Over the course of their sessions, instructors introduce children to a range of fun activities (singing, dancing, drawing, etc.) and acquire invaluable professional skills to teach English as a second language. Furthermore, working with a French family is a great chance for instructors to improve their French and gain a first-hand insight into French culture.

YOUR CONTRACT

Your contract is a CDI (contrat à durée indéterminée), which means there is no fixed end date. It is the safest type of contract in France. In accordance with French law, 10% of your pay will be put aside for you as “congés payés” (paid holiday). This will be paid to you during the school holidays to compensate for the absence of scheduled sessions in these periods.

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 section overviews troubleshooting issues in classrooms. It begins with introductions of the teacher to students and how to build relationships with the class. It also provides ideas on how to address issues of mixed language levels of students by pairing weak and strong students together. Provided in this section are examples of warmers or ice breakers, activities and games, etc.Working through this unit has given me a lot of insight and ideas too future lesson plans, I'm really excited to put into practise what this unit has taught me. And also find it interesting how all this falls into place in a lesson. I'v also realised how important it is to implement what iv learnt in this unit in each class and the impact and importance it has in each lesson students.
