American TESOL Institute’s Kolkata TEFL program has gained significant popularity in recent times. Kolkata is not just the cultural capital of India but also one of the major tourist destiantions. Kolkata is also a central point in eastern India from where many exotic locations can be explored. The trainers are good, accommodation is excellent and most importanlty the food in Kolkata is delectable. An internship is also attached along with the TESOL course program. The short term internship can be either in India or in Thailand depending on the preference of the person.
TEFL India Alumni Review
My experience in TESOL course in Kolkata ( India ) was fantastic. The city is beautiful and rich in culture which makes it an excellent location for learning. Moreover the support form the team especially from the professional faculties of ATI made it great. Now I feel comfortable to teach anywhere in the world. Thanks ATI for helping me unleash my potentials.
I have been teaching classes part-time since 1997 at local community colleges and at State University where I am also a doctoral student. I have found my teaching experience to be both turbulent and rewarding. From American TESOL institute’s TESOL course with teaching practice that I have gained my greatest strength: “To not give up, but rather to try, try again”. This course structure was designed so beautifully which help someone feel confident along with a solid support from the professional faculty members.
American TESOL Institute is a worldly accepted institute. So I presume that certificate which is accepted all around the world. As I am working in a training Centre under the Ministry of Manpower of Oman, this certificate is very valuable for me.
I had a wonderful three weeks in Kolkata. I love Kolkata and ATI. Thank you very much for the ATI and all the teachers and staffs. This training period is really an unforgettable time in life. Thank you very much.
The start date was the right time for me. The price was good. The location was good & ATI has the atmosphere I was looking for. The teachers were fantastic. It was a very handsome experience, utilizing your natural ability to build on basic materials, creating a fun and engaging experience for yourself as a teacher and enhancing the experience for student.
Kolkata is an amazing city. I have been so happy here and am eager to work in India as a teacher. I hope to use my newly developed skills to the best of my ability here. I am sad to leave for holidays before work but will be taking a long internship to make up for my absence in the internship. ATI was a phenomenal experience

I am a science graduate who switched over to teaching of English. I have been teaching English for the past 15 years. I have observed that students have difficulty in speaking and writing. By the time they come to high school it is so too late to help them. Therefore, when they leave the school they neither can fluently nor write proposal. Therefore, I wanted to know how to develop the speaking and writing skill in students. Hence, I joined ATI.
I am Bangalorean. I have lived all my life in the south. This is my first visit to east India. Kolkata looks like an ancient city, with very old buildings. We see alternate sights of old and new. Some places or areas are very modern, new and an adjacent area is old and stinking. Such a contrast! We have a very good transport system, Varieties of them metro, bus, train, auto, cycle rickshaw, boats, train etc. it’s a very big place. Fruits, vegetable and flowers are available in plenty and very delicious sweets.

A textbook would have been useful (may be picture book included in the course).
The trainer was well prepared for the classes.
Why have you chosen to do an English Teacher Training course?
I have chosen to be a teacher, because I might idealize someone whom I consider the best teacher in the world. As a child, I was an average student in class and never use to top the class. But when I reached higher secondary, I was inspired by a wonder teacher named Mrs. Indu Arora. She taught me that any dream was possible only when you start working on it. She was the one who motivated me and helped me in developing in understanding in such a way that not only in her subject but also in the entire subject I started doing excellent job.
For some, a teacher is simply a person who informs student about “necessary information” like maths formulas, historical facts or literary work as grammar rules for, it is much more. Teachers give their students not only their knowledge but also their passion.
Moreover, teaching a subject helps you learn a subject. You will never learn a topic better than when you start teaching it. Teaching helps you to dig deeper and learn more about the subject.
Therefore, that is why I opted for teaching English us a subject and I am here to learn and understand more about it.
“Teaching is not about teaching a subject it’s about making your students feel good about them and helping them to realize and fulfill their dreams.”
Why have you chosen to do an English Teacher Training course?
English is one of the most commonly and widely used languages in the world. It is a very poetic language as well as helps one to impress oneself very easily.
English language has gained importance over the last few decades and is now accepted and spoken in most countries. Due to its growing significance, there are many resources available which helps to learn this language. However when you are dealing with the new or young learner it should be presented in a very simplified and interesting manner. Since the demand for English language has increased, so has the demand for English teaches. When you enroll yourself for English teacher training course, you get the first hand insight from experienced teachers regarding this language. You also meet people from different backgrounds and places who help who help you to add on to your knowledge awareness. You also learn the techniques of teaching and planning the lessons for different groups according to their needs. All these things along with the teaching practice sessions help you to prepare yourself for live situations and handle participants skillfully.
People not only learn from their teachers but also look up to them as their role models. I would love to do this course and spread the knowledge to everyone who needs it.
Why have you chosen to do an English Teacher Training course?
I am fifty-five years old and I want to be working until I am seventy-five years done. Teaching is the only profession that allows you to grow old in age and knowledge in linearity I have quit my jobs as HR Exec. to take up this course to quality to teach English in Malaysia eventually after acquiring some teaching experience in India and China.
I know I have the skills to engage students to be motivated in general participation. I believe teaching English us the whole works of personal development of the students regardless of age group.
In addition, I derive immense satisfaction and pleasure in seeing there tiny accomplishments in the students.
Why have you chosen to do an English Teacher Training course?
I want to be a nurse, so why have I traveled half way across the world to learn about prepositions? Three reasons come to mind, the first of which is perhaps true for most of my classmates; as well, I love to travel. Far off places hold an appeal; for me that no designer hand begs can ever possess.
In addition, although I am thrilled at the thought of easing a patient’s aches and pains, nursing is fairly rigid and procedural practice. Teaching will afford me a creative outlet that makes the exhaustion of some days completely worthwhile once I see and hear the lovely sound of doors opening for students who were stuck and demoralized in a dead en sort of life here to fore.
Lastly, I hope to learn TESOL because it’s a job and one that a person can be proud of knowing that they are offering up a small but mighty chance understand the funny things we do and have done since time immemorial. (Moreover, if that does not happen, at least I can vote with my wallet!)
Why have you chosen to do an English Teacher Training course?

I chose to do this project because it was the better alternative to online learning. It is based in Phuket, which was a major draw card and did not disappoint.

Why have you chosen to do an English Teacher Training course?
Although I am a trained primary teacher, having passed out from Mt. Hermon Teacher’s training college, Darjeeling, I feel I need this internationally recognized training to sharpen my skills and to enable me to teach English in countries outside India.
I have been teaching in the Primary and middle school overseas but was never allowed to teach English as I was of Indian origin. Therefore, I ended up teaching mainly mathematics in addition to other subjects.
For fifteen years, I have taught in IGCSE schools in, I have Abu Dhabi and Egypt. Though I have held a position of headship in the Junior School, I have never been permitted to teach English. Now, I feel with this TESOL certification added to my belt and the new skills and techniques I will acquire, it will be possible for me to teach this subject internationally. My confidence and skills are a bit rusty now but I feel with professional help and guidance I could also be a part of a faculty imparting a globally unifying language like English, which happens to be my mother tongue.
Why have you chosen to do an English Teacher Training course?
Teaching is not just my profession it is my passion .I have been a lecturer in past five years and believe me I am still all enthusiastic to learn. This flair of teaching and learning made me to take up the course in English literature. After completing my masters in English, I have been constantly looking for courses in English, which can give me the exposure I am looking for. When I read about TESOL I thought this is it, this course is going to help me grow academically as well as it will expose me to different cultures. (We) can travel around the world, learn different cultures and eventually come back and teach our students in India. Therefore, I thought TESOL will make me a better teacher. I always work hard to inculcate human values in my students, which is the dire need of the hour. More than anything, I inspire my students to be good human being who can stand up for the sake of truth and honor. Thus, today’s students can be tomorrow’s prompt leaders, that are what, and that gives me the highest satisfaction in the completely wide world.
I have (lot of) hope that TESOL is going to equip me with lot of innovative teaching methods, which will help me, will my students heart and be an inspirational teacher.
Why have you chosen to do an English Teacher Training course?
The word teacher tells us about a person/an individual who provides knowledge, guides us to follow the norms and certain aspects of life correctly/appropriately. He/she in other words has to be more patient. Understanding, caring so that he/she can explain his students with ease. In other words, ‘Teacher’ is a person who provides light (knowledge) through his teachings, the same way English is a language, which is spoken, is most parts of the world and has now become a way of communications to resolve problems, to provide views, ideas etc. So teaching English to students of other language is important. So that they can have that self-confidence in them to move around the world and to communicate with people easily.
My main intention for this course was to help children to learn the language, which is important in today’s world and I would like to travel different parts of the world and see different customs, religion etc.
Why have you chosen to do an English Teacher Training course?
I chose to do an English Teacher Training course because I want to teach English to groups of children and adolescents who do not handle this language as apart of them. The teaching is an activity that I like and I have developed many times with different groups of people and ages. In addition, I found this opportunity to grow in knowledge. I know this area is a great strength in all that I liked to do in the educational area. I know that through training new opportunities and new ideas is coming to teach English properly, meaning that those who are learning require very good guidance and support in order to acquire the new language in their daily lives.
I chose ATI because I thought it would give me global exposure and teach me many innovative and new techniques of teaching.
I was inspired by the marvel city of joy and I always wanted to visit Kolkata. All the things written in the marvel turned out to be true the city of full of joy. I loved the sweets. People were very friendly except one particular trainer of mine, God knows why? But she hated my guts. But Kolkata was fun.
Basic, young learner and receptive seemed to me most helpful.
The trainers were good and communicative in class. They were always prepared for the classes.
Infrastructure is really good.
I chose ATI because I received good comments about it from friends.
My time in Kolkata was good and the time for me passed very fast. My classmates during this course were very nice.
With ATI I feel good because I grow more in knowledge, ideas about this activity and also is helpful for my future activities.
The contents of this course were good and practical. The materials in this course were helpful, but are good more ideas about materials.
Every aspect that we see is useful, because you are going to apply ascending to the content.
It is good to mention or give more ideas about materials in the website or books.
The trainers communicated the class material clearly and the trainer has been well prepared for the classes. They also made the class much interesting.
The training site was very good. The people were good and helpful.
I like the American system and teaching. All Kolkata was in India where I normally feel safe.
Initial days were a little frightening but loved all the rest of the days. I can stay here forever.
The content of the course is exhaustive. The materials in the course initially mind-boggling but clearer towards the end.
The demos/practical demos by students/input all I should say was helpful for me.
I guess it can be spread over 4 weeks. In addition, we should know in advance, what the students know so that our lessons were not boring for them. We should also be told of some of the school rules.
The trainers communicated the classes very clearly but wondered at the relevance of the assignments give to write. The trainer was well prepared for the classes.
I chose ATI to know the method of teaching English language. It helped me to come off the mental block of teaching English language. It helped me to know where I am lacking. I will really work hard and prove myself to be an excellent teacher and also a good English language trainer.
Kolkata is very good place, comfortable, enjoyable and people here are very cooperative. Kolkata is cool place. ATI helped me to interact and know different people, different method of reaching etc.
The teaching methods, trainers, there encouragement seemed to me helpful.
The trainers were well prepared for the classes. Overall, the trainers were excellent.
Infrastructure is sufficient according to the format for the course.
It is the gate way of career as a language teacher at international level – highly reputed – placement agencies, employers ask for it - to upgrade my skills and knowledge – ATI is the only opinion in India.
Very enriching, learning experience. Kolkata is a nice comfortable city. It is cheaper compared to other cities in India. I feel whatever I learnt here has changed the way of my paper assessment and teaching methods.
Amrita, Anjana and Sangita were excellent in content, experience and training methods. They were very friendly, co-operative and always ensured that the training objective is achieved.
The materials in the course and the contents of the course were excellent.
How to keep effective filter low, tips on paper checking, communicative approach, how to set context, strategies of teaching receptive skills- all these helped me a lot in way of teaching.
The trainers well prepared for the class and the have effectively managed the class. I found them responsive to my queries and problems.
The training site was good and well equipped with modern teaching aids and educational techniques and technology.
I appreciate the efforts taken by all the trainers to upgrade us with innovative techniques for teaching. They were always very encouraging and positive.
The first reason was practical – A.B.A. is not required and the price was right. The second reason was I thought learning and practicing teaching in an unfamiliar environment as well as in a concentrated period, would be closer to the actual experience of teaching in the field.
I was not prepared to be cut off from family abroad this much. Informing nonnative trainees ahead of time about the difficulty one may face getting a SIM card or that facilities often strike here would be appreciated. Also, please let us know ahead of time how many teaching practice outfits and the exact dress code would prevent trainers from packing incorrectly.
The materials and ideas for class activities, along with the reorientation toward facilitation and low affective filters rather than lectures.
The trainers were well prepared for the class. They have encouraged me to make teaching in my career.
Please provide more computers. The guesthouse should include internet access as well, even if for a fee.
I chose to admit in ATI to learn how to teach English and improve on techniques.
The contents and materials are good enough. The aspects of the lessons with the trainers and TP are seemed to me helpful. Over all the trainers are excellent. The environment is comfortable, relaxing with the right teaching aids.
Try to incorporate the use of visual aids like a smart board and projector. Have more soft boards for trainees to use.
It is a great way to enter the teaching world. My aunt suggested me for ATI.
It is great to be a part of ATI. All the trainers are very helpful, learnt a lot. Over all excellent experience.
Aspects of the peer teaching, foreign language seemed to me most useful.
The trainers were overall excellent.
The training site was great.
While researching all the available institutions I found ATI is interesting as I got lots of testimonials and feedback from website.
As I am residing in Kolkata, so, the experience was good with ATI. I enjoyed a lot.
The content of the course was good and the materials seemed to me average. Teaching techniques is most useful aspect in teaching practice. I think time would have been managed in better way and the course should be extended up to 4 weeks.
The teachers are good and supportive.
The training site was seemed to me average.
I always wanted to be teacher. I heard about ATI from my friend Pradeep who has already done his training from ATI-Kolkata. Therefore, it encouraged me to fulfill my dream.

different places in Kolkata, eat delicious food atc. The ATI helped me to gain confidence in teaching and different ways of teaching.
The course content and the materials were good. Young learners really helped me to know how to gain attention of young children.
I found the course should be lengthier with different projects. Overall, the trainers were excellent.
The rent for the room is expensive. Kindly make it little economical.
ATI is world-recognized institute. I had not been to Kolkata so it was the other reason to come to ATI, Kolkata. I did not know we would get such good and adorning teachers for our class.
The experience was very overwhelming. I did not think it would be so enjoyable. I enjoyed the course. The last week was very intense. However, I enjoyed, as I have to learn from all the other people and trainers.
The course contents and the materials are very good. The trainers are overall excellent. I loved the school.
The course was short and less expensive than other courses
Kolkata was very nice, but the institute seemed more concerned about money than teaching. We were given contradictory information many times.
The contents of the course and materials in the course were good. Teachers gave me good advice to first time. The lesson planning was very useful. The input sessions were nice. The teaching practice was very helpful. Some time it was unclear which material we would use in a real classroom setting and what was given to us as general knowledge. In addition, I wanted to be a teacher and they were unable to convince me completely. It seemed that trainers got a little impatient when questions were asked.
The distance between the school and guesthouse cut into learning time. There should be better resources. We were barely given any time to research on the net.

I have chosen TEFL because it offers so many opportunities to travel and learn. I love teaching, I’ve always aspired to become a teacher and this seemed the only way to experience it without first attending university. It offers me a chance to see if I like it or not and also to see a beautiful foreign nation, as well, I get to test my skills in the field I’m always excited about learning new things; knowledge is what I strive for. I find that there is a large demand for English in this world, and that by learning/knowing it, it’s easy to get ahead. If I can help people by any means, I feel fulfilled. That is why I chose to take TEFL because it shall be a very rewarding career. My main goal is to help people learn for a changing world, as well as adapt to this environment and in the process, learn a thing or two about myself.
I have always been a people person, but near so much out of my comfort zone. I find that this TEFL course requires me to be confident with all people, no just the ones. I am familiar with that is also something I strive for.
The main things I hope to get out of this course are also the reason I have taken it. Confidence, fulfillment and aspiration, they are why I am here, they will help me, help others.
I enjoy traveling and visiting new places but especially I like the idea of going to new countries and living and working there. Teaching English is one way to achieve this. In addition, I love the English language and its literature so helping people appreciate it interests me.
Thirteen years of government job and seven in the private found me in a rut. Therefore, out of the blues, I decided I’ll give a shot in teaching. The Principal of one of the best private schools in Bhutan ‘Druk School’ was kind enough to let me in, in spite of no teaching skills nor experience. Therefore, for nine months I taught English and History to grades 7 to 9. I realized I enjoyed teaching and though I should have started earlier, I guess it is never too late.
While surfing the net, I came across ATI course in Kolkata. I was ecstatic and realized this was exactly what I needed to enable me to become an efficient and effective facilitator (actually, I would have used the word ‘teacher’, but I just learned today that it is an outdated word and ‘facilitator’ is more appropriate).
Moreover, TESOL opens up more opportunities for teaching abroad. I would love to travel, get to experience other culture languages and people, while being able to contribute through teaching English, a language I am comfortable with.
That is why I enrolled for this course and I look forward to it.
I think that teaching is a very challenging profession and the English Teachers Training course will give me a great opportunity to travel and work at the same time. I also think that it is a great way to contribute to a community.
I realized that I have some good communication skill skills and wanted to improve them to reach their full potential.
I have chosen to take a TESOL course for three reasons:
1. As a stepping-stone to see if I will want to teach as a career.
2. To prepare me for employment as a voice and accent Trainer back in Chennai.
3. To obtain a skill I can use for wherever I live and travel in Asia.
I chose to do an English teaching training course because I wanted a change in what I was doing and wanted variety on my resume. I have wanted to live or work overseas for online and found this the perfect opportunity to do so.
As I finished college I was blessed enough to work in my own firm. At first, it seemed great handling consumers, managing employers, taking care of transactions etc. However, few years down the line it seemed boring the usually intensity days just seemed to get longer with stress and more stress as fur as rewarding no way. Even though it was small firm, it had its share of office politics.
My father started as school in his native village while taking change of the firm in the city. I was not ambitious as I was few years ago my business dreams came to halt as I wondered is this what I really want? Yes the many was good but what about simple things in life.
I am meditation teacher for the past 3 years that when I found that I enjoyed teaching more than shouting and being yelled at. My parents suggested I should contribute to the society we live in. I had few inner dreams inside of me like can I sit in a classroom for 8 hrs a day listening to teaching, taking notes, doing assignments. Thanks to god and my family and friends, they pushed me a lot.
Finally, I sat down and thought I knew I enjoyed traveling a lot but I did not travel, I did not enjoy being tied down in management and finally it was because of my teachers that I am here today so I thought I would try my level best to give something back to this world.
I chose to do an English Teacher Training course as I intend to take up language teaching as my profession. I want to enhance my teaching methodology and techniques. Doing this course will help me to understand the problems that I might face when I am working with non-English speaking people. This course will help me in making my English lessons more enthusiastic, realistic and of course more interactive. I am sure this course will groom my personality to face challenges in my teaching career.
The course seemed to have a professional - looking website.
I am grateful to the staff for investing the time and energy to deliver as the most up to date and relevant teaching methods and materials in a professional manner.
The teaching materials and the course contents are adequate and sufficient but more teaching time would help.
The aspects of lesson planning, teacher (instructor) modeling of methods seemed to me most useful.
The trainer stimulated our interest very much. The simplicity of creating a lesson plan proved that it is not a difficult job.
The trainer was quite responsive to our problems and queries. The performances of the trainees seemed to better than I anticipated.
Classroom size was adequate, although it would be nicer if there were more ventilation in the room.
I choose ATI because firstly, it is in Kolkata, the place I like. Secondly, after having met them before joining course I found the ATI as a reliable and recognize institute.
Experience with ATI was great. This is an institute, which fulfill its commitments. Provide you and guide you when ever necessary. ATI has staff, which has a sound knowledge about their work. Dedicated staff and of course professionals. Good to be a part of ATI. Wish them all the best for future.
The contents and the materials in the course are quite appropriate. The trainer communicated classes well. The trainer stimulated our interest in the subject in well manner. The infrastructures of ATI, Kolkata is fabulous. The facilities provided by them are too good. I think overall that it is an appropriate place, well equipped and well maintained. Good job.
I choose ATI because it was accessible in India. I always wanted to come here. ATI has a good reputation, cheap price.
I had a great fun working and learning with you guys!
Good luck for future.
The course content of this course is interesting and presented. This course did not have too much material but the books were useful. Lesson planning and lesson practice were most useful for us.
The trainers communicated the class materials clearly and they were well prepared for the classes. The trainer organized the classes effectively.
I liked its big classroom and guesthouse was nice but far from the training site. The location is nice and lots of restaurants and shops to have fun and facilities.
I choose ATI because of its nearest location from Bhutan and there are more openings for teaching abroad. It is useful course. Trainers and trainees are excellent. Kolkata grew gradually on me and I am thing of coming back soon. Guest house is good.
The contents and materials of the course are good. The teaching practice classes seemed to me most useful.
Along with this I would like to add that, perhaps some more TP could be included. TP could have been from the school textbooks.
The trainer communicated the class material clearly. They were well prepared for the class and organized the class time effectively.
The good though it would have been nice if there were some couches and TV in the living room of the guesthouse. In addition to that I would like to say that the course duration could have been extended 4 weeks.
I choose ATI as they have intensive coaching sessions and the remain I got them from the net to be very good. Now I that I finished the course I want to start all over again.
This course is not an certificate but a personal triumph for me. The city of joy has brought many things in my life. 3 weeks is such a short time to experience this city. The ATI has been very friendly to all of us and I enjoyed this country more than my graduation in UK and Malaysia.
The content and the materials of the course were excellent. Community activities and support to student seemed to me most useful.
The trainers were all good in communication class material and management of class timing. They were prepared for the classes and well responsive to trainees’ problems and quires. The trainers were quite well to stimulate our interest in teaching.
I choose firstly because it was in Kolkata, secondly because it was the cheapest, thirdly because when I came to visit the school it seemed very good and professional. The staff seemed nice, too.
I liked Kolkata very much. It is interesting, varied and fun city. Where we were living was a random subways but this gave us a real insight into the life here.
ATI has been great! The classes were fun and the teaching practice was always a surprise. The kids were great.
The course had everything you need to get started in teaching just enough. Materials used and supplied were good. Teaching practice and lesson plans seemed to me most useful. The guest session with the storytelling teacher was great.
The teacher communicated the class materials clearly. They were well prepared for the classes as well as they organized the class time effectively possible considering limitations, strikes, holidays etc.
I am not sure whether the trainer or the TP did stimulate my interest in the subject. The trainers were mostly responsive to our problems and queries.
The accommodation was too far from the school. Considering how much we paid could not we have had an apartment never the school or city? In addition, furnished at least a table, chairs, and hot water would have been good. The school itself it is great, compact but with everything.
It may be a more formalized internship or job session in the course. It seemed like if we wanted anything along those lines we had to ask repeatedly.
I choose ATI because I wanted to spend some time in Kolkata and something different from what I was doing before.
The experience was great. I love Kolkata and to do this course here and this is an enriching experience.
The content of the course and materials are great.
The text on TEFL was really useful. It was a good reference for ideas on activities for class. I am sure I will refer to it when I start teaching. I did not like the session when we had the guest speaker. She was supposed to teach us how to teach grammar through storytelling. I do not think she conveyed the information that was wanted so clearly.
Over the entire site was clean and nice.
Finally, the course was great! I am glad to go this route and I look forward to applying what I learned in the classroom!
I choose the course in ATI because they accepted me even though in my only 19. It was awesome, best experience for my first time in India.
The content of this course and material are very good.
The aspect of foreign language course, lesson planning and definitely the peer teaching and school experience were most useful for me.
The teachers were very affective in clearing class materials and time management. They stimulated our interest in our subject especially they were quite responsive to trainees’ problems and queries.
The training site was very nice, cool and clean.
Thank you so much and I finally know what I want to do.
Besides being a consultant editor for a lifestyle magazine in Chennai, I also teach English to expatriate. I have students from 3 years to 45years old, and most often they have do not know even simple English phrases. I have my own methodologies, which include drawing, singing, role play etc. which I implement according to the student. (Whichever works best for each student).
With TESOL, I hope to learn and correct my teaching methodologies and make my teaching much more effective. Because these students depend on me, and for expatriates it’s a survival issue, I want to make sure I guide them right.
My intention is to learn about Chinese culture, and even the language I know that I need something meaningful to do once I an away from my own culture, and therefore my intention is to teach English and be a Chinese student at the some time. The reason I attended the TEFL Course with ATI is that I don’t want feel as if I am cheating. I know that I could find a teaching job in china (at least most probably), but want to be honest: first learn to teach.
I enjoy helping other. I know what its like to learn on another language so do to others as you would want done for you. I love to teach already so I believe this TESOL course will help me to excel in my ability to teach. This TEFL certificate from ATI will also allow me to teach in many parts of the world so I can share my skill with others. I love people and interacting.
I have chosen to do an TEFL teacher training course,. As I would like to help the professionals I work with. Effective communication in English is a means sharing information with clients and also being able to comprehend what is said or read and executing it.
As most professionals in corporate in India have difficulty communicating effectively in English I find this course will help me help these professionals enhance their skills in the four skill areas – L R S W. I want to be able to help professional over me their mental block towards communicating effectively in English.
I have been a student of informatics in a Warsaw university for the last 3years, and also privately teaching students, although it wasn’t exactly legal to do it. But, TESOL came to my mind roughly six months ago. Eastern Europe is a country/place with so many paradoxes , I have been teaching meditation there and found that it was one to the best places I could find out about the fun native to humanity. I would like to do a research on human interaction. And the best way to start that is by teaching. And therefore I can find out more about people. This is the reason why I chose TESOL. And if I succeed in it, I would go about a journey, and do what I like best, explore humanity. In its purest form
To get qualified as a teacher in English Language. The course is an opportunity to further expand horizons of my career as a trainer and teacher. English language has been an interest with regard to it she correct pronunciation and use of right words in the right place. The skills Thai I acquire shall help me learn the art and science of English speaking as well as teaching the same to students in the most simple and friendly way. I wish to be known as an expert in the field of teaching and training for which the course shall add value and help me come out in flying colors.
English language always fascinated me. As I am an avid reader, I enjoy the play of language. Currently my career requires me to teach English language to my Indian students. My students are employee of a knowledge process outsourcing firm, who have to teach with English language. While I have been teaching, the methodologies I am using have been solely my own. I would love to learn the current methodologies of teaching, creating a lesson plan and the different ways to suit the various levels of learners. I am eager to learn the TESOL way of teaching English to various groups of learners both adults and young learners.
I am teacher by profession. I worked in Kerala for one year as a guest lecturer in college level and abroad six year in Saudi Arabia as a school teacher. I am looking forward to work as English teacher in Middle East. The instillations over there need certification courses like TESOL. I believe TESOL will help me in exploring my career and so my dream will come true.
As a teacher involved in English language training, there have been times when I am faced with many classroom challenge. My new experience of teaching a set of students from a new cultural and language background has encouraged me to take up this course as I feel this would provide me tips on classroom activities and teaching methodologies specifically meat for my kid and students. This would also be an added qualification and a good learning experience as I would interact with people from different parts of the globe, thereby enabling me to enhance my skills as a teacher.
This course will inspire me as I give to others a language that will serve them well, throughout their lives. It will broaden my mind and bring out a side of me that ca help and touch other people. As I am passionate in bringing into the world, things I hold within… This course will get me to finally do that. To also see how others can learn from me. By being the person I am with the ability to pass on valuable knowledge can give amazing satisfaction and personal growth. It will be a new job and fulfilling as both the student and the teacher and grow and learn.

I have tutored off and on in India with Tibetan children and in Indian villages. I enjoyed this very much and wish to further this as a career. I often met people teaching overseas; all of whom greatly enjoyed this. I believe it will be very helpful in USA as well.
I recently became interested in teaching English because of the job opportunities given by having a TEFL certificate. I am interested in working while traveling and living in several countries.
My ambition is to be an English teacher, afterward English is an international language and the importance of English has increased a lot. The more English has become important, the more the importance of teaching English has also increased. So, I would like to be an English teacher, I think TESOL is necessary to be an English teacher, because TESOL is very useful to prepare for being a teacher. And I want to experience a lot through this program. And I would like to improve my English ability as well. So I have chosen this program.
I am a translator by profession, and work with mainly Japanese and English language. However, once I had an opportunity to teach English as a substitute teacher. Then I developed the interest for teaching and in future I wish to teach more than translate, with this in my mind I chose to do this course.
I am a Montessori Teacher and I love teaching. I was surfing the net when I came across this program. English language is widely spoken so here is a huge demand for an English Teacher. It is very challenging to teach English to speakers of other language and I would love to face this challenge.
I started school on my birthday, feb 1st. I took a 3 week teacher
training program, got my TESOL certificate, and can teach anywhere in
the world, except Japan and Korea, those two I need a degree of some
sort for.
My class started off with 11 students, only 3 foreigners the rest
Indian, than in the second week Petri from Finland dropped out without
a word. I became close friends with Neev, a young woman from Ireland.
We spent lot of time together during our last week and even after the
course was over.
The teacher Anjana is this really friendly, very experienced, fun,
outgoing, educated teacher with a heart of gold and a mind perfect for
teaching.
Lizy wanted to constantly go out of her way for me, so she woke up
early every morning to make me lunch for school and would make my
portion less spicy and salty and her family would get the usual. I
asked her not to do this, but it gave her such pleasure, that I ended
up just accepting it and not making a fuss.
I learnt more about teaching kids and adults in those 3 weeks than I
did in 22 years of my life before I came to India. Anjana focused
mostly on techniques and gave us a lot of advice that I wish all
parents and teachers learnt as well during parent and teacher training
(if there is a parent one). More than half the parents and teachers I
know could really benefit from this course. It is so obvious to me now
why students, teachers and parents have been failing all these years.
Now I’m no guru obviously, but I firmly believe that this course has
made me more accepting and understanding of people from all different
backgrounds and all different life experiences and all different ages.
I realize now that it’s not the parents’ or teachers’, or even the
students’ fault for how they act, it’s their upbringing and education.
Unbelievable how one person can influence us and set our lives for us.
It is up to us to get out of this routine/habit and find another way.
There is always another way. I hope that everyone who is not happy
with the way their life is now, finds another way. I wish that the
education system finds another way to approach children, especially in
America and Asia. Too strict and too military like.
In India there is a constant struggle with this issue as it happens
every day and too often. Suicide rates go up because teachers make
school too competitive and instead of recognizing students’ talent
and encouraging it, they focus on marks. Marks will only get you a
job, but the ones who are truly talented and who are not as bright in
studying, they are the ones shut down and merely glanced at, if at
all, and those are the ones who commit suicide or give up because the
teacher doesn’t care. Now it may not be the teacher’s fault, it could
be simply that the teachers are trained a certain way and so they are
forced to teach that certain way.
I learnt about students and how and why they lose confidence, focus,
and do not do well in school. It is often the teacher’s fault, not the
students’. In India there are 3 types of students; Intelligent,
Average and Slow. Most see the slow learners as mentally unstable, and
often these students are given drugs in Western countries, but it is
simply a way their mind works, they are slow, not stupid. A good
teacher is one who is patient and encourages these students not shuns
them and looks down upon them and ignores them.
A passionate teacher is one who takes the time to help these students.
Unfortunately many teachers do not have time to stay back after school
to help these students because they too have a life. The amount of
work the teachers have to do before and after a lesson are
unbelievable. And unfortunately there are many teachers who use
teaching as a power tool. Some were teased as a child and lived a
miserable childhood so they go out of their way to make it hard for
their students. Many teachers are happy and feel right when only 5% of
their class passes. They actually think they have done a good job
teaching. They make it hard on purpose, often making the lesson
suitable for the Intelligent group. I am aware of the way things are,
and I am aware of how I could make a difference and how I could be one
of the good teachers. Many techniques were demonstrated, and many
objectives were taught. Different levels of students, different views
and beliefs, I am interested in helping these students improve their
English and make it as easy as possible to learn the basics of the
language. I am grateful to the universe for sending me to India at
this time.
HI all,
Can you please let me know if TESOL course is equivalent to a TTC course in India, I mean will the local Indian Boards / Schools accept and recognize this course at par with a TTC course from an accredited institute.
Shall be happy to hear from Indian SChool Teachers/ Academicia

Regards,
Sush

Cheers

I have chosen to do an English teacher training course to upgrade myself with the latest teaching techniques for effective teaching. Nevertheless, I have to admit that I love to travel and wish to travel and work abroad. TESOL seemed to be required certification to be able for me to get a job abroad. This is what gathered from the internet and also from a friend who has successfully completed her course TEFL and is happy with her job in Hong Kong as a teacher. I have done my TTC and have around 6 years of teaching experience in schools as a Math’s and English teacher as well as a music vocals teacher, but TESOL seems to be promising in upgrading trainer skills with regards to rapid advance in English teaching. The opening promised by TESOL is also more appealing because of its validity on a global level opening a variety of opportunities to the ones with the real passion for teaching and traveling!
AS, I have been working as a lecturer in Baburia Institute of Engineering & technology, Vadodara, Gujarat. I have chosen an English teacher training course because in Gujarat or Vadodara, no one has done this course so if I show this certificate to my institute they will increase my salary and I can also get chance to work in gulf countries as an English teacher, I will go there on the basis of this certificate that’s why I have chosen to do an English teacher training course. Another reason for choosing this course is my brother is in UK and he has also informed me about this course, he has also told me that after doing this course I have good opportunities to teach English not only in India but all over the world. He has also informed me that on the basis of this course you can come here and you can get job in schools. All these are the strong reasons that lend me to do TESOL.
I have chosen to do an English Teacher Training for various reasons. Firstly, I did this so that I could have a better prospect in my teaching career and so that I could apply in better schools which pay quite well both in India and abroad. I did this course also because it would give me a chance to travel and see places and the different cultures therein and to learn something about those cultures, but I also chose this so that I could learn about how to teach the student. English using innovative ideas and thereby try and make their study of English more fun. Doing it that way would make them understand the language better and at the same time want to learn it too. It is with all these reason in mind that I chose this course.
I have been teaching English as a subject for more than five years and teaching is a passion for me, but I find that classroom teaching is quite boring where the teacher’s job is just to complete the syllabus. Therefore, I thought of teaching English language which would be more innovative and interesting. I also want to move out of my town, as I love traveling to different places and meeting different people. Then through the internet I came to know that I would be able to teach English in various countries after acquiring a TESOL certificate. So I chose to do this English teacher training course and transform my dream into reality.
The teaching methodology of the English language has taken many turns through the years. Globalization and rapid expansion of information has pushed English to the forefront to be the vehicle to transport. As a result researches have noticeable concern for the teaching methods and teaching practices of the English language. English is an ever evolving language that is changing everyday. Having been a teacher for the past twenty years has proved to me that teacher can get stuck in a rut if they continue to work in the same progressive change. I have therefore chosen to do this English teacher training course that keeps me abreast with current research and development of the English language. It is my belief that a teacher is a life long learner and at the age of forty two. I strongly believe that if I do not keep myself informed I would be of no good as a teacher. I understand from the information gathered from the website that a TESOL training is a requirement for teaching in schools outside India. This is another reason for doing the course.
English, as a language always fascinated me while I was young and my interest for the subject transformed into passion as I majored it from the University. With Globalization English learning has acquired a fresh momentum and that has pulled me to enroll for the English teacher training course wherein I can equip myself with the international standard in teaching. Having a post- graduate degree in English to my credit, I needed a formal certification in teacher’s training. TESOL, I felt, therefore not only will enrich me with the mechanics of language teaching but also broaden and sharpen my prospect of teaching outside the confine of my homeland where English is not very frequently spoken. Hence I think the main objective of taking TESOL course is not only to have a better facilitation but also to add value to those who are completely alien to the language

I have been teaching English for the last fourteen years. I believe that a teacher can be successful in his career only if he is updated both in methodology and training. I would like to be a successful teacher by being a part of TESOL. Since I am a teacher, I have ample opportunities to apply what I have learnt from TESOL. Moreover, I would get a lot of chances in other countries after I successfully complete my TESOL. I am very much interested in ESL and this training course would benefit me a lot by learning the latest techniques of teaching English. I am sure that I can improve my teaching after undergoing this training course. We get a lot of activities like games, group work, peer work etc from these courses which are sure to help us a lot. We also get the latest techniques of teaching grammar, listening vocabulary, reading, writing etc. by undergoing this training program. Above all, we participants various parts of India and other nationalities which gives is an opportunity to share teaching experience and make benefit out of it. These are some of the reasons why I took part in the training program.
I am presently working as professor of English in one of the private Engineering colleges in Andhra Pradesh. Right from eighteen years I am teaching students of Engineering, business administration and master of computer application. In addition I am training students for GRE, TOEFL & IELTS and also for placements on changes occurring in all walks of human life. Globalization and Industrialization brought changes in unimaginable speed. This made me realize that these changes demand appropriate pedagogical methods. To keep in pace with the changing world this TESOL program given me new insight of teaching techniques. I wish to remain as an effective teacher not just in India but across the globe. I strongly believe this program would enhance my career prospects and promote me to an international platform. This program is tuning me towards flexibility and accessibility. I want to become a TESOL facilitator.
I have chosen to do this English Teacher training course to gain better techniques and find better opportunities of English Language teaching. I hope at the end of this course, I will have serious insight into English language teaching. I also hope that training I get here would help me to devise new teaching methodologies, I am sure I will be able to take many teaching techniques that I learn here to my classroom back at my workplace. I am confident this course will keep my urge for life-long learning alive and help me better understand the challenges in ESL teaching.
I like teaching children and by having a TESOL certificate it will help me qualify as an effective teacher. I am planning to work as a teacher for few years and then pursue my masters preferably in linguistics or creative writing. I have heard that the experience of attending a TESOL program in very good, hence I have chosen this English teacher training course.
The world we live in today is a changed place. Rapid development has taken place in science and technology in the last half century. Knowledge had increased by leaps and bounds. New techniques are being discovered; new tools are pushing the frontiers of knowledge in almost every sphere of human activity. Language learning in not left behind either. I have been taught from school and college day’s traditional ways of teaching the language. But many of these theories are outdated and not relevant or have to be discarded and replaced by more advanced teaching techniques and methodologies that new research is unraveling as to the direction teacher has to take in dealing with new tools at his disposal. It is in this context that I have chosen to do this course, namely, to acquire the latest techniques to effectively teach English to others of which I am passionate about and secondly but not by any means the last; I trust this program will better my prospects in my teaching career.
The whole world has come under one roof because of the advent of latest technologies. English has become the lingua franca in this modern age. Teaching is a noble profession which requires passion and commitment to turn the young generation into literates for a glorious, better world. I am a teacher of English and have been teaching for quite a long time. My long years of experience in teaching have taught me that I have to refine my language skills which ultimately help the student for better language competence. I also realized that training would certainly help sharpen my teaching abilities. In this way I get an opportunity to do justice to my teaching profession. Especially I have chosen this TESOL teaching program to understand the teaching techniques to enhance my skills for better teaching abilities. Only a trained English teacher can teach English language skills far better than an ordinary qualified English teacher. Finally I would like to conclude by stating that every English teacher needs to be trained and benefit the student community.
I have been working as a soft skills trainer/facilitator and English tutor for almost all 3 years. Actually I am here to learn the methodology for teaching a language to upgrade my knowledge in English language. Since I cannot find and institute which offers this kind of course other than TESOL. Moreover I am very much interesting in going abroad as an English teacher, it’s my goal too. So I need a platform for improving myself as well as to make a path for my good. That’s why I have chosen English teacher training course TESOL. I hope I will be getting here what I am expecting
I have chosen to do this English teacher training course for several reasons. Firstly after so many years in teaching I have felt that my teaching techniques are so traditional and with no workshops or effective training course ahead I have decided that I am in a dire need to sharpen my teaching tools and make myself as professional as my superiors expect. Today, teaching is a challenging job and if we do not update our strategies & methodologies; we will harm our students and will be of no benefit to them. Secondly, I feel that as a teacher working for so many years, I am stuck in the same place. Everyone dreams of a promotion or change of career at some points in his profession. Thirdly, with globalization and the inflation of information, I came to the conclusion that working in the same place for a long time is not good. I feel it is a good to be an energetic and motivated person by shifting place. To do this, TESOL is the shortest way. A certification as such will pave the way of the teacher to work anywhere in the world. Above all, TESOL is the shortest way to a good salary, especially for those who are underpaid
Right from the childhood I have always been fascinated by the English language and have been a reasonably serious reader too. After my plus two 12th I want on to do my graduation in English honors. Subsequently I have worked as an English teacher in schools and also freelanced as a communicative English instructor. But over the period of time I started realizing that I had lot of hit a platform and also wanted to explore a new avenue and widen my horizons. That is when I chanced upon to hear about the TESOL course. I read the information available on the Internet, had telephonic conversation with the coordinator and realized probably this course in what I had been looking for. I believe this course might open up new vistas for me and realize my dream of picking up a job abroad as and when the opportunity arises. Moreover I feel I would be well equipped in the face of such an eventuality and would feel confident to handle the student in the appropriate way. These, I would say are the reasons that prompted me to join this course, and at the end of the third day I would like to state I am enjoying the classes and three cheers to Amrita for commanding our undivided attention.
Teaching is not only delivering lesson in the class but it is a learning process as well. A teacher should be a learner first if he wants to be a better and effective teacher.
I have chosen this course to teach English through right and effective method in order to achieve the teaching objective. My learners in Bahrain are non native speaker of English. Hence the problem in the LSRW skill of English. As a teacher my focus would be to facilitate the learning of English language in a systematic way.
TESOL program has been designed for the learner – teacher who would like to teach the non native speaker of English. This training will equip to facilitate teaching learning process. I would be able to teach them through interactive method and the teaching would be more fascinating from the learners’ point of view. Hence I feel that this training will exactly help me to do what I want to do for the non- native speaker of English.
I have been teaching English for the last ten years and I have been stuck in the same job ever since. The TESOL program seemed like a splendid opportunity a gateway to teach English in the foreign country where the pay package is better than what I am earning currently. I am doing this course also because of the excellent placement that TESOL promises; so it seemed worth my time and money to invest in the certificate.
I want to apply for new jobs and need a certificate to apply in Japan, because I am not a native English speaker.
I have always been a student of different languages. Having studied other languages I felt there was a need for me to have skills in the language that helped me open my eyes to the world and with which I have been accomplished all my education.
Helping other people find themselves and their true potential through the same language would be a unique experience for me and hopefully I will get to learn something new through this process.
It is for the certification and for having a better approach of English language speaking.
To enhance myself as a language teacher. As I have been teaching to the non-native speakers (Arabs) I believe course will help achieve my objectives as an English language teacher.
As I have taken up a job in Oman in the position of an English teacher I need myself to be perfect in my approach as well as to know tips to implement the methods for a better way to teach English language. I want to know the right way to approach my class so as to make a difference in my classroom.
I enjoy teaching and would like to learn “HOW TO TEACH” in a manner that keeps the students involved and interested in classes. The fact that TESOL is an internationally recognized course also helps. I teach foreign language to Indians think it would be interesting to teach English to foreigners (vice-versa!)
I want to be a teacher, as a professional. I enjoy teaching and look forward to enrich my career in this profession. I hope your institute, post-completion of the course will give the opportunity to be a part of a reputed educational institute or a corporate where I can apply the skills and knowledge I gained from TESOL program.
I have been a Secondary School English teacher for 6 years and have taught across a range of curriculum such as IGCES, A-levels, IB and the British National Curriculum. As I seek a change of career direction - perhaps move on to the field of adult education – I require a formal certification in language training. This is why I have chosen to do the TESOL course at ATI.
I am a Master’s in English literature with a background of 17 years of teaching to my profile (in the Gulf). I have taught English as a first language to the Arab students. I took my time but I succeeded being on the best teachers over a period of time. Today unfortunately with a Master’s degree and a 17 years teaching track still asked for a teacher’s training certificate to apply for jobs abroad. So I am here frankly speaking just to obtain a certificate.
I have been working in Aviation Relief and development for three years and would like to switch over to aviation education teaching. My end goal in English language teaching is to test and certify students to the ICAO level 4. I have been learning Dasi in Afghanistan for 3 years and think that I would like to be on the other side of the desk, as a teacher. I think I would enjoy the experience.
Just after Post Graduation in English I went abroad in 2002 to work as an English language Instructor. I taught there in the Kingdom of Bahrain for 4 years. After that I joined King Khalid University as a lecturer in English in 2007. In these couple of years I have developed my own teaching style as I have not had any formal training as a teacher. Though I have been applying my efforts to my level best I am not sure whether I have been successful in discharging my responsibilities as an English lecture. I believe that TESOL will fill that gap which I think I have. I have also heard that it will instrumental to keep my teaching proficiency updated. There are reasons why I am interested in doing this course.
In India, especially the cities, English is the medium of instruction. In spite of that a very small percentage of students are able to speak, read, or right English correctly; the basics are not very clear or strong . They go higher levels without a good foundation. Simple, correct English is better than high level but unsure knowledge.
Methods of teaching are very monotonous, dull and drab. Since I think my basic English is good; and I like and enjoy interacting with kids. I would like to learn more about new, different methodologies. Catch them young, and make all aspects of the language clear.
I was doing TESOL job for the past ten years and I would like to continue it for some more years. I see this as a refreshment in my career. The teaching techniques that I followed were not sufficient for present day teaching. New teachers are experimenting and implementing different ways for an effective class management. Of course, I am confident and dedicated teacher who can achieve the lesson goals, the same time I can reflect on my lesson. I found the percentage of “proficiency” in less in me compound to other teachers. I would like to fill the gap with power packed, well planed teaching method. That is why I am in TESOL and expect I can make a changeover at the end of the course, utilizing your “communicative” way of teaching. I hope this course helps me in achieving ambitions in career life.
to work and travel. I have chosen this course because it is something new for me, to expand my horizons and to allow me
I chose to take an English Teacher Training course to open the door to teaching. I chose India for the opportunity to have a cultural exchange. I have always wanted to come to India to study Indian Classical Music. I hope to learn a lot on this trip, which will be for a year.
I enjoy working with kids. I have worked with students at camps, other summer programs and have worked in an administrative position at a school. I wanted more formal training in teaching so I can teach in a school. I have always wanted to teach English abroad and I have always wanted to go to India, so this course was perfect. I love experiencing other cultures and I love teaching. So doing a TESOL course and being trained will let me pursue my passions, teaching and traveling.
For several years now, I have taken interest in teaching English to teach children in different countries. I have worked with children in orphanages, communities, and a trash dump in Nicaragua for about 8 years. This experience has equipped me with skills in teaching children both art and English, as well as instilling confidence and self-worth in each individual. I decided that I would like to learn more skills and techniques in teaching English as a foreign language on a more official level. So I elected to enroll in this TESOL course here in India. I hope to learn as much as possible to best equip myself with the skills to teach English around the world.
I chose to complete an English teacher training course in Kolkata for a couple of reasons. First, I am originally from Kolkata. I was adopted by my mother when I was 6 months, so I have always wanted to return to learn about where I am originally from. In addition, I also have experience as a middle school teacher. I believe having a TESOL certificate will make me a better teacher, in that it will show me what it is like to be a foreign language learner and will show me effective ways to integrate the many aspects of language in my teaching.
My experience as a middle school reading and writing in America has given me a love for teaching. My wife is an India native and has come back to revisit her original home and this TESOL program allows me to complement these two. I will be able to teach while my wife also teaches and reconnects with her cultural roots. I am excited to extend the training and experience I already have from teaching in the US for four years. And I am also excited to teach in a different cultural context and be able to have an impact in another way with a wider group of people.
I have been in teaching field for the past 8 years and have been teaching English as a second language to the learners of varying age groups. I have always felt that language can be in parted effectively when it is done in an interactive way, i.e; by exposing students to the language based activities. I have chosen this course as whatever methods or activities. I learn here, I would carry that to the real scenario for that the knowledge I gain by doing this program is certainly going to enrich me professionally & academically. Moreover the certification I get by doing this program is accredited through the world.
I have previously been a trainer for an aviation school, teaching safety procedures and service language. My experience teaching was interesting and helped me learn a lot as well. My interest in teaching and traveling helped me take a decision to become an English Teacher. I found out about American TESOL institute through website and reckon it to be a great opportunity to learn teaching techniques as a language teacher.
I have been working as a mental health researcher in Canada for the past 4-5 years. I have been living in India the past 15 months. During my time here I had the opportunity to meet many refugees and immigrants. For about 2 months. I ended up giving private English lessens to Tibetan refugees &Burmese marks. I realized how rewarding- and tough this job is in Canada, and internationally I will continue to work with refugees & immigrants in issues of integration 7 settlement- an area that warning English is usually important in the process.
The TESOL program helps to teach English language to like non- English speaking community. Recently I have moved to Jakarta, Indonesia where the demand for TESOL certified teachers are high. I hope thus certificate will help me in getting a job.
English is an international language. There are lots of job in this profession. One can work in India as well as abroad. To work in a good institution, one has to be equipped with teacher training qualification. Most of the institute wants to recruit the people who are TESOL qualified. As being an English teacher it would definitely help me in getting job any where in the world. Teaching English to speakers of other language involves a lot of challenges and it would be difficult for a language teacher to make his teaching effective in the classroom without English teacher training course. It is the teacher training course which equipped a teacher with methods and techniques to be applied in the classroom to make teaching effective and successful. Keeping these things in my mind, I opted to do an English training course.
My long term ambition is to set up a Non- profit Organization to provide education to the poor & needy. To begin with, want to be a teacher & the season for having chosen English language is the passion for the language, that & have sight from my childhood. Language is one of the finest riches one can be acquainted with & it goes well with the saying “you can have brilliant ideas, but if you don’t get them across, your ideas don get you nowhere”. So language is so instrumental & functional in today’s modern world.
English has become the lingua franca. Now a day a person who speaks any regional language it he moves to another place and dose it know the language of that place can easily communicate whatever he wants to by using English. It has become an essential element which can make a person grow be it work or community. I have been into soft skills training for the post 3 and half years and needed a certification for me to prosper it the training industry and English being the major post of soft skills training, I decided to go for the English teacher training course.
In Korea, English teachers and highly demand. It I have the certificate of TESOL. I will have many changes to teach English in Korea.
I have been teaching ESL to grade 7 (2 years ago) for a semester. I currently work as the admission officer at kodaikanal int ‘l school. Effective July 2011 I will be moving back to my classroom, back to ESL teaching. I have done my masters in English, but needed an ESL teaching qualification. At KIS we follow the IB program hence we have a lot of activities for our students to follow in the classroom. I am curious to pick up different techniques and ideas in terms of making my classes even more interesting and fun. Move them the qualification, I am keen about gaining know ledge from this course.
Thank you for all your efforts.
It was the time when I recently did my NLP (neuro linguistic programming) master practitioner certification, realized I needed to use my skills in teaching or counseling, I came across this course offered by many academies across the global and gathered that it was going to be my passport to take up training jobs abroad so opted for this course in particular as it gives me training as well as practical exposure to use the skills learnt in the class.

I am a teacher by profession. Teaching is my passion. I have teaching english for the past 10 years,to all the age groups, specially the teenagers. Teaching has been a learning experience to me all through. I have varied experience in teaching with different nationalities. Presently I am in Oman where teacher training courses like TESOL, TEFL, CELTA, etc are preferred. Equally I believe in these courses because they help us to smoothen our rough edges of our profession. I would like to be the best in my profession which can only be fulfilled by doing this course. Above all it has got an international recognition. And I will have a chance to interact with different races and nationalities. It is just like having a world tour under a single roof. I am hopeful to acquire new teaching skills by undergoing this training course. I am sure I will be just like a ‘native’ or ‘near native’ in english. It is just like a ‘feather in my cap’.
English is an international language which is accepted and aroused interest almost everywhere around the globe. I always had an immense passion towards different languages, specially English. As I come from a village, I did not get much opportunities to develop my language skills upto my post graduation. But the flame was inside me and I started speaking and listening english after my PG. English is is a very flexible language and I understood that if we put some extra effort we could master it. I realised that the best way to keep in touch with this language is to practice it regularly and for that this best way is teaching. When I preferred teaching, I gave importance to an internationally accepted course so that I can pursue my likes as well as my dream job.
I have always loved to read and write. In my past teaching experiences, I found it very satisfying to share that love with my students, and help them communicate more clearly in English, as well as getting to know them. I also love to travel, so I was eager to improve my teaching skills in Kochi. My experiences living immersed in a foreign language can help me be more understanding of my students’ experience learning English. I find that I learn a lot from my students as well. I think this course will help to formalise and solidify my teaching skills and background knowledge. I am always happy to learn more. Exposure to native language teachers is something that I feel is vital to learning any language. When I studied Spanish in school, my teachers had also learned Spanish as a second language. That combined with the fact that I only used the language for one hour each day, made success hard for me. However, when I studied Japanese at a Japanese university, my teachers were more natural with the language and it was being used all around me. Because of that I was more far more successful in learning Japanese. While I cannot provide a full-immersion environment on my own. I can provide my students with a life long English skills.
The life style these days is filled with the cycle of learn and earn. There is something like ‘job-satisfaction’ i.e is mostly not legible in the professional life as the times moves on. Hence to have a remarkable professional life that includes motivation, satisfaction (professional and personal) and innovation I have chosen training/teaching. English is an ever-green language as it is accepted universally. These day it has a predominant role due to globalization. There are many knowledgeable people fighting for survival as they are unable to express their knowledge in a language called English. This is where ‘English teaching’ plays a prominent role. I have 4+ years of experience in successfully training the participants to communicate in English. Now I have realized the necessity to induce the language in the childhood (tender age). Hence to move in this direction my educational qualification is not supporting me. Therefore I have opted for a certification in English Teacher training with a hope that it will support my thoughtful action.
I have chosen to be an English teacher because basically I am a teacher. As a teacher I would be like to be well versed in the subject and more clear to the students in dealing with the main reason to learn the language to interact or to be more sophisticated in facing the public. No matter how many languages you know English is a language is known to everyone and easily you are able to communicate. In any part of the world the only language can be used is English. So I feel important or essential in learning the language and it will help one more in my future career. As a teacher I do not want to fumble for words and stop in between in my lesson. I hope this would help me more better in future.
I am a graduate in Philosophy from the university of Adomson, Manila, Philippines. After my graduation I came back to India. Then only I realized the most disappointing fact that the university I graduated from was not recognized by any of the Indian universities. Due to this I could not continue my studies. If I had to continue I had to again go for a degree course. As I come from a lower middle class family, I did not have enough money in my pocket to go for a degree course again. Then I thought of doing some job. At that time I really did not have the thought of taking up teaching as a profession. I was prepared to do any job as long as it gave me enough money. At that time one of my old friends was working as a teacher in Andhra. He adviced me to go to Andhra and become a teacher. There was no qualification was compulsory to become a teacher as long as we have the abiulity to teach. After working there for some years I felt the need to go abroad. With this TESOL certificate I think there is a better chance of getting job abroad.
Traveling has been my passion and after having explored India considerably, I thought of starting my journeys around the world. After I researched my options, I realized that I could be an English Teacher and that motivated me to look for a good English teacher training course and I found TESOL/TEFL to facilitate my dream. I also liked the thought of being an English Teacher because I enjoy English language and thought that it would be an interesting challenge to teach people who do not know the English language. This profession would help to bring out my creative side and also bring new friendship.
There are many reasons why I have chosen to do an English teacher training course. I would love to travel and visit other countries. I feel that I have a lot to give. I am hoping the course can help me to have the tools to be successful on many different levels, confidence in front of students, knowledge to impart and employability.
I have chosen to do an English Teacher training course because; I love teaching and training people of different walks of life and also love traveling around the world. TESOL will fulfill my dream of teaching and traveling around the world which is my passion.
TESOL, I have chosen because it gives me freedom to work and travel and to be independent

My dream is to visit Africa in teach the kids who are not afford to go to school. After 10 years of teaching I had an opportunity do this training course. Prayed about it and decided. I heard and believe that most kids and parents crave to learn English. My husband is making money to save for us, So that we can work as volunteer. If god wiling I will be teaching in Africa the next academic years!
I have chosen to do the American TESOL course to work as an English language teacher. I love working children and as a person I am very shy so I feel this course will help me open as a person and help me communicate with people also. I would also love to travel and learn other cultures. But above all its because I want to pursue my career as a teacher and learn new things.
I have taught Spanish and would like to change to teaching English. So as to travel and work abroad, I love language and am passionate about learning about other cultures. I chose this course to combine my passions and to get a taste for teaching English.
The opportunity to travel tops the list of reasons why I chose to do this course. I currently train for a contact centre (BPO) and I absolutely love what I do. Doing this course is going to make me attempt an aspect of the most basic form of any training teaching. It also opens a lot of avenues for me, professionally, and I hope with my experience of training backing me up, I go places.
I have been working as a teacher for four years, and discovered that I have the ability to create a good connection with young students. I chose English Teacher training as I am comfortable with the language and this particular training will me help to develop my language skills. I want to be a better English teacher and be more judicious in my ways of teaching.
As I am into teaching students, this English teacher training course will help me to imbibe the necessary skills requires to teach students of all levels. This 3 weeks training program will be an intense one with theory blended proportionately with practical, which will be a good learning experience for me. The teaching and methodologies used will be appropriate and will give me and hands on knowledge for dealing with young learners too also because this is an international course participate.
I have chosen this course to teach better English to my students. I have done graduation and masters in English but I feel it is not enough to teach school students TESOL/TEFL is a course where I may learn more of language and may deliver it to my students who don’t know English at all. If I know correct and better English as a teacher them I may teach my students properly and I may also feel satisfied. I can shape my students well. Teaching correct language in my goal!
Do an English teacher Training for me it’s a challenge, because I never been a teacher but I wonder to be, so I decided to try it on. It could like an adventure, but I really like to share what I know and for that I will take this chance to grow myself that, yes I can and because I like to travel and to do new things to be an English teacher training will help me and I will enjoy it, and because I am loving on riddle East. It will be great opportunity for me become a English teacher.
First of all I would like to do this course as I do not have any teacher training. It is a hindrance for me to get some offers. I was working in OMAN from 2001-2008 for about eight years in schools under the Ministry of Education After I left that job as I was searching for a better opportunity I have come across the TESOL/TEFL course. So I have decided to this course for two reasons one is that I do not have any training certificate and the second one is to get a better opportunity. I would like to know the new ways of teaching. Although teaching methodology used in OMAN is more different from the one which is used in India. I was accustomed to it I mean L.S.R.W. This course will help me to get a better opportunity as well as make me acquainted with the most advanced technology used to teach the second language learners. As it is American I hope I can communicate well with the students more than as I am used to. I hope everything goes well and I will get the certificate.
I have chosen to do an English teacher training course because I hope to gain experience and knowledge within teaching English as a second language. My long term goals are that I will be able to gain meaningful employment as a TEFL teacher. I also have chosen to do this course in the hopes of staying in India and working as a teacher. The TESOL program has a good reputation around the world known for a great way to work and learn the skills of teaching abroad.
I have chosen an English teacher training course for the reason that it may help me in teaching English in a more correct and professional way. It helps to create an environment of overseas everyone speaks a common language. Moreover, these language training courses help to grow professionally!
I have decided to do TESOL because I want to look for better opportunities. Moreover, the Middle East where I work at present, the employers and institutes are demanding CELTA or TESOL other than B.ED to teach students in college level. Also its been nearly 20 years since I received my last training in teaching and so that is an urgent need to brush up the latest techniques in the field.
I would like to start teaching English as it comes very naturally to me. Through my years of experience in customer service I have come across many people who were unable to speak in an effective manner and that has been motivating for me to take up the TESOL program.
Being a teacher in a foreign land means you have to shape your techniques to the learner’s level. The language learning is becoming more technical and creative. I realize that this course might give me an extra edge to my teaching skills. Apart from that long years of teaching have brought in a sense of stuck up feeling I hope that this course might be more of an eye-opener and will also guide me to better opportunities. This course will surely help me upgrade my teaching skills and brush up the already learnt lessons. Though B.ED helps in learning how to teach, it does not actually provide you with the modern techniques in new age classrooms.
English language is creeping into every sphere of human lives. It’s a language with no border as it transcends the barriers of culture and unites people everywhere. In the present scenario English is the language of prestige and has acquired a status symbol for its speakers. Therefore I have chosen to do an English teacher training course to empower myself and also to climb the social hierarchy. I just love everything connected with English.

I have chosen to do an English teacher training course because I enjoy travelling and working in foreign countries by doing so, I believe you can gain a deep understanding of other culture. I chose to teach English especially because I feel I will enjoy doing so and will be successful at it. However although I am a native English speaker, my teaching experience I limited. As a result I thought it a good idea to take a course and learn how to do so effectively. I hope the course will equip me with the specific skills to improve my knowledge & the English language effectively to develop other people’s language skills.
I had decided a years back to do the TESOL English teacher training course because of the reputation of the American TESOL Institute in imparting one of the most professional language training techniques for teachers who wish to teach English to non-native English speakers. I had already been training students and professionals for IELTS (international English language training system) under the British Council, in Assam for the past 5 years I am thereafter, proud of the fact that my students are doing extremely well in colleges and Universities abroad and in the Organizations they have found employment in.
But, I wanted to get the American feel of teaching students with the very unique and innovative English training tools of ATI. So I find myself in Kochi now to be a part of the 3 weeks. TESOL training program to teach English in India and abroad!
There are different reasons for choosing this course for different people or we can say that it varies from person to person. But I have chosen for my better carrier and to get better opportunity in teaching. Actually I want to teach in a college. That is why I have opted this course beside this I want to improve my teaching skills.
I choose this course to improve myself in my methods of teaching. In our everyday life, we see children are more competitive and they need new method from their teachers which will be really interesting. Children always depend on their teachers. So as a teacher it’s my responsibility to give them what they want in a very good and impressed method.
I have been speaking, writing & reading English for most part of my life. Grammatically I sound fine & do write well. But teaching English or even learning English has always fascinated me. As a part of the retreat program that I have embarked for the last five years, this course in a new place should enhance my career prospect & hopefully inculcate an interest not only for English but teaching as well.
English language is getting widely spoken these days and becomes demanding for life. Recently I turned my career into teaching so I need TESOL certificated to support me to become more qualified in order to have more opportunities in finding the better job as well as the better life.
I chose to do an English Teacher training course for the following reasons:
• To accelerate my career prospects
• To learn different methods of facilitating learning.
• To be able to learn from others & what their experience add to my learning.
• To understand the nuances of adult & young learners teaching & how they would differ in various situations.
At the end of it all, I hope that I am able to achieve my personal learning objectives by optionally applying my skill sets.
I need to learn a living here in India, though I am a native English speaker, I need to learn how to teach.
I have a great passion in teaching and the happiest thing I wish to do in my life is to teach till I breathe. Although I have been teaching English, I still want to upgrade to the latest level and be a good teacher. I have taken an English Teacher training course to travel an English Teacher Training course to travel around the world, get more explore and to inspire a lot of people around the world.
Recently I have got a new firm incorporated which will be operating for language based businesses. I am going to teach English to Korean students in Kolkata. Therefore, if I have a certificate like TESOL will be helpful for the business.
Being a teacher I believe a teacher must be well trained before he stands before the students. Only a good teacher training course can make one a good teacher who can reach in the level of students all over the world.

It is essential to carry a teacher training certificate. Moreover, I find English to be an interesting language and I would enjoy teaching the language to kids.
I have chosen English teacher Training course in order to enhance my teaching skills. I learned from different people and source that it gives wider opportunity to explore the hidden techniques in modern teaching. TESOL is the most demanded certification by the recruiter of other nations. It also would help me to establish my own institute in Kerala with a newer technology.

Furthermore, this course would enable me teaching English as a language across the world. I would welcome to accept feedback through the course learning and open to give constructive feedback to my peer too. This course would surely help me learnt more with classroom activity in the next teaching practice. I strongly believe that this reputed institute would qualify me with all learning teaching skills.
It started when I was child I like reading poetry, that to English, this is how I got connected to the language. At same time, I would like to create something of my own in future. I just love this language for its mannerism. I saw in today’s world English language is of great importance and matter of fact that, people judge you, there are many guys in India & abroad who cannot speak good English, I would like to make my skills first, I would like to be a tool to teach these guys, where ever they may be. I am trying my best to do so hopeful to be successful in future. I feel I want to learn & teach in a creative way I want that my session should be interesting and people should have fun & same time, they can study.
I currently teach Spanish and I would like to implement a better teaching methodology. Which I except to learn from the TESOL program! A TESOL qualification will also provide opportunities to travel and experience different culture while teaching English.
In today’s global world everyday is a new challenge and an adventure. As I stay in gulf the opportunity for teachers is vast and I hope my training course will serve my purpose. I have chosen this course to get better exposure and also I like taking challenges. It will give me an opportunity to explore get into more people from other cultures and languages. In today’s global scenario teaching itself is a learning process.
I have chosen to do an English teacher training course because I intend to settle abroad. I am a teacher by profession. Teaching profession can be fulfilling if one enjoys his/her job which is possible if one has command on his/her/ teaching skill. I have opted for English teacher training course because there is need for English language teachers. I would like to be a very good English teacher who is very communicative.
Being a teacher in the small school where I have been teaching from the last 5 years, I have come to know that it’s been a good experience of teaching as well as learning. Being a teacher we ourself come to learn many things. But when I came to know about the TESOL,I thought this would be best for me to have a lot of potent and introducting skills for myself as well as teaching others. TESOL is again a better course for me because it can enhance my skills and my confidence level to work as a good teacher. I feel it can help me out finding a better place of teaching in abroad. With this course. I can even explore to lots of other countries but not sure of my part whether I shall be able to come out with all my teaching skills that I had or I am learning in TESOL. I hope so coming here and doing this course will open up my mind as well as clear all my doubts of teaching in the right manner, with this I think it would help me mainly on my teaching skills as well as in English.
The training imparted by TESOL seems to be potent & interesting. I pursued this course mainly to improve my teaching skills particularly in this subject. I feel that this enhancement & skill will continue to rule for ever. I had identified some lacunae in my skills and I think this will go a long way in improving them with ease & confidence. This skill will provide me an opportunity to explore & travel outside the Indian Territory to teach, share improve my strengths. I had my doubts whether this short span will fulfill my objective but I am quite confident that your tested and pragmatic teaching methods will dispel all my fears & doubts. I hope that this course teaching methods will open up new knowledge & method in teaching English to non speakers much more professionally. In short I have taken this course mainly to improve my strengths in English speaking & teaching practices & look into the same in different perspective where it can be put into use beyond teaching.
Being a tertiary level instructor of English language & literature, I am assigned different English language teaching courses by the department. So I needed to have certification in this area. That is the reason to undergo the TESOL course! Another reason to for my choice to be a participant in the TESOL course in my realization that my academic qualification at graduate and post-graduate level are not enough to cater to the needs of the ESL/ EFL learners across the world. For example while in Ethiopia,I experienced different skill development assignments being given to the instructors. Developing language skills of the learners is the demand of the day! So I enrolled for this certificated course to enhance my skills and know - how of English skill development methodology. Lastly I believe that as a teacher or an instructor one needs to professionally upgrade one’s skills to suit the job demands, whenever possible.
After 8 years of working as a teacher of music technology and electronic music, I have decided that I wish to use my love and I hope skills of teaching in another subject, this bring TEFL. I believe teaching English to be more beneficial to societies and communities and in turn greatly satisfying to myself. I hope to continue living and working abroad for many years to come. I hope working as an English teacher can help me to facilitate this.
I chose to do an English teacher training course because I believe that it will facilitate me to facilitate students I might teach in future and also to upgrade my teaching skills that will prepare me to deal with class on real time basis. This course will also help me evaluate the fields I need to concentrate upon and where I lag behind.
From childhood days I always wanted to be a teacher. After finishing my Master’s degree in English literature I got a job in a secondary school. Now I want to be part of an international school where I will be able to meet students from all over the world. For that I need to be professionally trained. I came to know about this teacher training course from internet, I think this course will help me to enhance my teaching capacity which will be accepted globally. I just wanted to enhance my skill as an English teacher. That is why I am here for this course.
I have been teaching students (children and adults) and I have observed that English plays a vital role in their personality. Admission in school become so much easier for those who can speak well. Speaking the language well, adds enormously to their self esteem and confidence. The power of the rhetoric cannot be undermined. We want to include this subject in our Montessori teacher training course as a part of the curriculum.
I am an English teacher. I would like to be an English teacher forever. I am sure this English teacher training course will help me to improve myself. I would like to teach communicative English. I am also faced a lot of problem while studying English. I think proper guidelines only can solve all these problems. I hope this course will guide me to learn more.
As an English teacher in Korea, I sometimes had problems with engaging the students. I think one of the most important aspects of teaching English is to get the students interested in it through the use of games, cultural activities and exposure pop culture. In this class I hope to learn effective lesson planning as well as classroom management in order to get the students truly interested in learning. Learning additional languages can open many doors and everyone have the opportunity to do so.
Teaching English is a noble job to me it is my profession too. As English is considered as an international language, the teachers should be well trained in this matter. Teaching is an inborn talent. But it may not be useful for all the learners those who are in front of the teacher if she/he is not trained well. If the teacher knows the techniques of the students he/she can make wonders in the class. I really wanted to be a real sincere and talented teacher for that I perfect to get proper training. That’s I have chosen an English teacher training course.
I would like to say that currently I am working as a teacher in Maldives. So if I complete TESOL successfully I can try for the Middle East countries for a better placement. Recently one of my friend left for OMAN, he is working as a lecturer over there. His remuneration is more than one lakh per month but in Maldives I am getting around 20 thousand rupees as salary. Moreover I want to learn more about the use of English without any mistakes in reading, writing listening and speaking. Being an English teacher I do commit mistakes sometimes so in order to get rid of these errors I hope this course may bring some changes in my career. I believe that a teacher must be perfect before he/she enters in to a classroom.
I am working in OMAN as an English teacher for last seven years. I have been working in schools now I wanted to work in the university or the technology colleges. In spite of being M.A, B.ED in English It’s become compulsory to have a certificate of TESOL or CELTA for better prospectus, thus this need forced me to choose to do an English teacher training course.
I have chose to do an ETT course because I am interested in both teaching and traveling, I love to travel and would love to be able to immerse myself in a culture for an extended period of time, in order to do this and to give back to the culture that I am visiting,I want to teach English. However, although I am a native speaker of English, I do not know how to teach it, so that is why I chose to do an ETT course.
Through my efforts to achieve a good teaching position other than the place where I had been, I recognize that this course can fetch me a good opportunity. Moreover I have been teaching IELTS and many other courses for 12 years. I need to improve my skill in teaching and would like to be the best to industry and expect from this future career is going to be the same for myself and my family I believe TESOL can put a milestone towards my glorious life.
Basically I love English. It’s very easy to speak and learn and also we can make others to speak English. I love this teaching profession where I can meet all children who have come from different culture and will be having different mother tongues. By teaching them English they can go anywhere around the world and can earn their livelihood. Now, English has become an international language, if we learn this language we can become independent and communicate with anyone around the world. If I complete this course successfully I will become an eminent teacher to fulfill the desires of my students who wants to learn English.

Hi Vinod,
Many Indian teachers are recruited on a regular basis in Middle Eastern Countries. TEFL certified candidates are always given a preference by recruiters.
I have been a kindergarten teacher for past 6 years and am looking at primary school teaching as an option. Apart from that having been in Hongkong, I have informally taught kindergartners to speak English and would now like to do so formally. ( i. e , with proper certification )
I am an English teacher in Korea, but when looking for other teaching jobs (outside of Korea) there is a demand for a TESOL certificate. With a certificate I will hopefully be able to teach in many other countries in the future. In addition, I think it will help me be a better teacher in my current position
I (CHARES. D. CASEY) have always loved teaching children and adults how to speak English. Even though I have not done my B.A or B. ED in English, I have always helped my collegues and the children that I have taught with their English. This is what led me to take up this English teacher training course.
I have chosen to do an English Teacher training course because I would like to learn the methodology which should be used for training in classrooms in order to enhance my students learning process. I believe that by doing this course not only do I learn the tecnique but also use it effectively and make learning the language an easier process.
Destiny led me to it would sound clichéd but that’s exactly how it happened in my case. I was very fond of playing a little game in my childhood in which I would pretend to be a teacher and deliver lessons to imaginary students in my bedroom. I had never imagined & would do this ever for real. All throughout school I really liked this subject and the passion for it led me to this course. I hope to make something out of it. Travelling is another reason I got in to it. I have not travelled much till date am keen about it.
Basically I am teacher, in Manipur teachers are underpaid and I want to do something new as a teacher with the help of TESOL program which I learnt really doing well through net. Frankly, I like the difference otherwise not possible with the help of TESOL.
This is Raghu,an MBA and have been into teaching for various competitive exam (like GRE, CAT. State MBA/MCA Placement training) renown institutes. TESOL program is an interesting one, which gives to a platform to explore into diversified cultures across the gate and will expecting to get strong International teaching experience. Looking forward to learn teaching techniques to teach international language learns.
I was inspired by my English teachers in school. Their command over the language, their commitment in the class and their dedication towards teaching their subject sowed the seed of my inclination towards the language. I would ape their mannerisms; I imbibed readily habits from them hence developed a passion in learning English.
I took up teaching as a profession by chance and I was placed in an average local school. I realized the need to focus of on teaching English as the children were expected to score well in the language without knowing there fundamentals. Therefore I took more interest in teaching subject.
