I think what I liked most about the course was that it helped me see the learning process from a learner’s perspective and learn to set student learning objectives. Before taking the TESOL course, I had nearly 8 years’ experience in teaching English as a foreign language, but while taking the course I realized that I used to set activity and involvement objectives rather than mastery/student learning objectives in my lesson plans. I was hesitant at the beginning, wondering if I would be able to go smoothly through all modules and phases; but as I started reading, analizing all contents and taking notes (of course also taking into consideration the suggestions made by my trainer after completing each assingment) I learned to prepare more student-centered, enjoyable and effective lessons. I tried to do my best and I felt satisfied with what I had managed at the end of the course. I learned details about planning for a learner-centered lesson, taught a learning-centered lesson and reflected on planning and teaching. All of them have changed my teaching style. I am more productive, creative and confident in teaching now. Overall, I found the experience valuable and absolutely worth my time. I would definitely recommend the course.

I want to say a big thanks, to my coordinators, Madam Nina, and Amrita, for their endless support. It wasn't easy from the beginning, especially during project writing and teaching practice session. But they were there to ensure everything was okay. I really want to thank you for adding value to my career as a teacher. I am a teacher of MIP Nursery School, Kuwait.

My friend named Jolean Gareeb is an esl teacher in china and recommended A.C.T to me.From the time i inquired on the A.C.T website, the service has been first class. Annie Josephs was an excellent tuitor/evaluator. The course was segmented appropriately, the mcq tests where well structured and the assignments helped me test my knowledge of the course material. There where many links between the content in the course and the assignments. Im very satisfied with all areas of this course and I hope to get a job in china and study further with A.C.T in the future. Thank you for your service.

"Don't put off for tomorrow what you can do today." Quotes are generally not 200 words, but short phrases or sentences. Students cannot memorize quotes or sayings 200 or more words. Quotes are intended to be brief, catchy and relative. Thank you for this course.

It was a very rewarding experience that will enable me to start my teaching career. It is the start of a journey for me to work and travel the world. I've learnt a lot of things from planning a lesson, implementing a lesson, evaluating, disciplining students and managing mixed group of classroom.

My experience in this course was quite challenging. I have never study anything about Education even though I am a lecturer in a University. Thus, it took me quite a lot of time to understand some of the teaching theories. It would have been greater if the advance diploma sections are more informative. The BESS was great but the YL was a bit disappointing.Overall, my experience was great and I have a lot of fun. It is unfortunate that I have family obligation and work duties that kinda make it difficult to travel aboard for a month to do a full 120 TESOL course, but I would be very interested if there are some teaching experience programs for me to attend.
