this course reminded me of the importance in encourage the students in learning english in an interactive and motivated way letting them take control in their learning as well as the teacher in order to create the best astmosphere for the students!

I'm so happy to have laid my eyes on this course. The level and depth are outstanding. The instructors are Superb! What a passion and love for the subject expressed! Can't wait to complete the specialization. Thank you Coursera for a great course!

It was much better than i thought and much harder than i thought.I will take these foundational principles with me where ever i go and hope to practice them soon.Thank you very much for the Great vidieos and lessons.Lokking forward to more classes

I had soo much fun doing this course. The lesson videos are all interactive in such a way that it feels that you are presently in a classroom together with your classmates wherever they are in the world. Can't wait to try the your other course! :)

It has been a privilege to take this course and learn at the hands of Mr Dixon , thank you for your efforts and I hope to take another course under your presentation , I enjoyed your videos and learned a lot about teaching with another perspective

Great Course about English Teaching, even for those seeking for a career change. It focuses on covering all the possible aspects of a good teacher, and the content is excellently structured. Highly recommended for everyone passionate for teaching!

It was a wonderful experience learning with Coursera. It is my first time doing an online course and I enjoyed it very much. The content, instructors, methodology and overall setup is amazing. Looking forward to joining new course soon. Thank you!

I am very grateful for creating this course. It helped me to broaden my understanding of teaching process, to find out new techniques and methods and to get inspiration and motivation. I can't wait getting my students "out of the classroom door":)

This course has taught me a lot. The teachers used many teaching techniques that would be highly beneficial for ESL students. Both the tasks and the practice tests, which test our ability to remember the material from each class, are interesting.

I had taken several courses on the basic principles of English language teaching. Foundatioinal Principles made clear a lot of concepts I had only partly understood in the past. I can recommend this course to both novice and experienced teachers.

I highly recommend this amazing course which is part of a four part series for Tesol certificate. It is full of great information and I learnt so much. All the videos and information is so professional and the tutors fantastic. Thank you so much.

I just want to say thank u so much for this kind of hope that u given to us especially for the People who cannot afford❤️🙏 Thank you for Coursera and also thank you for the instructor of this course as well as the Arizona State University.❤️🙏

This course was amazing! I learned a lot. Dr. Shane Dixon's lectures were amazing. His explanations through metaphors and real-life examples were on point. I highly recommend this course to any teacher who wants to improve their teaching skills.

While a bit easy (I mean it's an intro and material is peer-reviewed, not graded by professors), it is very informative and captivating. A lot of fun to interact with others and be introduced in an easy way to quite serious and complex material.

I loved all the lessons and quizzes. Amazing teachers and great perspective. I never thought my online learning experience is going to be so good. Dr. Shane you are GEM! Would love to meet you one day face to face. My experience was fantastic!!!

As an audio and visual learner, this course is very effective for me because they have videos aside from the reading materials and quizzes. The teaching strategies ASU coaches have taught me are very practical. I am excited to use it very soon.

It was truly a great honor for me to participate in this course and learn so many methods i can use in my classes. thanks to Dr. shane and all the people who made this course and thanks for the financial aid. cannot wait to start the new course

Hello,

Please , I like the way the course is handled, even though we don't see the teacher physically, we can still view the videos. The presentation is expressive and fun, which makes someone to love and continue with the course. Thanks

I have learned a lot from this course even I have taken the TEFL from USA .

the teachers and the teaching methods in this course are so good .

i have learned many teaching techniques from the teachers than the material it self specially DR.shwan

This course is necessary for any English teacher. It is distinguished because it depends mainly on videos in presenting materials. The language of the pesenters is clear and is convenient for learners with competence of English equals B1 or B2.

Hello, I want to send huge thanks to all instructors who are just amazing. They are so lovely, i cant believe i could love someone without gaving a face to face interaction. Thank you for your kindness, sincerity, labour just for everything.❤️

This course is well structured and explained. Dr. Shane is a true actor and give a lot of instructions how to become an effective second language teacher. I'll purchase the whole specialization because I want to become a great teacher as well.

I couldn't rest until I completed this course! It was that good. I highly recommend it to TESL teachers. Thank you to the team of wonderful lecturers who took me on this wonderful journey of learning, relearning, unlearning and learning again!

Great course content, professors and videos. The tests were also very objective and I liked the fact that there were many of them, as online students we do need lots of feedback and the tests provided that.

Thanks, I really enjoyed the course.

A great course! Incredibly practical, with no fluff—just clear, well-explained material that gets straight to the point. Every topic is structured for real-world application, making it easy to grasp and immediately useful. Highly recommended!
