Teaching Practices

Due to popular demand, the International Teacher Training Organization (ITTO) has extended its services to include the opportunity for those taking our Online TEFL TESOL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) training course to conclude the course with actual, live teaching practices at our partner school. One long weekend intensive TEFL training program in Guadalajara, Mexico.
New at ITTO!!!: We have great news for upcoming ITTO trainees following on to a Teaching Practice Certificate. ITTO is now offering Specialty certificates in specific skill areas for specialization in your TEFL TESOL Course. These Specialty Certificates can be done on your own with tutor support during the course of your teaching practices. Each will give you an edge for getting a better-paying job in a broader variety of TEFL TESOL teaching contexts. You may earn one or all twelve depending on your dedication and desire. Remember, many schools are charging $150 to $300 USD for each of these extra certificates, but at ITTO, our graduates may earn these awards at no cost. A Specialist Certificate will take an average of 5 hours and combines self-study with face to face feedback from your personal tutor. See a description of the TEFL Specialty certificates here!


Invaluable Teaching Experience and Helpful Feedback

Many people opt to take our online training course as opposed to our in-person course due to time and other constraints. We have worked hard to make our online TEFL TESOL course effective and in-depth, emulating our in-person, immersion course to every extent possible. However, one area where the online course simply can not replace the in-person training course is in the teaching practices, where trainees teach to actual EFL students in front of our seasoned trainers who provide feedback and grade the trainees every step of the way. Now, the option to come to our school to take part in this vital step of your learning process is available to all of our online TEFL TESOL training course students.

More Practice Hours With Real EFL Students

If you are currently enrolled in or thinking about enrolling in our online TEFL training course, we highly recommend that you take part in these actual teaching practices. Live teaching practice in a real classroom environment is one of the final and most important steps to becoming an effective, successful TEFL TESOL instructor. We believe it is so essential that our teaching practices are 10 hours minimum, greatly surpassing the international standard, which recommends 6 hours. Also, we can not emphasize more how important it is to have these teaching practices in as realistic an environment as possible. Teaching practice for some providers means teaching your peers or some providers account team teaching as formal teaching practices. We do not. You will teach real students individually and be observed and critiqued for ten full classes by your personal tutor. We do not promote team teaching, as it is not a realistic EFL setting. Other providers will offer 6 hours of observed teaching practice per trainee group and not per individual trainee. You are individually observed by several professional trainers.

Excellent Training in a Beautiful Setting – Guadalajara, Mexico

Our teaching practices run over one long weekend (Thursday through Tuesday with an off day on Sunday) each month in our school in the beautiful and historic downtown area of Guadalajara – Mexico's second largest city, located 300 km from the Pacific coast in Central Western Mexico. Guadalajara is known for its enchanting beauty, historic architecture, and very affordable, excellent amenities, and accommodations. While attending our school, you will not only receive top notch training, you will also receive it in this beautiful city, which has a fantastic flavor of local culture as well as excellent restaurants and an exciting nightlife. Guadalajara´s neighboring towns of Cocula and Tequila are the birthplace of Mariachi music and our national drink.

While you enjoy beautiful Guadalajara, take a one week formal intensive Spanish course valued at $248 absolutely FREE. This may take place either before or after your long weekend teaching practices.
If you are interested in teaching in a Spanish speaking country after graduation or are interested in learning the Spanish language, we would like to bring to your attention an exclusive limited offer from ITTO which will ease you into the environment.

To help make you feel confident in your new surroundings before the start of your Teaching practices, we will provide you with 25 hours of specialized Spanish instruction absolutely free at one of the finest Spanish language schools. (The only charge is a small fee for a book to take the course, approximately $27 USD).

The school is fully equipped with extra resources and is located right across the street from our training center. These lessons are valued at $248 USD. Here is a link to find out more about our partner school: www.spanish-school.com.mx.
By the way, if it is more convenient to you, feel free to take advantage of this added value either before or after your long weekend teaching practices.
