Moreover, we are accredited by the Polish Association for Standards in English. We closely cooperate with the British Council in Warsaw and the Bell schools in Poland. We teach approx. 1500 students per semester of different age groups: children, teenagers, young adults and adults at all levels. We run a variety of Cambridge examination courses: YLE, PET, FCE, CAE, CPE and BEC, IELTS. Our method is based on the assumptions of the Communicative Approach combined with the Dual Co-Teaching System (Polish and English teachers teaching each group). We introduce Educational Kinesiology as a supportive technique.
In 2003 we were ranked 1st amongst language schools in Warsaw by the Newsweek Poland magazine. All new teachers undergo an initial training and receive methodological guidance and support throughout the whole semester. The dual system is based on a detailed programme enabling teachers to coordinate their work with each other.

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.

 

It was important to be reminded of the fact that teacher time should be kept to a minimum, and that students should be using the language as much as possible. I also appreciate emphasizing the difference between mistakes and errors, and knowing when to correct these, and when to let them go so as not to interrupt the flow of thought for the student. Correcting every single error is not conducive to student learning.This unit covers common problem situations and gives numerous solutions for them. There are many helpful suggestions in this unit the tips I found most interesting are using the first lesson to establish rapport instead of a lesson of intense teaching, using warmers at the start of the lesson, dealing with large classes and how to teach reluctant students. This unit was a short but extremely informative and practical.
