I felt that the course was very comprehensive. There's a lot to learn about lesson planning along with different methods of teaching. I have a copy of the textbook (which I highly recommend purchasing) and I plan to use this as a refresher when I'm teaching. Overall, I feel satisfied with my experience. I think it will provide a strong foundation for my career in teaching.

After researching various ESL courses and companies, I came across a review by an educator who gave this course and school high marks. My advisor Michael, answered all my questions and concerns about the course and cost. I then ordered the recommended course books and began my journey into ESL training. The course is comparable to any university class I have completed for my undergrad but straightforward enough that the learning process is easy to follow and complete. My instructor was available to answer my questions and gave me tips on how to be a great ESL teacher. After completing the course I used the school resources to find and complete my practicum, and i am still volunteering with the company today. I recommend this course and school to anyone looking for ESL Certification. If you happen to be an veteran there is an available discount to help cover the cost of the course.

There's just no way I could have taught a class of 27 students, from 8 countries and 5 languages without the course. My students are pre-beginner to A2. Without the support, the resources, the practical tips and tools, I would have failed. Instead, I felt confident that I could teach them so each student improved at their own pace. Challenging, yes. And only doable because it's the course.

The 11-week online course opened my eyes of teaching: it teaches amazing unique skills needed for TEFL/ ESL. My instructor Ms Lynn Grantz (thank you !) and the admin were always by my side and ready to help. The course includes huge stuff-multiple lesson plans, latest approach methods and technique in TEFL and above all 20 hours teaching practicum. It’s the best course for the new teachers and the best above best for those who are already teachers. Someone might feel it’s expensive, but I assure it’s worth investing for building a career abroad. I request ITA , please don’t forget your ex- students , (though I am in ALUMNI) and keep mailing with latest news. Thank you ITA for giving me a chance. Thank you Ms Lynn

The ITA program is an absolute worthy investment! I have always wanted to complete my TEFL. Just by reading reviews (and doing research) about the institution, I made the right choice of becoming a student in August 2023. Here's why people should join ITA in random order: 1) The assignments are not intensive. They're completely doable/ easy to manage regardless of employment status. 2) Resources are extremely helpful! There are multiple guides to help navigate your experience. You're never lost b/c everything is straight-forward. ITA staff is always available to clarify any concerns or confusion by phone and email. 3) Class material(s) are already included in your tuition. You don't have to pay for extra materials unlike college students. 4) Teaching English w/o prior skills seems insane! But the experience will leave you humbled, especially if teaching is your career of interest. ITA also offers lifetime status as an ITA member with no TEFL expiration period--it's always valid. There is nothing to lose!
