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 found a good number of useful practice exercises for my learners here. Most of them find the second conditional and the third conditional the most confusing because of the similarities in past verb forms and modal verbs associated with the past. Reported speech is usually a bit tricky when it comes to explaining the shift in adverbs of time and place too. I will definitely use the suggestions here in my lessons.In this Unit I have learnt about the 2 receptive skills which are reading and listening. I understand that sometimes we use reading and listening for different reasons, sometimes as a purpose and other times for entertainment. I see now it is important to choose topics which will be of interest to the students, and keep the topics varied, this will keep there attention and make the lessons more enjoyable for them.
