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.

 

In this Unit I learned about classroom management. I learned about eye contact, gestures and voice to be used with the students. I have also learned about grouping students and classroom arrangement methods. The Unit also explained teacher and student talk time and how to maintain discipline. I have understood the importance of establishing rapport with students and how to give instructions.This unit is very informative and heps to build a structure of a lesson. It helps to choose appropriate methodology. And it let to understand what activities to use in each stage of lesson to help the students use English and to learn it in appropriate way. This unit teahes how to correct errors of students, when to correct and which errors the theacher should correct and which he can pass.
