My TESOL course experience

My name is Joy and I am really excited to have completed the TESOL course.

Before now, I never thought I will ever be confident enough
(though interested) to teach English Language either online or in a physical class setting because I hadn't the know-how neither did I have the basic skills needed to teach.

However, after taking the 160 hour course, I can say that I now posess the knowledge and skills to efficiently and effectively teach English to speakers of other languages both physically and online, as I am now well equipped with even the tiniest details and skills set needed to put a class together, while taking into consideration factors such as age range of students, cultural background, their motivation and learning styles etc and making lesson plans tailored to suit the above mentioned factors in a bid to adequately cater to every student's unique personality, experience and interest, knowing every student has different reasons(motivation) for enrolling in an English class.

Also I have learned that to be able to teach efficiently, it is of utmost importance to be able to spice things up with the use of props, realia etc thereby creating a physical connection with the topic being taught. Not also forgetting to praise and appreciate or reward students for their efforts when necessary.

All of these skills to mention a few I have been able to learn in the comfort of my home , using a smart phone.

In conclusion, being able to have completed the course at my own pace is something I truly appreciate.. though I had set a timeline for when I would like to have it completed, I had no reason whatsoever to feel pressured or rush through completing the course .

Pros
  • Learning at my own pace
  • Ability to go back to previous lessons
  • Having quizzes to test my understanding
What other participants should know
  • I read some quiz questions wrongly
  • Some questions did not specify the number of options to select when it required more than one option. Hence leading to not passing the question.
  • Module 7 was a bit too long. It could have been broken down to smaller modules.

120-hour TESOL/TEFL Course

The course topics actually were actually relevant and very good.
The lessons were taught briefly but it's full of necessary topics to help the students become better prepared in their teaching careers. Specific examples helped a lot in understanding the topics more. I would love to have video lectures though to help aid my learning process. Reading took so much time. The course could be aided with short videos about the topics to help visual and auditory learners understand the topics better.
However the program is a satisfactory one. I wish there's a sample lesson modules to be given away to the graduates to help them see the whole picture of engaging in TESOL practice. Free downloadable review materials for the topic lessons would be great too, so that taking notes would be lessened and help students focus more on comprehension instead.

Pros
  • Relevant topics
  • The example(s) per topic helped me better understand them
  • Great way to refresh, review and re-enforce English knowledge
What other participants should know
  • I didn't experienced video lectures.
  • Sometimes you need to have extra knowledge about the topic to correctly answer the quiz
  • Reading took so much time.

TESOL course

A friend just recently passed this course and referred this to me. At first I was hesitant because I was thinking it might be too difficult for me and it might take much of my time. It turned out that the course is really easy to navigate and understand. I also like the part where I can just take one lesson at a time. The lessons are divided in a way that will not make you drained after a long day at work. I was able to finish the whole course in two weeks with lots of breaks in between. This course does not really take much of your time if you are just plainly reading the lesson, but you should also make sure to at least note the highlights of each lesson for you to review later on before taking the exam. Overall, I am just glad to have this course taken. Thank you for this great opportunity.

Pros
  • Refresh my knowledge of the basics in learning the English language.
  • Lessons are easy to understand.
  • The activities provided are of big help.

My experience with the TESOL Course

The Tesol Online Course is a really great option if you want to build a complete and relevant CV as an English teacher. This course has a very strong validity overseas and is perfect if you are new and want to learn about how to teach English. It covers lots of different aspects involving this career and I found really interesting the final approach that it has related to online teaching, noticing the relevance of this type of teaching nowadays. It has a really easy to use platform and very intuitive activities, resources and techniques to practice and to use in your own classes.

Pros
  • Complete
  • Relevant
  • Up-to-date
What other participants should know
  • Information seen superficially
  • Mainly theorical

Accredited 120-hour TESOL/TEFL course is excellent

The accredited 120-hour TESOL/TEFL course is a great way to get certified online with it's user friendly website and excellent modules. I enjoyed every step of the way and learnt so much information about being an English teacher. I will definitely be signing up for the specialist skills bundle soon. Might even sign up for the practicum too. I wish I obtained these certificates a long time ago. Hopefully this will open up new opportunities for me in future and change my career path. Thank you to everyone at World TESOL Academy for doing all that you do ^_^

Pros
  • User friendly website
  • Well laid out modules
  • Great quizzes
What other participants should know

120 hour Tesol program

I completed all four certificate programs for the valuable knowledge each one provided. The price for each one was so inexpensive that I was able to afford them. Most other programs are a lot more expensive and I doubt that that would have been any more thorough in the informations they presented. I highly recommend the others courses also. Teaching Young Learners, Teaching Adult Students and Teaching English Online. They do not hold you back by not offering you a certificate unless you do pass THEIR practical application standards. They give you all the needed tools, and you do do as much practicing on your own, till you are ready to make your demo or intro videos to seek employment. If you take good notes while going through all the modules, you have all the info to refer back to later. I found all the quizzes and final exams to be fair and not too hard to make many fail. So I wish you all the best as you pursue your dream of teaching English. Have completed all certifications I was able to really understand the advantages and disadvantages of each and every option of possible employment opportunities. Much information I was not aware of until I completed all courses.

Pros
  • clear and practical
What other participants should know
  • none

120-hour TEFL/TESOL course

Completing the 200 hour TESOL Professional’ course with WORLD TESOL ACADEMY was an incredibly rewarding experience that I am proud to have achieved with a Distinction. I also took advantage of the additional add-ons for ‘Business English’ and ‘Teaching English Online’, which were both insightful and useful.

The course itself covered a wide range of topics with a sometimes-heavy workload, and it was comprehensive and complete. I discovered that I was learning something new every day, so it was absolutely worth the effort. Although there were some tough portions of the course, the tutors' instruction allowed me to keep my grade and accomplish my objectives.

I highly recommend World TESOL Academy to anyone looking to advance their career in TESOL. The tutors’ support and the comprehensive course material are outstanding. Thank you, World TESOL Academy, for providing such a wonderful learning experience!

Pros
  • Easy to Navigate
  • Lessons are easy to understand
  • Instructors are quick to respond
What other participants should know
  • There are lessons that are hard to understand.
  • Some lessons are too long
  • The quizzes correct answers are sometimes incorrect. I am having issues with the quizzes.

While we were reading your review we also noticed in the certificate picture that your name is slightly longer than the standard certificate accepts. We've sent an email to you with an updated copy of your certificate, designed to custom-fit your full name. It should be in your inbox shortly 🙂.

Interesting

Fist of all, I am so satisfied with the experience that I had with you course program. I have learned the essential knowledge to embark on a professional career as a teacher of English Language. In my opinion, it would be better if you can add some videos that explain the methods and techniques of teaching English. Otherwise, I can say that every single part of the program is really well worth it. I encourage every future teacher to enroll in World TESOL Academy to get everything you need to become a successful teacher.

TESOL/TEFL 120-hour course

During whole of my life i was learning English by taking different, disconnected parts. Most of my English is taught by computer games and films. It became a mess in my head and i didn't know how to use it properly. Now i know. This course made me to do a big cleanup in my knowledge and add some essential tools and approaches to English. Now I can not only use a daily speech in general situation, but have a long conversation with people, cause i am understood the construction of English on English)))
My best regards to WORLD TESOL Academy, guys you are brilliants)))
