What Do We Need to Know About Cultural Sensitivity? - TEFL Blog
Elizaveta Pachina
Alumni Experiences
A multicultural world urgently needs a culturally sensitive educational system. In most countries around, schools are filled with students who come from different cultures. The variety of cultural backgrounds of students in schools is beneficial for the academic community as it contributes to their different experiences that provide all students with the opportunity to learn about different aspects of life.

How Сan We Decrease Teacher Talking Time and Why Should We? - TEFL Blog
Elizaveta Pachina
Teaching Ideas
Have you ever had the experience of saying a fictional character's name out loud to someone for the first time and they don't know whom you are talking about even though you're reading the same book? I have and it was a confusing feeling. The thing I have learned about English is that to truly learn it, you need to speak it. When we learn English by speaking it out loud we can avoid the mistakes of mispronouncing words that we have only ever read in our heads. This is the primary reason I think we need to decrease teacher speaking time in class and dramatically increase student speaking time when we are teaching our students English.

At ITTT we offer a range of certificate legalization options
ITTT offers a full range of certificate legalization and authentication options. Some course graduates are informed that their certificate should be authenticated, legalized, apostilled or validated. Unfortunately, there doesn’t seem to be a consistent or clear definition of exactly what is required here, so we suggest several options. You should present these options to the people or authorities that are requesting the certificate additions, so they can advise you which one would be acceptable to them.
The first verification method is quick and easy, and is free of charge. Your employer or the local education authority may only need to verify that the certificate is genuine, in which case ITTT offers employers a certificate verification service for ITTT course graduates.

3 Reasons We Can’t Learn Languages Without Grammar - TEFL Blog
Elizaveta Pachina
Alumni Experiences
Admittedly, learning grammar may not be the most appealing part when learning a new language. It usually connects with conjugations, tenses and in some languages, the position of the verbs, for example, German. Grammar itself can cause a huge problem for both the teacher and students to carry out the language class smoothly. People might argue that unconscious imitation is the best approach to learning a language since it is the most natural way. I would like to say this is the idealist method. Truth speaking, not many students are able to enjoy the bilingual or even multi-lingual background. Moreover, even with the mother tongue, people will encounter grammar courses in school. This essay focuses on the necessities and importance of learning grammar... [Read more]

Why and How Should We Learn Teaching Skills? - TEFL Blog

Teaching Ideas
It is easy for anyone to profess knowledge in a language, but teaching it is an entirely different story. When one doesn't even know the complexities of one's learning process, understanding how another person can come to learn may be a walk in the dark or frustrating to either the student or teacher and the results of a teacher unwilling to become a good one are unattractive.

Should we teach culture in the EFL classroom? - ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ TEFL FAQs
Absolutely. Language is deeply intertwined with culture, serving as its vocal representation. While mastering vocabulary and grammar is crucial, to fully understand the essence of English, EFL students should immerse themselves in the culture of English-speaking nations. This entails exploring cultural facets like music, films, literature, culinary traditions, and even fashion. Incorporating cultural elements not only enriches EFL lessons but also resonates with students, making the learning process more engaging and comprehensive.

Learning English in Korea: Which Mountain Do We Climb First? - TEFL Blog

Teaching Ideas
When I was a university student, my roommate was from Busan, South Korea. I loved spending time with him. We became incredibly close friends, and I also became close to the other students who came through the same foreign exchange program as he did. I helped them learn English regularly, checking and proofreading essays and explaining phrases to them. They left the United States after one semester, but they had already introduced me to other Korean students who would be there for two more years. I enjoyed learning about their culture and the cultural differences that we had. I also learned a lot about the obstacles that my friends faced in learning English, and worked to help them overcome those obstacles.
Perhaps the most prominent of these obstacles... [Read more]

Why are Games Powerful and Why do We Play Them in Class? - TEFL Blog
