Tefl

Very good course
. Our teacher, kuhu is fantastic and we met some great people with similar goals to our own. After we finished the weekend course, we busied ourselves with summer office work and applied for almost every job opening that we could find. We focused mainly on south east Asia, but we also applied to
So what eventually drew me to Tefl?
I wanted to learn languages. I thought that I would stay in one country for around six months and then move on to the next place. I think I saw myself as a wandering linguist, soaking up culture wherever I went – a good self-image for an 18 year old. It didn't quite work out that way as I stayed (the first time round) for eight years.
The management is very helpful take care of everything and help your queries until it solve.
Take care of your everything and the best thing I like is that trainer is very helpful with multitasking skills and know the time management skills well that will help us a lot.

Very good opportunity for those who wants to travel around the world as a teacher

From the first day itself I was pretty excited about the course,the instructor name is Kuhu she was very supportive and the finest trainer.she very helpful in difficult situations.she start the day with new warmers everyday which was pretty exciting and very refreshing I also met new people from. different countries,I made new friends.Overall the course was very good who wants to travel around the world like me as a teacher.Thailand was the best country to do this course,the people here are pretty friendly and the food was tasty.The course was aweosome but had to improve on the placement assistance which they are providing.I completed my course successfully on Feb 22 nd 2019,I was really missing the class we used to sit everyday we had so much fun all the students in course was very supportive and very friendly and funny 😁 too.They are such a nice people from the trainer to trainee's. Overall my experience with course will be 10/10***.

Act course bangkok

The class was very practical which made it loads of fun. The trainer was superb and the course was extremely informative overall. I Highly recommend this college. The class consisted of different examples of teaching methods and processes to follow. We learnt about classroom management and many different types of learning methods and the culture of the country we are in. We also went to a school to do teaching practice which was an amazing experience and the best way to learn to become a teacher. I recommend this course to anyone looking to get a start at teaching and needing to learn a lot quickly and ready yourself for the career. You will have so much fun and always remember it. I also made great friends with the classmates all friendly and smart people with similar interests and good attitudes. A very fun experience.

My TEFL journey

Asian College Teachers offers me a lot of knowledge in teaching skills which is helpful to me in order to teach English to the young learners and inspire them be good at English language. Teaching skills are very important.
Without knowing how to teach we will not be able to give the lessons to our students.
In 2015, I used to teach the person who is not native speakers. I realize that giving lectures to those who are none native speakers it is like that they spend their time without gain any knowledge. I now have confidence to teach English to those no matter who are native or none native.
My experience in this class is very perfect. This experience could not be able to forget because this college had gaven me a lot of knowledge on the education.

What would you improve about this program?
Asian College Teacher cans be improved by the student who has studied in the class.

Good

It was a good experience , I’ve learn lots of new things and also build my confident level.
At first everything was new to me and sometimes I even felt that I’m in kindergarten because of warmer before class that was totally new thing to me but overall I enjoyed the class and that helps me to freshen up when I almost doze off.
Teaching techniques is excellent, to become a language teacher, one’s need to join TEFL course whether in India or in Bangkok. In this these course I learn how to be patience with students, how to treat them, classroom management and lots of activities that will a student. Moreover Thailand is a beautiful place where people are so polite, helpful, friendly, and always wear smiles on their face. I get chance to explore Thailand apart from the course. And last but not least, our coordinator and trainer are helpful in every ways.

I would suggest anyone who love teaching and travelling at the same time!

Student

As an experienced teacher from the US, I thought this would be a simple course just to get a certificate and begin my journey. I was very surprised to find that I learned so much in structure and psychology of teaching. Teaching fundamental, systematic lesson plans greatly enriched my experience and competence as a teacher. I really enjoyed the experience and would highly recommend it to anyone considering such an adventure. The instructor was supremely competent and excellent in being prepared. Keeping adults attention for 3 weeks, 7-8 hours a day, is not easy. However, our instructor was able to do that at a very high level. Also, the practical things one needs to know about Thai culture, do's and dont's and something as simple as where to live, was very helpful. Here's wishing everyone a fruitful journey and if you feel teaching English in Thailand or anywhere abroad is for you, please consider this outstanding program. It will be a great investment.

My experience

It was a great learning experience. It was my first time in Bangkok and it was really really good. Our trainer June was great and we had a lot of fun in the class. My peers were all great people and from different places and ethnicities. My experience personally and in class was both great. We had an intense course for 8 hours everyday for three weeks . The lessons and warmups we learnt were very helpful. We did new things everyday. I am from a non native country so for me it’s a mandatory certification . I would like to go to any country to teach English. We had peer teach in classroom for the second week and we did student teaching in class in the third week. We went to different schools and taught different sections like primary and mattayom

What would you improve about this program?
Its good as it is. The program has great things to offer. It was new experience to me and I met all sorts of people .

ACT Bangkok TEFL course

I was very aprehensive to begin this course. My level of confidence was low and I was continually worried about job opporitunities after the course. The support from the staff both personally as well as academically helped to eleviate almost all of those aprehensions and worries. I feel I have come out of this course not only as a great teacher, but also a better person emotionally. I cannot thank the staff enough for their support.
Throughout the course work, the information was presented quickly, but very concisely. A lot of effort from the trainers went into the lesson plans and it was very noticeable. They brought many ideas that helped us and gave us ideas for "warmers" while we were learning as well. I had fun with my classmates and almost never felt under pressure from my peers.

What would you improve about this program?
More in class experience as well more time to prepare each lesson before performing. It was stressful, but the way this was presented show how important critical thinking as well as understanding the teaching methods and lesson plan structures was to complete and prepare quick lessons.

Career move

What an awesome experience, I left SA pursuing a new career and decided on doing the TEFL through ACT.
Overall the entire course was a bit daunting at first but June(our instructor) was so a treat, she made us all feel right at home and just kept on pushing us while pushing through.
After long it all made a whole lot of sense and one gets into the rhythm of putting everything together and getting on top of the always lurking stress... I’m now so much more confident and ready for pretty much any school teaching job.
Here I am on my last day just finished the third practical and I am totally stoked at how far I’ve come.
I’ve even managed to bag a great paying job and I need to start in 3 days!
I would like to thank everyone at ACT especially June and Pak for making this whole experience a memorable one!
I’m a teachaaaa!

What would you improve about this program?
Overall it is very well structured. I’m sure a diagram of the different teaching structures will make it much easier to visualize and remember the steps.
