One of the requirements of the Trinity Cert TESOL, the TEFL
course we run at ISIS Tefl London, is that you undertake 6 hours observed
teaching. For the vast majority of teacher trainees, this is their first
experience at the front of the classroom.
On the ISIS Tefl course, we guide our trainees through their
lesson planning in advance… but preparing lessons, and actually delivering them
to students are two different things! It's natural to feel nervous but I always
say the same things: You're teaching a bit of English, giving students a bit of
practice, and encouraging a bit of speaking, and you're standing in front of
the friendlist group of people you could hope to meet.
So… who are these people? Who will you teach on the Cert
TESOL course at ISIS Tefl London?

Well, some of the students our TEFL trainees teach are
studying at the school, but many are from outside. From different countries all
over the world, they now find themselves living in London! They are working
people, and if they don't already have a job, they're looking for one. What do
they all have in common? They need English! And we give them lessons for free!!
You can guess how fond we are, as a TEFL Training
department, of our students. They help us to train teachers, and we help them
to gain some skills they'll need to live and work in England.
So a big THANK YOU to all who turn up faithfully every
afternoon at 2:30pm to support us and the TEFL trainees.
