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.

 

I really liked this Unit as it gave me a lot of ideas to use in the classroom. I think, if used correctly, the use of technology can be an invaluable tool to support and supplement more traditional resources. I think that technology should not be overused though, particularly the use of videos (e.g. showing movies) as students(particularly younger students) may start to expect it and pay less attention when not used.Phonemic learning is another way for students to sound out vocabulary and enhance their pronunciation capabilities. This will install confidence in the student as their vocabulary grows. It is imperative that correct English pronunciation be taught at the outset of the language lesson. This has to be done eventually, so it may as well be done up front, even if that means it will take extra time within the lessons.
