Graduate English Teaching Certificate Do you want to issue certificates to your students? Over the years, ITTT has focused on providing quality training to future TEFL and TESOL teachers, preparing them to teach English as a foreign language. We have been asked by a number of course graduates if, as qualified ITTT teachers, they can award certificates independently to the students they teach. ITTT has addressed this by providing certificates that graduates can issue to their students. These certificates, which can be purchased in packs of 10, 25, 50 or 100, allow the teacher to fill in the student’s name, class level and the number of hours of study, and are signed by the graduate. Each certificate is uniquely numbered, with a place on the certificate to enter the teacher’s ITTT...  [Read more]

Wed, 11 Mar 2020 Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas Teaching One-to-One vs. Teaching in Class The bulk part of the teacher's work is to adjust the learning material to the needs, goals, and interests of students.
