Program Reviews

This is a must do Online Course for every Teacher or teacher-to-be. All of the Units bring valueble information, straight to the point facts. Up-to-date content with intelligent and crucial insights to lesson plans, class management and many more.
If you aren’t sure where to start, i recommend the 60hr Online Program. From there you can level up and take on any of the other available Courses.
I myself am headed to the Mater Program of 50hr. Make your choice.

I enjoyed studying this 120-hour TEFL/TESOL course a lot! All the materials were well structured and balanced. Staff support was very responsive, flexible, and helpful. There were 20 units and each of them required passing a test at the end. All students are required to submit a lesson plan at the end of the course and that part was the most challenging part. I am happy that my lesson plan has been accepted on the first attempt! It took me a lot of time and concentration though. But if you get your course with video, and tutor support, and also, if read unit content and requirements carefully - you are going to pass it successfully! I am looking forward to taking the other two courses I signed up for, which are also parts of my Master package: Teaching English to Young Learners and Teaching Business English.

I would recommend this course to a friend. I was extremely happy with this course! I have zero teaching experience and after going through this course I feel confident that I could teach English in a foreign country. I did the 120-hour course with videos, and the videos were especially helpful because they showed how the lesson plan you're reading on paper actually comes to life in a classroom, which put my nerves at ease. I'm now considering doing the ITTT observed teaching practice (OTP) course because I want to go to Vietnam and they really value live in-class demos as part of their hiring process.

As for me it is the best conception - to travel and to earn. I was looking for something like this for a long time. At first I was afraid when got the materials. I desided to try (permission to get my money back consoled me). But everyting went good. I successfully pass all units. There were no problems with it. The main difficulty was with the lesson plan. I did it when it was my last try)). Now I`m trying to pass BE and English to young learners. And I`m looking forward to get a job in Europe.

I would highly recommend the course to anyone looking to start TEFL! The instructors are wonderful and the support staff is always there to help. I was able to leave the course feeling prepared and ready to teach. The course was fast-paced, but it covers everything you need to become an ESL teacher. It was great to attend teaching practicals and practice with actual students, as opposed to something online It was an amazing experience and incredibly helpful at the start of my new journey.

This is one of the best TEFL programs out there! The trainers are fantastic, they are extremely experienced and can confidently answer any question.
The course includes 6 teaching practices which is a fantastic way to develop and learn by doing.
The course is very interactive, enjoyable and if you put the effort in you will see a huge growth and change in yourself from the first day until the last.
They have staff who provide really good job support and help you to write a CV.
Plus, you get to study in Chiang Mai! It's my favourite city in Thailand!!!

Now I know the title sounds a bit extreme, but it is the absolute truth. This course was a real eye-opener and has probably changed my life for the better. Before taking this course, I taught English in the good ol' USA for three years. I loved my job, but I always wanted to branch out and do something on a global scale. Ever since I was a child, I have long been fascinated with Japanese culture and language, so last summer I took it upon myself to finally journey to Tokyo and get my TESOL Certificate. The education I received was top notch, and both of the instructors are equally hilarious, learned, and passionate about what they do. You could probably get your TESOL another way, but then you would miss out on all that Larry and Dave bring to the table. They really bring the course to life for their students, and encourage them to fully immerse themselves in the community. I even got to teach in a Japanese grade school and a college! As a matter of fact, I'm going back this summer to help out on the course, so if you have any questions, just email me at jeffreytayloroutwater@gmail.com. I'll be happy to answer any questions you have!

I have just got my certificate after taking part in the 120 - hour Online Tefl Course. I am glad that I have chosen this , it was really worth the price. I struggled with the lesson plan, but with the help of my tutor I managed to do it! I would highly recommend this course to anyone! I am now taking part in the CTBE Course and afterwards my intention is the CTEYL. I got grade A which I am very proud of! I hope to find the perfect job with the help of my TEFL certificate !

I just completed my 120 hours TEFL certificate, and I am really happy. I have learned a lot from this course, very interesting and informative. I now have a better understanding of how to teach English to non-native speakers. I completed this course in less than a month, with an overall average of 95.83%. The unit tests were very manageable. The lesson plan was a bit challenging, but I was able to succeed in my first attempt. Thanks to ITTT for the wealth of knowledge I have gained from this course. I now look forward to using what I have learned in teaching English to non-native speakers. I hope to gain employment soon to teach English in China.

Translation:
I like to know what are the goals of my student. What motivates them to want to learn a language. I try to discern the language level and abilities of my future students before creating my lesson plans to build on what they already know. I use the ESA method (engage / study / activate) for my class formats. I try to minimize TT (teacher speaking time) and increase STT (student talk time). I always present myself with a smile, enthusiasm and energy, as well as a professional but friendly approach. I appreciate the importance of prompting (thinking about issues) and using the many techniques and approaches available. Games, songs and visual aids play a role in keeping the fun and time flies. I strive to maintain a balance with grammar, structure, verbs, vocabulary, pronunciation and conversation ability.

Original:
J'aime savoir quels sont les objectifs de mon élève. Ce qui les motive à vouloir apprendre une langue. J'essaie alors de discerner le niveau de langue et les capacités de mes futurs étudiants avant de créer mes plans de leçon afin de bâtir sur ce qu'ils savent déjà. J'utilise la méthode ESA (engager/étudier/activer) pour mes formats de classe. J'essaie de minimiser TTT (enseignant temps de parole) et augmenter STT (temps de conversation étudiant). Je me présente toujours avec un sourire, l'enthousiasme et l'énergie, ainsi que d'une approche professionnelle mais conviviale. J'apprécie l'importance de l'incitant (réflexion suscitant des questions) et en utilisant les nombreuses techniques et approches disponibles. Jeux, chansons et aides visuelles jouent un rôle dans le maintien de l'amusement et le temps passe rapidement. Je m'efforce de garder un équilibre avec la grammaire, la structure, les verbes, le vocabulaire, la prononciation et la capacité de conversation.
