"I plan to teach in different countries in Asia. I believe it is the best way to
get to know the country, its people and culture. I am hoping the course will
provide me with some useful tips and hints on doing that and give me ideas on
how to structure, plan and conduct classes for students of different age groups
and level of English.
Great country, thoroughly involved and hope it will open up new windows of
opportunities for me." Alena Huberova
"I chose to take up this project as I wanted some training in Teaching. I
already have a teacher’s degree from India but was not able to take up a formal
training. Moreover, I will be staying in Thailand for three years. So taking up
this course might help me in getting a teaching job in Thailand.
It was a great experience, especially going to the classrooms and teaching. It
gave us all the experience of real teaching and the issues connected to
teaching. The feedbacks form peers and the lessons helped us a lot to improve
our own style." Shalini Menon
"I enjoy traveling and gaining new experiences. I have many teachers in my
family who love the profession. My uncle taught in Japan and had a wonderful
experience. I currency have a friend teaching near Seoul who encouraged me to
teach in Korea. I have always wanted to teach young children." Lacy Calais
"I decided to do this project because I wanted to not only travel but do
something for someone besides myself. I just graduated so I decided now was the
best time to do this. I am excited to learn to teach. English is such a useful
language, and I’m excited to share it!" Andie Vaughn
"I chose ATI because I wanted to take a 3 weeks TESOL course in another country,
preferably in India and in Kolkata. I research ATI on the internet and only
found positive comments about it. It was also more affordable than some other
courses.
I enjoyed my experience in Kolkata and with ATI. The course was very relevant
and useful. The trainers were good and were available questions" Brain Meehan,
