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 example activities/worksheets were really nice to have and provided great ideas for future use. I also enjoyed reading the advantages and disadvantages of using the coursebook. The breakdown of authentic and created material was a good tool as well. I never considered the materials separately, do it was nice to have the breakdown and gain understanding of when and when not to use each.I enjoyed learning about the different methods and lesson plan models. I also appreciate the activity examples given. There were more specific details given in this chapter than there was the prior one and I am grateful for that. However again, with this test. The hypothetical questions are cumbersome. Direct questions are more useful to gauge if I have actually learned anything concrete.
