ITTT Online TEFL/TESOL Course

This online TEFL certification course from ITTT was really great! The things I learned have proved to be useful as I moved overseas to teach English. I have already been recommending this course to others.
I have been tutoring English online, and obtaining this certificate has given me a useful credential to show my students. I'm very thankful for this course, and I still carry the lessons around with me on my laptop and in my Kindle to review at times.

ITTT CERTIFICATION OPENED THE WAY
As Charles Dickens stated in his book, A Tale of Two Cities “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, I decided to embark on a journey to the soils of China in 2017 after I had completed my ITTT certification to see how the future will deal with me.
In fact the wonderful experience that I passed through knew no bounds. My experience was far more than my expectations. My first landing was on the Guangdong province. It was an evening of spectacular sights and sounds.
I was met on arrival by an African friend of mine who has lived in China for about a decade and had mastered the Chinese Mandarin to its best.
The first point of call was a local Chinese restaurant, where I saw groups of Chinese men and women eating different kinds of foods in a blissful mood. We requested for the menu and the colorful illustrations of the foods made me request for the local dumplings. The first intake was a kind of a hard task since I had a zero-experience of using the chopsticks. Gradually it became okay and finally enjoyed my food to the highest level. There were different kinds of drinks, soft and hard to choose from including the local Chinese tea. We walked through the streets of Guangzhou for a while, entered a KTV to enjoy some songs both local and continental and later retired to bed.
The next day served as a starting point for my job hunting expedition, but by the dint of hard work and zeal and with my powerful and recognized ITTT certification, I had a job after three days of searching.
I had a school in Guangzhou which is a popular and commercial hub in the Guangdong Province.
As usual I went in for a demonstration lesson and was fortunately picked, which I always give credits to the best course contents which was developed by the prestigious ITTT.
Since China was now my second home, my interest to learn the Chinese Mandarin to be able to communicate easily with the natives and enjoy my stay in China sky-rocketted.In less than five months I picked up the most essential vocabulary and in the eighth month I had mastered the language to a level that I could communicate with any one.
Because my school had associates and branches in different towns and cities in China, I had the opportunity to move throughout these schools teaching English as a Foreign Language.
The beautiful landscape, beautiful and powerful architectural designs, residential parks and gardens coupled with the dense ever-green vegetation in some parts of China and the rich and marvelous culture of China made my stay in China a remarkable one.
Today, after a year’s stay in China am proud to say that I can speak the Chinese Mandarin very well, and the useful applied linguistics contents gained from the ITTT certification is strongly helping me in my additional field of Computational linguistics which am to complete soon.
Best wishes to ITTT, ITTT graduates and all those who plan taking the ITTT certifications.

I have done the course online.
Every time I have sent my final exam, the corrector has been very helpful and assertive in his support.
I had clear feedback.
He was really of great help even taking time to explain point he saw I misunderstood.
I will be going in Tokyo this September and hopefully will start teaching English.
I am very glad to have done the TEFL it was the best reconversion for my age and career.

So amazing that doing this course opens so many doors. I lived in Vietnam straight after I completed my course and was turning down job offers constantly as teachers are so sought after there. Especially with a good qualification. I travelled India and Thailand too and not only found employment in many countries but volunteered my teaching skills as often as I could. None of which would have been possible without this course. AMAZING!

A good option for someone without a lot of time to devote to gaining a TEFL certification, but not wonderful if you want an in-depth instruction into what teaching English actually looks like. But it's definitely a good start, and is very affordable and flexible. At the end of the course, you create lesson plans and receive critiques, which is helpful. You also get a flexible stretch of time in which to complete the course, which is also quite nice if you have other things going on in your life.

Overall, I really benefited a lot from the online TEFL course i did with ITTT. Even though it was done online, it provided all the materials and resources that consequently flowed throughout my course experience in about a week and some days. The course contained detailed resources that covered major aspects of what a TEFL teacher could expect to see in their classrooms, the different learning styles, the different learner approaches and most importantly the classroom management techniques to use to cater for the needs of the english learners in the classroom. previously before commencing on the online TEFL course with ITTT, i had been teaching English to middle school students in Bolivia, South America and i experienced difficulties in using varied strategies to cater to the needs of my english students and as a result it also affected the classroom management but after having completed the online TEFL course program, i learnt different learning approaches and strategies to use and implement in the classroom to help my english learners which in turn also improved the management of my classroom. With the comprehensive knowledge and lesson plan feedback that i got from completing my online TEFL course i am able to use it currently with my students here in Mexico and it has produced positive results so far.

This program was very thorough and helpful. It breaks down all aspects of TEFL very succinctly into 20 modules and gives very clear instruction. I felt prepared after this course to go into the classroom and positively impact my students. I didn't opt for interaction with the tutor during the modules, but I could easily see how this would have enriched my experience even more. For the lesson plan section, here's my best tip! Be exhaustive in your detail of the all the activities and rationales behind them. The graders want to see your thought process and get in your head. The course was incredibly affordable, and I would definitely recommend it as a dependable, credible, and flexible option for gaining TESOL/TEFL certification.

This course was interesting and insightful with the study syllabus clearly and easily presented. The knowledge learnt from it was very useful in helping me designing my classes and tailoring it to fit my students. It allowed me to be able to teach in a group setting and for one-on-one tutoring as well. The resources provided in the reading list encouraged me to continue with my own passion in teaching and improving my teaching skills.
The best part was the simple ways they present their Grammar Units, making it easy for me to understand.
