TEFL 120 is worthy

The TEFL course has been an insightful journey! It's an inspiring experience in delving into the process of knowledge transfer. Learning the skills of teaching someone who has no language as the medium of instruction is an exciting opportunity to explore.

Everyone who has the desire to start teaching as a new profession must do the course. Even those who are already in the teaching profession without teaching-oriented courses must join the course in order you avoid many unhealthy practices and continue the productive ones.

I am thankful to ACT Kolkata!

TEFL course

My experience with the Asian College of Teachers (ACT) TEFL course was both comprehensive and practical, providing me with a strong foundation in teaching English as a foreign language. The curriculum covered essential aspects such as lesson planning, classroom management, and grammar, all delivered through a user-friendly online platform. The experienced facilitators provided valuable feedback, and the interactive learning materials kept me engaged throughout. The course’s international recognition has opened up global teaching opportunities, and the diverse community of learners created a supportive space for growth and sharing. Overall, it gave me the confidence and skills to teach English effectively worldwide.

Great learning experience

It was a great learning experience. The trainer was great. The materials provided were efficiently used for the purpose. Classroom setting was great. The portfolio used by us can be used as a reflection upon our teaching when we're out teaching. The course has been structured well and time has been spent well. It gave the trainees a lot of time to reflect upon themselves. The methodologies are up to date and would be useful for a new age learner and teacher. The course was intense but totally worth it.

What is your advice to future travelers on this program?
Be ready to immerse yourselves in a fun thrilled learning program.
Pros
  • New age teaching skills
  • Lesson plans
  • Enhancing language skills

TEFL Kolkata

I took the TEFL course towards the end of 2024. It was enlightening in some ways as it was informative, taught innovative teaching ways, taught engaging and fun activities. The lessons were well structured and every activity done or taught in the class was done with a particular purpose to make the students understand about the role of a teacher, difficulties faced by a TEFL teacher, and the various ways a language can be taught. I had fun in the course and it was a new learning experience for me. I would definitely recommend taking the course as it widened my world view about teaching.

Good Course for developing Teaching skills

I have been a teacher at university levels for 9 years. Per my experience, I thought most of the contents that will be taught here will probably be relevant to my experience. However, to my amazement and appreciation, it surpassed my expectations. This course showed me that there is so much that I do not know and equally much more learn. I am really thankful to the trainers and the supporting team of ACT to help me realise this fact. I have learned a lot from you and hope to learn further here.

What is your advice to future travelers on this program?
If you'd like to develop innovative teaching skills, then you should come here and experience the best of what ACT has to provide. This is the best platform to make use of the opportunities offered abroad and within the nation.

My Journey of TEFL

The experience was indeed unique. To be able to have this experience after a very very long time , away from the monotonous mundane life, it was like a breath of fresh air with new excitement and enthusiasm to take on the world all over again.

It taught me different methods and techniques of teaching in a class. It taught me class management. It gave a boost to my confidence . It gave me a new Outlook and a whole new world to explore.

Even though some more practical experience on teaching an actual class of adults would be more beneficial, however it was still a lot to learn and a very informative course with a certification that will help us find new goals.

I definitely recommend this course to all those who love to travel and love to teach English to kids or anyone . It's for all those people who want to explore different possibilities and want to reach out to everyone who want to connect with one common language.

Over all a great experience and can't wait to find out what's coming next.

What was the most surprising thing you saw or did?
There was one exercise where we were all placed individually and given 5 different musicalminstrumentals. We were asked to express our emotions based on the kind of music being played. I had my own emotions flowing ..but what surprised and even more amazed me was that each of us explained exactly the same emotion with each of those instrumentals. How can a particular piece of bmusic touch the same chord of 6 different individuals ..That was something I loved
Pros
  • Confidence boost
  • Great techniques
  • Can travel and teach
Cons
  • Needed more adult programs and activities
  • Could have some more classes withbpractical teaching
  • Some more study material

Overall experience was great

I think the entire session has been really wonderfully structured,presented and taught. Meeting different people from different backgrounds and then working with them in teams was quite challenging but ultimately we learnt a lot.The most interesting and challenging part was actually entering the class and confronting the students like a real teacher, that was really an experience that made us learn of lot stuffs and most importantly gain huge confidence which was very much required for me personally.

What was the most nerve-racking moment and how did you overcome it?
I would say that going to an actual classroom and preparing lesson plans and presenting all of it was an actual challenging experience but anyway I gained sufficient confidence till the end of the session
Pros
  • Confidence boost
  • Positivity
  • Energetic environment
Cons
  • The pace was a bit fast
  • We would be exhausted till the end of the day
  • Team work was tough
