As someone with no prior experience in teaching, the two-day 10 hour TEFL classroom methodologies course made me more confident in planning... lessons and knowing what to teach students at different levels. The instructor, Michelle Benson, gave a well structured course that covered a lot of important topics. We had to plan a short lesson on the second day, and Michelle gave us very great feedback and what was good and what we can improve on. I would recommend this to anyone who is starting out in teaching English.read more
