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 went through the different kinds of present tense grammar, including simple present tense, present perfect tense, present continuous tense, and combinations thereof. This is important information to be familiar with as a teacher instructing learners who are studying English as a second language, as they often have specific grammar questions that native speakers could struggle to answer concisely.I have remembered some topics I had already studied in the past and learnt some others. I think this is really important, not because we have to know all the structures and rules by heart, but certainly this will help us have the knowledge that is required to teach English. We have to be aware that improving our language skills will always be necessary when teaching, not only English , but any other subject
