Teaching Ideas
The best things I have learned as a teacher and taking the 470H TESOL Professional Package are patience, persistence, and management of handling students. With this course, I found that I felt much more confident in areas such as classroom management and planning lessons but this is probably due to my own experiences and previous jobs and volunteering work. With the TEFL course, you can focus on your areas of weakness which are a good plus point.
