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 dissects the different forms of past tenses, which are past simple, past continuous, past perfect and past perfect continuous. It shows different scenarios where each type is appropriate for use. The unit also taught me the reasoning why we use these past tenses, as it was all subconscious to me before hand. For example we use past simple when we are describing a completed past action; \"I finished yesterday.\"As a VERY recent High School Graduate, I am not sure if I am qualified to to judge this unit. However, I have learned a little bit about the process that my teacher's have followed for the past 13 years and I have earned a greater respect for all they have had to know. It os not just about the class or information that you must teach them, teaching is also about knowing your class and how to teach them. Quite enlightening!
