what should i include in my tefl teaching syllabus? - ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ ITTT TEFL & TESOL
Creating a well-structured and comprehensive TEFL teaching syllabus is essential for ensuring that your students receive a well-rounded language learning experience. A good syllabus not only outlines the topics and skills that will be covered in the course but also provides a roadmap for both teachers and students to follow throughout the learning process.
When designing a TEFL teaching syllabus, there are several key components that you should include to ensure that your students are able to achieve their language learning goals effectively.
1. **Language Skills**: Start by outlining the four main language skills that should be covered in the course: listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Each of these skills plays a crucial role in language acquisition, so it's important to dedicate... [Read more]
What is a TEFL exam? - ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ ITTT TEFL & TESOL
First we need to define what TEFL means before looking at the various ways in which it can be examined to provide a teaching certificate. There are various locations in which a TEFL exam can be taken and different methods of instruction, these will also be considered.
The acronym TEFL stands for Teaching English as a Foreign Language and it can be used in any situation where the English language is being taught to non-native English speakers. Technically speaking, TEFL refers to teaching English in countries where English is not the native language. It is a term used mainly in the UK and is used interchangeably with the equivalent USA term TESOL.

Tefl testimonials - Pronunciation And Phonology/phonemic Spellings Part 2 - ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ ITTT
"As mentioned before our four words here all are similar in using the ?b? and ?t? sounds at the end. So we know that those phonemes will be used in spelling each one of those words phonetically. Now what we're left to do is assign a phoneme for our vowel sounds. So if we analyze the word, it's ?e? as in bet. We look at our chart, we see the phoneme which corresponds to that sound and that happens to be the standard ?e? that we all recognize. Here, bet phonetically looks very similar to bet in the Roman script. Now let's take a look at ?i? bit. Now we look at our chart and we see that this symbol represents the ?i? sound and that resembles a capital I not a lowercase I but a capital I and so we've arrived at bit. Now with ?but? we have to find the sound and that corresponds to... [Read more]
Tefl testimonials - Theories Methods Techniques Of Teaching The Direct Method - ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ ITTT
"In terms of the things that are negative about it, we've already said that it doesn't develop speaking but perhaps the biggest negative point about this particular methodology is that it's very unnatural. Ok, so despite the criticisms of this particular method, and particularly the fact that is unnatural, this particular methodology was in use all the way through the 17th, 18th and 19th century and indeed it's still in use today. However, Gouin in the 1880s and Berlitz in the early 1900s decided that this particular methodology was so unnatural that they wanted to come up with something new. The method that they came up with, they called the direct method. You will also sometimes see it as the natural method. What these two people were saying is that if we wish to learn a... [Read more]

Tefl testimonials - For Vs Since English Grammar Teaching Tips - ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ ITTT
In this video, we break down the difference between the usage of "for" and "since". Both of these words are used when talking about time, which is why they often cause confusion for many English learners. However, the difference in the usage of the two words is actually qutie easy. The word "since" is used when referring to a point or exact moment in time, such as in this example: I have been living in this house since 2005. The year 2005 is a point or exact moment in time and therefore, we need to use 'since'. "For", on the other hand, is used for a period or duration of time, such as in this example: I have been living in this house for 12 years; 12 years is a duration of time, and therefore we need to use 'for'. As you can see, all you need to do is figure out whether you are... [Read more]
