FAQs
What are the timings of the course?
The times of the course are as follows: Saturday – 09:00-18:00 Sunday- 09:00-18:00
What should I do when I arrive?
Upon entering the reception area you will likely be able to spot the signage directing you to the room (which is immediately right at the entrance), otherwise, if you mention the i-to-i course at the reception desk, the team will advise you of where to go.
What should I do if I am late?
If you are late you should call reception and they can let the course tutor know.
Do we get tea/coffee breaks?
Yes, you will get tea/coffee breaks in the morning and afternoon on the Saturday and in the morning on the Sunday along with a lunch break on both days. Complementary tea and coffee will be provided on your breaks.
What can I do for lunch?
The hotel has their own bar downstairs from the conference room; it’s nice and quiet so tends to be popular with delegates. Otherwise, there’s a Tesco Extra about a 10 minute walk up the road, Philpott’s is a nice deli sandwich place on the corner by Tesco, or there’s a McDonalds!
Is there a dress code?
You should wear something you will be comfortable in and what you would consider to be fine to wear in a classroom environment – something like jeans or trousers and some comfy shoes.

Anastasia Kucherova
When I just started the course I was scared of teaching, I don't have such experience at all, and I didn't want to make anything wrong. But now, after I finished the course, I feel really confident and well prepared for teaching, I have lots of materials to use in the classroom, I know how to make my lesson interesting, I've learnt a lot with this course. Thank you so much!
Andrew
The course is very comprehensive, gives excellent advice on use of different materials and helps the teacher assist individual students with different problems, even though they may be in a class of uniform level.

I bought this course after I had a moment of clarity. Having worked in several jobs in varying shades of soul crushing, I decided it was high time I make a change and do what I enjoy with my life. After all, I've only got one. After considering my strengths (Working with children, explaining concepts, and learning languages, to name a few pertinent ones) I decided to look into TEFL. I did some searching and reading up, and finally found i-to-i. This course was everything I was looking for. I began to learn about the ins and outs of teaching a class and re-learning concepts of English I'd long forgotten the names of. When I began, I had interest. When I finished, I had assurance. This is what I want to do, and I am capable and prepared to do it. The course work is set up in such a way that you can set the pace you need to go at. Each concept is explained in a simple but in depth way and is accompanied by video references and quizzes. Each lesson has additional articles and resources at the end if you want to know more about the subject of each module. Along the way, I got nice messages from the i-to-i team telling me to keep up the good work. After turning in my final assignments, I was met with a very kind message of congratulations. Though I know these are probably sent automatically, it was still a very big reassurance to me to always be given positive reinforcement and constant offers of assistance. Some will call this course boring. The reality is that it is demanding. Not in a "take up all your time and energy" way, but in a mental way. You are called upon to really commit yourself to studying the course content, which can be difficult if you are uncertain about your choice to pursue a career in TEFL. There are plenty of ways to talk yourself out of studying, but there is only one way to succeed: Don't quit. i-to-i, thank you so much for this excellent course! I have enjoyed immensely and plan to take additional specialized courses to expand my skill set! Keep up the great work!
