TEFL experience

I recently completed the TEFL course with the Asian College of Teachers, and overall, it was a rewarding experience. The course content was well-structured, covering everything from lesson planning and classroom management to teaching methodologies and grammar essentials. I found the material to be clear, engaging, and practical for real-world teaching scenarios.

One of the highlights for me was the flexibility of the program. Being able to study at my own pace allowed me to balance the course with my personal and professional commitments. The trainers were knowledgeable and supportive, always providing constructive feedback that helped me improve my skills.

The practical assignments, especially the lesson planning tasks, were very useful in applying what I learned. Additionally, the certification being internationally recognized gives me confidence as I pursue teaching opportunities abroad.

That said, I believe there is room for improvement. More interactive live sessions or workshops could enhance the learning experience by allowing more direct interaction with trainers and peers. Additionally, the job placement support could be more proactive and personalized to help graduates secure teaching positions more efficiently.

TEFL Days

Well structured with the 4skills + grammar and phonology. The course effectively balanced grammar instructions and practical grammar exercises. Overall it was an effective and well structured program for language development. It's a power package of so many interactive activities, grammar contextualisation and phonology review. This is an experience I'll cherish and it adds great value to my resume. I'm thankful for all of it and I would definitely recommend it to all of my friends who want to teach abroad.

Best time

It was a remarkable experience. I got to know about a lot that I was not aware of. The instructions were clear and classes were filled with lot of activities. I enjoyed my 3 week class with full satisfaction. The class was interactive. I got to meet peer who were sharing goals as of mine. We got to learn about each other and learn and grow together. This course was such a great decision that I took in my life. And our trainer gave us a lot a new information that I wasn't aware of and I also learnt a lot of new activities which will be useful for me during my teaching

TEFL experience

I had the best experience. Going to school and getting a real practice and teaching experience. The lesson conducted in a new and different way was something I enjoyed. I have learnt how to deal with kids and special abled kids. I made new friends I had fun it was a good experience and I would definitely recommend it to others.

The trainer Mitul a'am was really helpful and we got the best I feel. Even the person I spoke to Rupa who was dealing with my admission process was really helpful and patiently answered all my queries

Alumni Interviews

These are in-depth Q&A sessions with verified alumni.

Why did you choose this program?

It's my dream to travel around the world. Basically I'm a commerce student (mcom). If I choose an accounting job, any other job I can't fullfill my dream. Teaching is my passion, so I decided to teach and travel around the world. I'm sure that this program is the best way to fullfill everyone's dream.

What did your program provider (or university) assist you with, and what did you have to organize on your own?

ACT helps every students to improve their communication skills and also they provide advanced technology, methodology to their students. Our trainer Is also a talented person; she helps me so much to clear my doubts without hesitation. If I can do my own, I should help the students to achieve their dreams.

What is one piece of advice you'd give to someone going on your program?

My advice is to my friends who are going to do this course is that, if you have strong passion for teaching, you can succeed; otherwise, never do this course. This course is a big platform for those who dream to go abroad and teach. It is also a challenging program. Do what you make happy and follow your heart.

What does an average day/week look like as a participant of this program?

If you are studying in ACT, punctuality is a must. Wake up early and going to class on time is very important. Every day we are eagerly waiting to do new activities and pair works. There are lot of activities and group work given by our trainer that are very useful for improving our ability to teach and handling the students.

Going into your experience abroad, what was your biggest fear, and how did you overcome it? How did your views on the issue change?

I don't have any experience because I never go abroad. If I get a chance to go abroad, my biggest fear will be independence because I live in a joint family; I never visited any place without my parents. But I believe I can overcome this situation for making new friends and colleagues. Face situations with courage and confidence.

Do you have a favorite story abroad?

I don't have any favourite story to share, sorry for that. I think, don't go abroad with fears. Just enjoy your profession and travel around the world . Set your mind before going to abroad; face the challenges and accept their culture; obey the rules don't make it complicated. Respect elders. Thank you.

What is your favorite travel memory?

Although I have traveled to few countries in the world and immigrated too, however, till date my all time favorite travel memory is when I had visited Thailand in the year 2009. It was almost as if I was in love with that place instantly and secretly wished to work in Thailand. By God's grace, my dream came true through Asian College of Teachers. As TEFL trainer, my job demands traveling and training in different locations and I have been traveling to Bangkok on and off for the same. Exotic locales of Thailand, friendly and ever smiling people, amazing hospitality, unlimited variety of food and a paradise for the shopaholics, make my travels to Thailand an evergreen one, always.

What do you believe to be the biggest factor in being a successful company?

There are many factors that come into play in being a successful company. However, I believe that the biggest factor is innovation along with good marketing strategies. Although success, however we choose to define it, is a continuous work in progress. Most importantly, in a company where people work as 'WE' than 'I', it is creating more compelling and enriching future.

How have you changed/grown since working for your current company?

I have not only changed but also grown since working for Asian College of Teachers. Changed in terms of being more confident, efficient and most importantly in skill building. Definitely I see myself to have grown as an effective communicative trainer and people's manager, from what I used to be fours years back.

What unique qualities does your company possess?

The leadership team of every good company has a great ambition for the company. Asian college of Teachers (ACT) offers the same, meet customer needs, relentless attention to execution (not only the products but in customer service too) and offers flexibility to all its employee, which makes ACT a great place to work for.

Describe a time when you felt especially proud to be part of your current team.

There is not a time where I felt proud to be a part of an efficient team but quite a few moments where I have felt the same. To be able to recognize employee's talent and efficiency is culture and a ritual that is effectively practiced in ACT. Whenever my hard and smart work have been appreciated, it goes without saying that it has simply boosted my self confidence, helped further to speed up my efficiency and planted the seed to learn and grow more.

What is the best story you've heard from a return student?

The best story so far what I have heard is when a student claims how ACT has touched its life and has helped to transform. The best of the best part is, when a student expresses to be a part of ACT as an employee or to work as a partner.
