New technologies offer a world of help?so how do we get at them? Kristine Montamat - ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ ITTT
English teachers are encouraged to use diverse materials and approaches to reach students across the range of learning styles. Information and communication technologies ' computers and the internet ' provide access to an array of engaging and enriching materials, which any teacher might long for.

Tefl reviews - Pronunciation And Phonology/place Of Articulation Part 2 - ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ ITTT
Alveolar sounds get their name from the fact that the alveolar ridge is being used. Again, that ridge is just behind the front top row of teeth. Here the tongue is on or very very near the alveolar ridge. It's typically the tip of the tongue or what's just behind the tip of the tongue, called the blade of the tongue.

TEFL, TESOL or CELTA - which is better? - ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ ITTT TEFL & TESOL
If you have done some research and made the decision to teach English abroad or online, you will probably have been confronted with a mound of perplexing letters: TEFL, tesol, and CELTA – what do they all mean, and which is better?

What is the difference between TEFL, TESOL and CELTA? - ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ ITTT TEFL & TESOL
The world of English language teaching is well known for its love of acronyms and unfortunately this can lead to a large amount of confusion amongst potential teachers, as well as those with plenty of experience in the field.

So what is the difference between these terms?
Short for Teaching English as a Foreign Language, TEFL is probably the most common acronym you will come across when conducting research for teaching English abroad.

TEFL Certification Hanoi - ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ TEFL Vietnam - Inclass Courses
There’s only a handful of cities in the world that truly deserve ‘must visit’ status and Hanoi is certainly one of them.
