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 unit the different present tenses have been covered, such as Present simple, Present Continous, Present perfect and Present perfect continous. I have learnt how to use these tenses correctly and what they are usually used to talk about. Also the unit has covered common mistakes used with each tense and different activities that can be applied to make it easier for the students to understand and learn the grammar rules.After reading module 6 I found out many cultural issues that each teacher should be aware of when teaching in different regions of the world. The most interesting part was the one that tells us about different ways of seeking and applying for the job. It was also interesting to find out about the options for my future professional development as well as various professional associations I can joi aftere completing this course.
