- Q. How satisfied you were with the classroom element of the course? A. I really liked the 'giving a lesson' part. It helps to know what you could work on for the future. It took a lot of the fear off of the whole idea. But I wasn't happy with the location of the class. It's not in a safe area of Pretoria especially driving home afterwards at night. And Manhattan Hotel gives a church group one of their conference rooms on a Sunday for their church service, it was really disturbing to try and concentrate on what's being taught with singing and preaching coming through the walls.
- Q. How satisfied you were with your TEFL Tutor? A. Our tutor had the perfect balance between humour and seriousness. The lessons were explained clearly and our tutor was able to answer any given question. I enjoyed attending the class.
- Q. How satisfied you were with the classroom element of the course? A. Iona's years of practice was evident. The class was informative and fun. The pace was fast when it needed to be and slower when necessary. We didn't have to sit down all day and take copius notes. She engaged with us all day long and gave necessary relief from the basement classroom.
- Q. How satisfied you were with your TEFL Tutor? A. Iona's teaching made sure everyone was included. No hiders in the background. The small group work built confidence. She didn't own the classroom - we all did. The things Iona taught stayed in my memory. The hours flew by in a good way.
- Q. How satisfied you were with the classroom element of the course? A. First of all, the course was a real eye opener for me....the idea that each lesson required so much planning and organisation had not really crossed my mind. Our course lecturer, Emma, was superb. She was encouraging, informative and set a very high standard for the class to reach to in such a short period of time.
- Q. How satisfied you were with your TEFL Tutor? A. Emma was excellent.....she had a no-nonsense approach yet managed to cater to the the different levels of each student. She was able to teach a huge amount of information to us in a short time and did it in such a way as to make it memorable
