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.

 

The unit covered the various types of evaluation methodologies that are used to assess the proficiency of English in students. While some of these are conducted by English language teachers, most students – particularly the advanced kinds – will want to gain a professional certificate that they can add to their CV. Knowledge of the more popularly accepted certificate tests is therefore quite necessary for an ESL teacher.This is a very complex and difficult lesson. It is quite difficult to distinguish one from the other. It is very abstract. Although I understand it, in general, the specific terms or categories are hard to memorize. I think more examples are necessary, with an explanation in detail about the function of that example. Please show the right way, and then show the wrong way. Explain why one is right and the other is not. One by one.
