In this TESOL review Jason describes his experience during his TEFL/TESOL course in Shanghai, China. He talks about the hands on teaching opportunities that the course provided. The majority of ITTT's trainees who do our four week intensive course come with no prior knowledge or experience of teaching English. Our challenging but rewarding courses give trainees the confidence and skills to be able to take up teaching positions in countries all over the world.
Below you can read feedback from an ITTT graduate regarding one section of their online TEFL certification course. Each of our online courses is broken down into concise units that focus on specific areas of English language teaching. This convenient, highly structured design means that you can quickly get to grips with each section before moving onto the next.
In this unit we looked at various cultural differences and issues we might encounter while teaching in different parts of the world, went through general rules that we should keep in mind while teaching abroad. Touched up on several important things to keep in mind while looking for employment as well as methods to find employment. Finally the basics of having correct C.V. resume.From this unit, I learned basic parts of English grammar and realized the importance of these fundamental knowledge. Although examples that are taught in this unit are easy to understand, the smaller categories under each part of speech still need more attention. Grammar is the root of a language so an English teacher should be familiar with the grammar rules behind each sentence.
