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.

 

In this chapter I learned that vocabulary can be easy or difficult depends on the students similarity on it's own language and the world that the student already know. In language you have know the meaning of the word. and in grammar you have to learn how or when to use , it's forms and patterns, how to speak and write it. And I learned that you have to teach the students the correct spelling and pronunciation.The unit basically dealt with what is expected of us ESL Teachers, what we should expect from the children we teach and some students' background characteristics that should influence what we do in the classroom. I have learnt that, there is a complex relationship between learners and teachers and as such, teachers need to be knowledgeable about this relationship in order to have a fruitful teaching career.
