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 was very helpful in describing the parts of speech that make up each sentence. One specific item that really helped me was the location of adverbs in a sentence. Example: \"He ate his lunch quickly.\" I would have normally written it as \"He quickly ate his lunch.\" I also wasn't familiar with adverbs of degree or frequency. I will definitely continue to refresh and refine the course content covered in this unit.I really enjoyed learning about different styles of lesson planning. I taught abroad before but I and the other teachers were not given a detailed breakdown of teaching strategies, especially for student at different levels. Thus I had to learn how to engage the students via trial and error. However, this unit was very helpful and showed be new ways of keeping students engaged and keeping a steady flow in the classroom.
