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 final unit talks about different Cultural issues that I should be aware of if in case I will be teaching in different region. With this being said, in all fairness, I've been to Thailand twice and yes all those gestures mentioned in the Test in this unit were all true...specially Patting someone's head in Thailand, that's really disrespectful for them because in Thailand, the most important part of the body is the head.....This unit helped me to clarify a lot of the ESA structure. Both videos are actually interestingly funny. Watching the videos we are able to walk step by step with the teacher through out the lesson, thinking about what he was doing and how he was linking each phase of the lesson, and also whether he was successful or not. Hopefully after this unit I'll be able to think more clearly about the concepts of an ESA lesson structure.
