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 have always enjoyed teaching children, yet after this unit I am intrigued to start teaching some students of different ages. I enjoy the fact that I have a working background and therefore may be able to teach some business english at some point to. This unit basically shows us, as teachers, our different target markets, and how to correctly teach the english language according to their different backgrounds, levels, cultures etc.I have learnt that you can always revert back to more old school teaching aids and equipment. Whilst DVD/Videos and OHP are not commonly used in most classrooms, they can be very useful. When creating my lesson plan I thought I would make my own visual aid and draw a superhero with the help of the students. This could be achieved using a OHP, I/We could gradually build my character in layers and finally project the finished product!
