 Hello, my name is Tori. I am an American and I'm currently living in Japan teaching English. I took the ITTT course, the 120 hour TEFL certification online and really enjoyed it. It was really helpful for me to have a breakdown of the English language and the grammar points and thinking about English in a way that I didn't necessarily think of it before having been a native English speaker. Teaching here in Japan has been a really good experience for me because it has challenged me to think more about how English is used and all the rules and how to use simple language to communicate a point, how to break things down for students. I think the TEFL course that I took with ITTT was really helpful in being able to do that. So I really appreciated being able to do that while I was here so that I could actually use the things that I was learning in the classroom. I had plenty of notes and things to refer back to when I needed help on a grammar point or to figure out rules and when we use what and why we use what. That was what was most helpful for me about that and I've been really enjoying my time here in Japan and hope that I can continue to find ways to use teaching English as a foreign language as I continue on my career path. Thanks.
