No Pain, No Gain
I have always been a fan of no pain, no gain. This has always inspired me to do my best in all my struggles and it proved to be much of help. Luckily, The TEFL Academy opened a wide door for me towards a better future full of success and progress.
Thanks to the TEFL Level 5 course, which I took at the end of 2021, I was accepted by one of the most important academies in Antalya, Turkey to teach English there. I was quite amazed that I had the chance to start my career based on this certificate taking into account that it is not accompanied with any university degree in English language or literature. As soon as I started my job, I realized how helpful it was to have learnt all those details regarding how to prepare lesson plans, how to teach grammar, how to teach vocabulary and other language skills, how to prepare the activities and conduct the best of them to reach the lesson aims. I ended up grateful to every single piece of information that I could learn in that course since no matter how minor it was, it had a positive effect on my performance overall.
Now, I am literally able to apply all the tactics and the methods that I was given in the course especially those related to dealing with problems and maximizing the efficiency of the teaching process. As days pass, I can feel more and more confident and able to perform this job the best way possible because I believe that I got the needed base on which I can pile the layers of my experience. You may think I am exaggerating, but frankly speaking, I am also applying everything that I learned in conducting Proficiency-level lessons such as IELTS and TOEFL.
I feel that I can cope with any situation, deal with any problem during my lessons.
I started teaching an Upper-intermediate class, and it was really great to receive positive feedback remarks from my students as per the periodic satisfaction surveys. Nothing can precisely describe how splendid it is to learn the right thing and apply it right in business life. This was absolutely a cause of a huge push forward, and it led to having a good reputation as an appreciated and desired teacher. Thanks to this success that is formulated by The TEFL Academy, I am now recommended by my students in particular and requested specifically to give private lessons to new students.
I believe that I wouldn’t have been able to achieve all of that if I hadn’t had the chance to learn what should be known exactly by a successful teacher. The remarkable part of the whole thing is that the course conveyed the information effectively, so it was short and straight to the point. I am really lucky I could find myself, and I think it’s now your turn to find your own self. In brief, if you are seeking an educational investment and looking forward to consolidate your skills as an English teacher, the TEFL Level 5 course from The TEFL Academy will help you hit the nail on the head.
