The Start of a TEFL Online Course Learning Journey

Saw this blog feature on i-to-i Chalkboard and I thought maybe I can use it to record my learning journey on the i-to-i online TEFL course for subsequent reflection. China blocks almost every blog sites, including my Blogspot :(

 

I had started on the 120 hours online TEFL learning journey on 30 Sep 2011. Successfully completed Module 1 on 1 Oct 2011 and Module 2 on 2 Oct 2011. Everyone is having a great time this period with their long awaited China's National Day holidays... yet I am sloughting out here to complete my TEFL course. Maybe I was too eagar to complete the course... I had completed Module 13 on 3 Oct 2011. Hee hee... Back to reality!

 

All seems pretty smooth till I was doing Check Point 1 (CP1). What a rude shock I had! After completing the quizes for Module 1 and 2, I did anticipate that CP1 can be this challenging. I started CP1 on 4 Oct 2011 and took the next 4 days to clear this CP. Gosh! And I was planning to complete the course in a month. Quite a number of questions in CP1 was forcing me to think out of the box (well, this box refers to the course content to put things in context). I think I should re-arrange my schedule and also think of a new learning strategy to accelerate my learning.

 

Started the journey on Module 3 and Module 4. I am now facing my greatest fear... my weakness in English Grammar. Will consolidate my learnings and attempt the quizes of these two modules over the next 2 days. Till then, time for a short nap before my morning meetings.

 

Cheers!

The summaries are so important! I just finished Check Point 1 and passed on the first try. Also taking notes burned everything into memory it seems. Now time for the next adventure!


 

Hi weiff, thanks for sharing your advertisement. If there a more appropriate forum where you can post them too? Cheers! :-)

Hi Kristen, thanks for sharing! I saw similar comments and suggestions by other members too. I think I will put a halt to the main course first and start with the Grammar Awareness Course. Thanks! :-)

Hi! I struggled through Checkpoint Two but Checkpoint 3 is hard!!!!!! So I am taking a breather from it and working on the Grammar Awareness portion of the Course. It has been really helpful. It really explains things well. You could try that and see if it helps you. It has been good for me.
