Hi Alix, good to hear from you hope all is well, and I agree, where do these people come from and the upset they have caused to innocent people is incedible.  anyhow keep well and take care  Tina

I don't think she exists, I think she's a pretty photo and an idiot message... some people must think we're a right bunch of losers!  there's some guy trying to advertise an website where you're somehow guaranteed to become a millionaire at the moment too... like yeah right mate... here's all my personal details, have fun with my ID why don't you? lol

with reference to this new scammer "Nancy"  what a moron, this happened last year and these people even got our private email accounts and implored us for money etc etc.  Anyhow we had thought it had all quietened down but obviously not, my question is how can a person who is not accepted by i to i with a course application get access to an acount and the chalkboard, its like bl   dy  face book.  Anyway keep away from them, keep studying !!!! and like this wee genuine Irish Blonde Colleen keep going with the course dont let your mind drift away !!!!!!!!!

Have a good weekend and a vino or two if possible.

Hey Tina

Good to hear from you, I'm moving to Cologne on Thursday. Very excited although apprehensive, as it's a massive move. I won't have the internet for a few weeks, so as soon as it's back up I'll let you know. How are things with you? What you been up to?

Take care

Jo

Hiya, hope the course is going well! It's been hard finding time, so far only managed to get the first module done, but hopefully will get a little further through today. It's starting to dawn on me just how much there is to learn, not only the content of the course, but how to actually be a teacher! It is fascinating though, so quite enjoying everything I've learnt so far, hope it stays that way!

Hi! Best of luck with the course. It gets a bit tough at some points, but just stick with it! If you fail a checkpoint (which I did more than once) the tutor gives really helpful feedback and you get two more goes, so don't worry about them, just get stuck in!

Good morning everybody,  Just a wee thanks to all who accepted me as a friend, I feel now that I have started on this new daunting but hopefully new path, having the support and friendship of you guys will help. I was actually typing in my sleep last night !!!!!! perhaps not a good sign, but having passed my first two modules and about to prepare to do checkpoint 1 (and dreading it !) after one half day, I feel I am on my way.  Just one piece of advice to those starting like me, I suggest you do a wee handwritten point system as you go along the modules and a wee summation which I think will help when it comes to the checkpoints, because you have something to refer to, extra work I know but I think worthwhile.  Anyhow cuppa time and chat soon  Tina

i just got my course downloaded this morning, and so excited, though will probably be square eyed soon !!!!! Tina  Monabreen, jump in and go for it xx Tina

im just thinking to start this course and very excited. 

Thanks! Thats really nice to hear!

After several years in a job that brings me no joy, its a relief to find my way to a whole new world, which really couldn't be further removed from my average day currently!

I'm really looking forward to the class time, it'l be great to meet some people all in the same boat and share different ideas and calming any fears!

There seems to be a real good community of TEFL teachers out there, so I think we're in good company!

I'm sure we'll do fine!
