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 emphasizes listening and reading as two equally important receptive skills. It then outlines specialist skills that make it easier read and listen such as predictive skills, skimming, scanning, etc. It also touches on the topics to focus on based on the demographic and student interest. The tasks should also center around the topics, making sure that it is engaging for the students.This unit on troubleshooting provided general guidance on how to handle specific, difficult situations. I found most helpful the section on how to approach the first day in class. The sections on large classes and warmers I think are also very helpful. Addressing the different levels within a class seems difficult and I feel more prepared to address that issue after having done this lesson.
