- Q. How satisfied you were with the classroom element of the course? A. I gave that score because the classroom element was crucial to me. Going through lesson planning and actually delivering a lesson was excellent experience.
- Q. How satisfied you were with your TEFL Tutor? A. The TEFL Tutor was very experienced, and was approachable. He was able to answer questions well and has worked as a a TEFL teach for a long time so was able to reassure the students in the class and give good feedback on presentations that the students had to do.
- Q. How satisfied you were with the classroom element of the course? A. The tutor's delivery of the course made it a pleasant experience to begin working on the content. She created a good learning environment and her demonstration of teaching skills was very helpful. She also was very accessible in terms of asking questions about her personal experience of teaching, which is something that you cannot acquire through completing the online coursework only.
- Q. How satisfied you were with your TEFL Tutor? A. Perhaps more time could be devoted to individual CV preparation and job search techniques, plus giving more of an insight into particular characteristics of teaching English in different countries, such as testimonies of TEFL teachers. This would be very helpful in the process of searching and applying for jobs.
- Q. How satisfied you were with the classroom element of the course? A. I had a really wonderful time. The teaching was very good. The atmosphere was relatively laid back, which was good as I was expecting it to be far more rigid. The other students on the course were interesting, the have good feedback and all seamed to be inspired by the course. I learnt a lot, both about teaching English and even about English grammar. I couldn't have asked for a more informative teacher or experience in the classroom course.
- Q. How satisfied you were with your TEFL Tutor? A. He was a very good teacher He listened to all the student input and asked out opinions of TEFL classes that he showed us. He gave good feedback and helped us without overpowering our ideas.
- Q. How satisfied you were with the classroom element of the course? A. Joe was an absolutely brilliant teacher, and the course whilst very intense was wonderfully satisfying because of his attitude and rapport with us all as a group. The breakdown of the day, with breaks and time to relax between well-structured learning, was the perfect balance between hard work and not feeling overwhelmed. Would have loved some tea and coffee provided, but thankfully the central location made nabbing some fairly painless. By the end of the course we were all knackered, but very satisfied and feeling immensely accomplished. Again, I cannot praise Joe enough. He made every aspect fun and engaging, and the experience was made by his dedication, patience, and humour.
- Q. How satisfied you were with your TEFL Tutor? A. As I said, Joe was absolutely wonderful. He made each of us feel listened to, appreciated, and at home in the environment. His humour and his dedication and rapport with us really made the weekend, and we all felt very comfortable in every aspect of the day. It would not have been the same without him, and he made us all feel confident and very fulfilled by the end of the weekend. He's a true asset.
- Q. How satisfied you were with the classroom element of the course? A. The teacher (Neil) was very informative, friendly and made each day fun and entertaining. Any questions we had were answered to the full and I left feeling confident about what I had been taught. The opportunity to 'hold a lesson' gave me confidence and experience of what it will be like to plan and hold a proper lesson.
- Q. How satisfied you were with your TEFL Tutor? A. Neil was full of information and was very entertaining and friendly making the lessons fun.
- Q. How satisfied you were with the classroom element of the course? A. The lesson was my best ever experience in a classroom. Despite being an intensive course, the teacher managed to keep all students interested and active. The materials have been transferred through clear and innovative techniques. Specially, the icebreaker was so effective in getting all the students closer to each other and making a very warm and friendly atmosphere for learning.
- Q. How satisfied you were with your TEFL Tutor? A. She is an extremely professional, experienced, and dedicated teacher. She knows how to get the attention of all students and make them to participate in class activities. She explains every subject very clearly and with patience.
