The content was very relevant and structured well. The assignments were coherent with the content and gave an opportunity to the learner to put the learnings to full use. Any queries regarding the course were answered in a timely manner and with accurate information. As a former teacher, this course helped me to get back to my passion of teaching by providing me the platform to make lesson plans and create activity-based student engagements that motivated me to work on these projects with enthusiasm. The course content was an eye opener in itself where it challenged the conventional classroom methods and provided opportunities to build a lesson plan that had more of engaging activities than raw grammar based approach. Working on every assignment gave me the confidence that I could start teaching with a purpose. I could literally imagine every assignment being played out in a real classroom that made it very relatable. The evaluator’s feedback was immensely helpful in understanding the requirement and re-align the finished product accordingly. The detailed feedback given was very encouraging and after I completed my first module, I could hardly wait to complete my second module. The evaluation was done at a quick pace that eliminated any gaps in continuing with the modules. Overall, a very satisfying experience in completing the course.

It was worth while and i learnt different skills of teaching. I was expecting more , maybe my expectations were too high. I was expecting to see something like ppp model and the rest. Also, ways and how to know the target language.

My 120 hour TEFL course at Asian College of Teachers was a relaxed yet comprehensive learning experience. Right from the time I applied I was comfortable with the approach of the ACT staff. The feedback I received about my assignments were productive and constructive. I am happy that I took up this course.

All the sessions and inputs are of practical use. It seems that they have been prepared after many years of experience. I realised that I was not using these techniques while teaching and this could have been the reason for my performance not being up to the mark. I also realised that the course material contained solutions to a lot of problems that I was facing while teaching. I was not expecting that the course shall be so useful but once I started reading the course material, I realised that each and every page of the course material provided precious tips to teach better. The tests were also designed well and it was not easy to secure pass marks. All the questions were understanding based and I would not have been able to clear the tests if I had only memorised the course content

I had a good experience to learn things on myself.. I had to read the phases and understand them myself.. this improved my reading and thinking skills. I have got to learn many New examples that can be used to make the kids learn the language easily. Also this course has helped me to make proper lesson plans and the time management for certain age group of children. In all I am satisfied with my course.

It was a great, educative course. I learnt many new concepts through study materials, videos and learnt how to make teaching enjoyable without pressurizing the children, how to teach them practically with the help of activities making the atmosphere friendly especially for young learners, the language and style that is used in Business english-how to write contracts and do negotiations in a very interesting manner without making the students lose interest and feel bored. Overall, it was a fruitful positive experience for me. Of course all this was possible with the help of my co-ordinator whose timely guidance and support helped me to reach my targets and improve my skills.

I want to thank you for giving me the experience i have had during this course. It was more comprehensive than i thought, and has given me more questions than answers (but in a positive way!). I understand more now than i started, and has given me a confidence that i can start at least as a teacher. It has humbled me as a beginner, to gain more experience first, and applying new skills and skills taught here in the course first hand.

it was a great experience wherein i learnt how to manage the class, what to teach the students-the skills to be enhanced. It was very informative,especially the basic course on ELT and the type of students one has to handle how to manage in class with mixed students, how to make the class interesting by using tasks. The importance of role play, student activities, wherein the students get the practical exposure to all the 4 skills.
