The Many Roles of a Teacher - TEFL Blog
Elizaveta Pachina
Alumni Experiences
At the cafeteria during lunchtime, a student of mine approached and asked me, "Why did you become a teacher?" Dumbfounded by this brazen question, I did not know what to say. I could have chosen motherhood statements like "I want to make a difference in the world," "to have a positive impact on my student's lives, "or that "I love children." I ended up saying to him, "Well, I am good at teaching." However, the truth of the matter is, I needed a job and there was an opportunity so I took it. You can say it was fate that called me to be a teacher. Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine myself being a Grade 3 homeroom teacher! After having experienced a variety of jobs in my life from being a hotel banquet salesperson, a garments manager, an... [Read more]
Many Shades of the English Language - TEFL Blog

Teaching Ideas
Every language has its peculiarities, more so in the English language, which is spoken in the largest number of countries in the world. And thus has attained the status of a global language. Factors attributed to this phenomenon are many. One of the major reasons is that the Britishers had a large number of colonies which enabled them to come in contact with the inhabitants of different parts of the world.

Language is the primary medium of human social interaction, and interaction is the mean through which social relations are conducted and maintained.

How many hours do TEFL teachers teach? - ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ TEFL FAQs
It is essential to understand that your scheduled teaching hours (referred to as contact hours) won't equate to the total time you are expected to spend at school (known as contract hours). Besides teaching, many jobs involve administrative duties.
Moreover, the nature of the English teaching job you opt for will determine your classroom hours. Let's consider three typical job types.
Government and Private Schools
Corporate Teaching
Private Language Schools
Some Cultural Aspects
In most instances, overseas schools operate regular office hours. You will likely be expected at the school from Monday to Friday, around 7:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. - approximately 40 hours per week. However, your actual teaching might be limited to 20-25 hours weekly, with the remaining time dedicated to lesson... [Read more]
How many modules in a TEFL course? - ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ TEFL FAQs
Most TEFL courses currently available, including those offered by ITTT, are broken down into separate sections or modules to make the study experience as smooth and easy to digest as possible. By separating the different sections of the course into distinct areas, such as individual grammar points, various classroom skills, and lesson planning strategies, you should find it easier to move through the materials and retain all the information covered. However, as most TEFL course providers offer a wide variety of course options to suit different goals and scenarios, it is generally the case that there are no set amount of modules in a TEFL course.
At ITTT we try to ensure that our range of TEFL courses cover every possible requirement, from short-form courses suitable for volunteer teaching,... [Read more]
How many levels are there in EFL? - ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ TEFL FAQs
When researching teacher training courses it can be difficult to compare the many options available, which is why EFL course levels can be a great help. All TEFL courses can be put into certain levels that reflect their content and the level of qualification you will receive at the end of the training. This organization of courses can be a real benefit when it comes to choosing the right type of course to suit your individual situation. However, it is also important to know that there is not a single ranking system that is adopted by the whole EFL world. May individual countries and teaching organizations have their own set of course levels. Despite this, most systems are developed using similar criteria such as the type of study involved, the number of study hours, whether it is part-time... [Read more]
Why English Speaking is Difficult for Many Thai Learners - TEFL Blog
Elizaveta Pachina
Teaching Ideas
Thailand is famously known as " the land of smiles". In some situations, smiling is the way to save face or to avoid conflicts. This often includes the time when Thai people have to communicate with foreigners in English and have no idea what the other meant. They simply smile to get out of a situation instead of making the best out of it by practicing their English speaking skill. On the other hand, they build up a fear of making mistakes and avoid being in that particular circumstance in the future. As English today plays important roles in tourism and the Thai economy as a whole, still, Thai people struggle to communicate effectively. Here are some areas suggested why it is difficult for Thai learners to improve their speaking skills.

How many hours do EFL teachers teach? - ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ TEFL FAQs
Before we look at this question closely, we should first make an important distinction. The number of hours you teach in the classroom (often called contact hours) are not the same as the number of hours you will be expected to be in school, often confusingly called contract hours.
Next, it is important to appreciate that different teaching jobs have different typical hours. There are basically three types of jobs available.

Some Cultural Aspects
Most schools abroad work normal office hours so you will probably need to be in school, Monday to Friday, from 7:30 a.m. (in many Asian countries) until 4:00 p.m. This equates to around 40 hours per week. You will not have to teach for all of those hours but a typical... [Read more]

How many modules are in TEFL 120-hours? - ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ TEFL FAQs
The majority of TEFL courses now offered, including those provided by ITTT, are divided into several modules to make the learning process as streamlined and simple to assimilate as possible. You should find it simpler to navigate through the materials and retain all of the information given by segmenting the many components of the course into distinct units, such as specific grammatical issues, classroom management, and lesson planning techniques. There is generally no predetermined number of modules in a TEFL course, as the majority of TEFL course providers offer a wide range of course alternatives to fit different aims and conditions.
