Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences When I started this course, I was seeking a TEFL certificate as well as some tips for being a teacher. What I learned along the way is that to be a good teacher, your focus must be on your students. Of course, a teacher needs to have a certain set of skills to be able to teach, however, those skills in themselves will never make you a good teacher. This course taught me that a teacher needs to be less focused on themselves and more focused on the needs of their students. This post was written by our TEFL certification graduate Brandon B. Please note that this blog post might not necessarily represent the beliefs or opinions of ITTT. From their very first lesson, a teacher needs to be establishing rapport with their students.

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas Self-assessment is a process through which teachers get to evaluate their work, learning and teaching progress. Self-assessment is a valuable learning tool as well as part of the general assessment process. Teacher self-assessment is important for the following reasons.

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas No matter how well-prepared a teacher may be, every classroom is different, which means each student is different, and each teacher needs to be able to adjust and be able to establish rapport with the new class. For some teachers, working in a foreign country may cause them to feel uneasy; however, a teacher needs to overcome this feeling to be successful in the classroom. Indeed, building rapport with all students will help. Although this is a continuous process throughout the term, the key to establishing a friendly learning environment starts on day one. Thus, the best way to build rapport is to know the students’ names and interests by the end of the day or week (depending on class size).

Linda Dunsmore Alumni Experiences I remember taking Russian classes at a local language institute. My motivation initially was my love for Russian culture and a desire to move there. However, actually having the discipline to study the language proved to be a different reality. So with motivation in the classroom, I know from personal experience what can and cannot work - generally speaking. There are three key themes outlined here that address not only providing motivation to the students but also the students having their own motivation. These three themes are teachers motivation, students motivation, and classroom motivation. This post was written by our TEFL certification graduate Andrew M. The teacher's motivation needs to be something deeper than just job security or finances. Any...  [Read more]

Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences There are millions of English teachers out there and how do we know if they are teacher material or not. We don’t. Because every single person in this world has its own unique qualities that are lovable by someone. However, there are certain qualities that are needed if you are an English teacher, but they are just my own opinion. Besides you should be able to teach English in English, I think patience is the most important quality a teacher should have. You will experience from the most annoying kid to the most unreasonable adult. How can you handle them without causing a scene? Patience is all you need. Sometimes all you need to do is to talk to them patiently and not lose your temper. You will find it surprisingly effective. This post was...  [Read more]

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas If you search for the word 'to teach' in the Cambridge Dictionary, the first response will be "to give someone knowledge or to train someone".

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas The classroom embodies a space where students learn. That space is usually a mixture of varying personalities, learning styles, and student levels. A teacher’s role in ensuring that students learn is of great importance seeing that the teacher serves as a facilitator for all, counselor to some, mentor to some, and disciplinarian to others. Teachers must possess or learn certain skills to be effective in the ESL/EFL classroom. While many factors are influencing the actual outcome of an EFL/ESL lesson, teachers of young learners must be patient, adaptable, and possess good classroom management skills. These skills are crucial for young learners because, on the one hand, they have shorter attention spans, they have fewer experiences and they can get very...  [Read more]

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas It all starts with one big question I ask.” Why do teachers need to learn teaching skills? “ Teaching is an essential part of education. Its special function is to impart knowledge, develop understanding and skills. It is usually associated with the imparting of 3 Rs- reading skills, writing skills, listening skills, and writing skills. The teachers play a vital role in imparting knowledge to the learners, but to know how to teach is the great art of teaching and you teach what you need to learn.

Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences Lesson planning means that the teacher establishes his/her credibility.

Like all things in life that involve a group of human beings, 100% success is almost impossible. Improvising due to unforeseen circumstances is a skill a teacher needs but it is NOT a valid excuse for not planning your lessons. • You may find your lesson plan needs to be adjusted during the class. It is your call whether you let it happen or not. • If you really have to improvise and adjust the lesson plan, try to get back to the plan as soon as you can. • It is rare but not...  [Read more]

Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences Teaching English in a foreign country with students who speak very little of the language is a challenge. It is not a walk in the park as most people would like to think. There are customs and cultures which teachers must be aware of and must respect in order not to offend locals. There are certain things which teachers do in the United States, which cannot be done in other countries, let’s say Thailand, for example. It is of utmost importance for teachers to get acquainted with the dos and don’ts of the country where they are going. This post was written by our TEFL certification graduate Jhoana C.

This post will describe some of the steps and strategies that would assist them. This post was written by our TEFL certification graduate James O.

⏩ Tefl reviews - English Grammar Present Simple Negative Form Teacher Pay Overseas - ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ ITTT


  http://www.teflonline.net This ITTT video examines the negative structure of the Present Simple tense. The positive and questions forms are covered in other videos. Negative: subject + auxiliary verb 'do' + not + base form of the verb I/You/We/They do not teach. He /She/It does not teach. It is always important to teach the contracted forms i.e. do not - don't, does - doesn't. In the negative form the auxiliary verb (also called the helping verb) doesn't has the s so the main verb doesn't need an s -- for example, He doesn't teach. ITTT's teaching courses equip graduates with the qualification and skills necessary to obtain teaching positions globally. Our graduates are in high demand because of the professional level of training and learning acquired on our courses. As a result...  [Read more]

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas I guess we all have been there. Sitting in a classroom where the teacher never stops talking. How did it feel? Was it interesting and motivating or was it perhaps boring and discouraging? Did you have the feeling of having learned something when the lesson was over? Whereas getting students talking in the classroom has proved quite a challenge to many teachers, having them verbalize what they are thinking about is very important. Even when the learning has been handed over to the students, it is still very tempting to spend far too much time giving directions, repeating important information and instructions, and telling students how they did rather than asking them to reflect on their work.
