of fun and challenging activities (while monitoring accuracy) and noting points down for future learning, and when their confidence has built up, we then make accuracy a greater priority.
