TESOL Teacher Certifications

I must say that I already knew enough well almost all the grammar notions that were taught in this course, though revision is never useless; only Unit 13 on Pronunciation and Phonology really gave me a hard time and I may still not master that particular area of the english language but I am glad I have at least been given the chance to attempt a deeper and more helpful approach to it than I had ever been before. However, what I learnt from these lessons is all the teaching-tailored theory which I had obviously never been exposed to earlier, since I didn’t need to be specifically trained on such matters while studying general english at school just like any other pupil. I think I would use what I have learnt to plan lessons effectively and to stimulate students, starting straight away the next time I am to give a private tuition class, applying the concepts on ‘teaching individual students’ acquired so far; what I probably still lack is a little confidence (but that, eventually, will come) and the experience to deal perhaps with larger classes.
