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.

 

One of the most creative and artistic part of being English teacher is to create an interesting, full of knowledge and activities lesson. And different course books and materials are definitely can help with it. There are so many of them nowadays to choose. Lots of authentic material we may find online and use them during our lessons . The main idea is to learn how to combine them to make a lesson as productive as possible.This unit explains the four present tenses: present simple, present continuous, present perfect and present perfect continuous. It explains when each tense should be used and why. As a native speaker, one ussually relies on what sounds correct without knowing the reason for using a specific tense. As an EFL teacher, it is important to know to know when specific tenses are used in order to clearly convey it to one's students.
