I have been studying the TEFL Diploma course through i-to-i since August of this year. I am an experienced teacher of more than 20years and my specialism as an Assistant Head Teacher was pedagogy. After all those years the thing that still gets my heart racing is getting that balance right in the classroom and seeing children/teenagers thrive in their learning. I'll tell you something, I am approaching this course with the utmost humility. Having been a training facilitator of a different sort myself, I can truly say that I am honoured to be a student again with i-to-i. The course material is top quality especially with no one at your side giving instruction. They have certainly put me through my paces and despite experience, I have been accumulating exciting new ways to teach my new subject matter. I find the constant testing - tests of various levels - extremely useful not only to test new knowledge but also to stimulate the thought processes and keep you on your toes. I have now completed the 180 hour leg of the Diploma and can without a doubt say that I am equipped to teach my new subject. Lots to learn still but confidence to stand in front of a class is key which is what I have achieved. I have to mention my amazing tutors who have graded my assignments. They are very consistent and they certainly don't pull any punches! Again here my learning and outlook was broadened because of their meticulous and timely feedback. I know this review is rather lengthy but one last thing has to be mentioned and that is the endless support of resources and lesson ideas that are available to one. I am literally still astounded. I'm busy applying for jobs already with the help of the sister company! i-to-i simply put is a blueprint for success whichever path you choose to follow. Don't delay!
