I do not have words to explain how much I learned from this course. It worths in my professional and personal life; now it's possible to understand better my students to improve their English without forget their personal style and after facing another teachers explaning best ways to plan and organize classes...AMAZING! Thanks Coursera and Arizona State University for this opportunity.

This class covered topics I did not learn during my TEFL class so long ago. I found it engaging, challenging, and do-able. I enjoyed the around-the-world theme. It was interesting to listen to different teachers present their teaching methods. Dr. Neilson was very pithy with TBLT teaching. Overall, it is an excellent class and I feel better prepared to teach online.

The course was fundamental and resourceful.No doubt I gained knowledge and experience.I sorted out in my mind and I will try to use everything in my future lessons. The practicum would be significant and useful but I can't afford it since I am unemployed for long...Anyway I appreciated all and I really thank you, for that!!!

Great course! All the information was provided in an easy, funny, practical and little-by-little way. I'm not a native English speaker, but I could understand almost everything. When not, I was able to use the transcription provided by Coursera. Thank you, Coursera! Thank you, Arizona State University!

A simple introductory course for online teaching. It gives quite an interesting insight on what online teaching truly is. In the end if a person is interested in learning how to teach online in more detail there is further program suggested for that. Thank you for the experience.

That was a very interesting course, especially the techniques used to teach learners how to teach online. I really enjoyed Broaden`s adventure around different countries and learn a new language online. I really like examples from real online teaching. Thank you a lot!

Well, This course was an awesome learning experience, Online learning, and teaching always bother me in a sense requiring time and connectivity issue but this course is far more flexible and entertaining. I was not even bored for a single second. Thank you, Team.

This is like an introductory course to teaching, it teaches different learning theories and concepts such as 'input', 'output', 'task', the importance of repetition and different types of feedback. It is pretty good, but is not a specialized course in any area.

For someone who didn't know anything about how to teach language online, this course was extremely helpful. Yes some of the videos might have been cheesy, but they aren't professional actors, so that was okay. The overall information was clearly showed.
