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 unit is about lesson planning. I have learnt that lesson planning allows for a teacher to keep a record of classroom activities. Lesson planning not only helps teachers to keep track of the goals they set for the students, but it also allows for teachers make note of areas where they can improve. Moreover, I have learnt that it is important to make a lesson plan flexible so that adjustments can be throughout the class.Teachers must be many different things. Not just an educator, but also manage and motivate students to learn while building good rapport. A good teacher is understanding of the different levels of students and cares about the students and learning process over teaching styles. Many students will have various reasons to learn a new language, but one thing for sure is that a motivated student will always be a better learner.
