Use The Gi Bill To Get Tefl Certification

Gaining a TEFL certification online is now the most popular option among our course trainees worldwide. If you were to ask every trainee why they chose an online course you would get many different answers, but one that most people mention is the convenience of being able to complete the training from any location you choose. As long as you have an internet connection there is nothing stopping you from studying at home, during breaks from work, or while traveling. The other main benefit of online study is the high level of flexibility involved. ITTT online TEFL courses have no fixed timetable of study and no set times when you have to be online, you decide for yourself when and how much you study. It is entirely up to you.

If you plan to teach in your home country or you are yet to decide on a location, taking an online TEFL course might be a good way to start as it offers a flexible and convenient route towards certification. How does an online TEFL course work? How does an in-class TEFL course work? How does a combined TEFL course work? How will I receive my TEFL certification? If you have a specific destination for teaching in mind it is often best to head there or to a nearby location to complete an in-class TEFL course. Following this path will allow you to find a suitable job in your preferred area and you will be more than ready to start teaching as soon as your course is complete. The third option is a combined TEFL course that tackles all the theory of teaching online and then concludes with a...  [Read more]

If you enroll on a TEFL or TESOL certification course with ITTT you get to decide which acronym you have printed on your certificate. Either TEFL or TESOL is fine as they are used interchangeably throughout much of the English language teaching world. However, if you have a clear plan as to where you want to work, it is worth doing a bit of research to see which of the two is more commonly used in your chosen destination. If most employers are asking for TEFL qualified teachers in their job adverts then it makes sense to go with that option, and vice versa if TESOL certificates are more common.

While traditional teaching degrees span several years focusing on subject expertise and pedagogical skills, TEFL courses compact this knowledge into a shorter time frame, often around 120 hours. EFL teaching is unique because it grants individuals the chance to enter the teaching field more swiftly compared to conventional teacher training. However, the condensed format means intensive learning, so commitment and dedication are paramount for successful completion. There are a number of ways in which TEFL certification can be obtained and these fall into three different categories. Online courses: Onsite courses: Combined or Hybrid courses: Conclusion As the name implies these courses are done via a computer or similar device. As they are online they can be completed from anywhere in the...  [Read more]

  The teaching idea covered here is one that would be particularly appropriate for more advanced English language learners, those who can use different tenses accurately. The activity is a board game that focuses on comparing and contrasting the tenses, focusing on the Present Perfect and the Present Perfect Continuous. Each student takes a turn at rolling the dice and moving around the board. For example a student could land on a square that says "Something you have been learning for a long time." An appropriate answer for the student could be "I have been learning English for a long time." The next student takes a turn and could land on a square that says "A beautiful place you have visited." This time the student could use the Present Perfect rather than the Present Perfect...  [Read more]

  Here the teacher gives a brief overview of the uses of the 'going to' future tense. This tense is formed: Subject + verb to be "am/is/are" + going to + base verb. The two uses for the 'going to' future are: To talk about future plans/ intentions made before speaking. They are going to watch a film. Predictions based on evidence. (Looking at dark clouds overhead) It's going to rain. The future tenses represent just one part of the grammar covered by ITTT's TEFL certification courses. ITTT's courses can be taken fully online, in-class or a combination of the two. Visit us at the link above to find a TEFL course that suits you.

Register now & get certified to teach english abroad!   Do you confuse the two words "so" and "such"? This article will explain the differences clearly with helpful examples.   To learn this English Grammar let’s look at the meaning of So and Such. For Example: “Sally is so nice.

I feel bad for him, he works overtime every day. He has so little free time. *We don’t use SUCH this way. Bill...  [Read more]

Linda Dunsmore Alumni Experiences When approaching formal and non-formal language it's imperative to keep in mind that people are by nature designed to be different, therefore arguing which is more important is a waste of time.

  This video covers the difference between 'overdo' and 'overdue'. As these two words have a similar pronunciation and spelling, their usage is often confused. 'Overdue' describes something that is past a due date or past a scheduled time, for example: I need to pay all my overdue bills to avoid a late fee. 'Overdo', on the other hand, is used when speaking about doing something to an excessive degree, for example: Don't overdo the salt in this recipe or it will taste bad.

Mark Crocker Destinations Just as there are many countries around the world where you can choose to live and work as an EFL teacher, there are also many different reasons that motivate people to actually want to teach English abroad. For some, it is to explore new cultures or to leave behind the predictable 9 to 5 existence, while for others it is simply a great way of earning money for travel or to pay off student loans. "Earning big money is not that important. I prefer natural beauty and fascinating culture, particularly if it's a little off the beaten track." "I'm looking for my first EFL teaching job, but I still want to earn a good salary that also comes with extra benefits." "I'm not keen on roughing it.

There’s only a handful of cities in the world that truly deserve ‘must visit’ status and Hanoi is certainly one of them. While most people can only dream about a fleeting trip to Hanoi – if they’re lucky – ‘living like a local’ and working as EFL teacher in this magnificent city is a realistic proposition for anyone with a sense of adventure. Hanoi is Vietnam’s capital city and the seat of government. It’s noticeably smaller than Ho Chi Minh City in the south, but the pace of life is similarly frenetic. While Ho Chi Minh City is often referred to as Vietnam’s ‘engine room’, Hanoi is more of a ‘grand old lady’. It’s tough to pin down what makes Hanoi such a special place. Is it because there’s history, culture and art on display in seemingly every street...  [Read more]
