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 is a technical unit covering the parts of speech in english grammar. The unit covers nouns, pronouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, gerunds, articles, and prepositions. Each part of speech is broken up into smaller parts and discussed further. Personally this unit helped me better describe the difference between some parts of speech than can be confused. For example, adjectives and adverbs, or pronouns and possessive adjectives.During this unit I have observed a stark contrast between the two lessons presented via video download. The videos show that a teachers attitude and implementation of techniques learnt from previous units ensure the students are successful in understanding the lesson point and are engaged throughout the lesson It was very clear that the attitude, smile and kindness shown by the teacher in the second lesson affected the students greatly.
