- Q. How satisfied were you with the classroom element of the course? A. Well organized, well run, tutor made things very easy to follow and was encouraging.
- Q. How satisfied were you with your TEFL Tutor? A. Clear guidance, encouragement, practical tips.
- Q. How satisfied were you with your TEFL Tutor? A. Mayy was an absolutely excellent tutor. She is honestly one of the most experienced teachers I have ever come across, and the experiences and wisdom she had to share were amazing. I also loved the fact that she had a sense of humour, which helped lighten the immense amount of information to absorb during the 20 hour course.
- Q. How satisfied were you with your TEFL Tutor? A. Jennifer was an absolute legend. Her passion for teaching and ability to motivate you and teach the subject with such class was truly something special. She made the course fun but so constructive and valuable it really helped me get a firm grasp of what teaching English in a foreign language is all about and how to go about in the best way possible! 10/10 for Jen!
- Q. How satisfied were you with your TEFL Tutor? A. Elena is an excellent teacher and she was very engaging and supportive. There was a lot to get through and Elena kept the group focused and motivated. The course content is very relevant and I ended the weekend energised and ready to get started in the online content. Thanks Elena - you're great!
- Q. How satisfied were you with the classroom element of the course? A. Although the online study suits me for being able to learn while i am working I really felt my understanding of what tefl is about and how to approach real teaching situations has leaped forward during this weekend. Judy modelled at all times excellent and diverse teaching methods from the moment we arrived until the last activity. I really enjoyed meeting other people and learning together.
- Q. How satisfied were you with your TEFL Tutor? A. It was evident that Judy really knows her stuff. She made people feel at ease, packed in a lot of information by getting us to work things out ourselves, experiment and learn in many different ways. I mentioned on the previous page that she modelled many aspects of teaching throughout the course. Just by observing how Judy organised the materials and the activities and involved us in our own active learning I feel like I learned a lot.
- Q. How satisfied were you with the classroom element of the course? A. It was informative - I felt I've picked up a lot of hints and tips which may not be in the online units, it had elements of humour (thus making it less formal and not boring), it had a good level of interaction and the facilitator on the day kept good order with regards to the 'class loud-mouth' (there's always one) and dealt with the class 'I-know-more-than-the-teacher' guy very well, with answers to everything that was getting thrown at him! It pushed me out of my comfort zone and gave me useful insight into my own abilities. It was also great to get feedback from the other class members too - it built my confidence. It also gave me insight into what I need to work on in terms of presenting to a class. It was great and exceeded my expectations.
- Q. How satisfied were you with your TEFL Tutor? A. He was the perfect mix of good-cop, bad-cop! He passed on a lot of useful information regarding his own experiences which was helpful. It's always good to get some useful hints and tips from someone who's 'been there' in the real world, rather than just reading facts from a book.
