TESOL TEFL Reviews - Video Testimonial - Leslie

 

Leslie is a Canadian English teacher at a junior high school in the Japanese countryside. In this TESOL review, Leslie tells us she is looking to open her own English language day care centre at her home and with this in mind she took the 120-hour certificate course with ITTT as well as the 50-hour young learners course to bring her qualifications up to date. Hopefully for Leslie this will be the first step on a rewarding career as the owner of a successful English language school in Japan.


Below you can read feedback from an ITTT graduate regarding one section of their online TEFL certification course. Each of our online courses is broken down into concise units that focus on specific areas of English language teaching. This convenient, highly structured design means that you can quickly get to grips with each section before moving onto the next.

I had no idea of how many verb tense distinctions there are in English. Regarding the present tense, as a native speaker, I did not pay attention to when and when not to use each variation. In this unit, I learned about the present tense and its variations, which are very distinct from present tense forms in other languages that I have studied before.This unit is somewhat nuanced, that it was practically difficult for me to understand completely without seeking additional clarification from my English grammar textbook by Michael Swan. I have understood the concept of tenses, and how it is used. Although I will have to continuously refresh my memory by studying more about it to understand in-depth.
