@SueAnnan what would you like me to tell you about lovely Sue? Sorry if I've accidentally gatecrashed an #ELTchat - didn't realise!!! |
| Marisa_C |
2016-02-10T21:42:22 |
@racheldaw18 @SueAnnan indeed you have - blown the chat apart actually! #ELTchat |

We are discussing things you would have liked more/ less of in your Cert training #ELTchat |

@carlaraguseo Is there any classroom training, though? #eltchat |
| carlaraguseo |
2016-02-10T21:42:48 |
Sure, Practicum ! #ELTchat |
| angelos_bollas |
2016-02-10T21:42:59 |
So, what would the ideal initial training course be about? #eltchat |

RT @Marisa_C: I was just looking at the index of an advanced grammar book earlier - https://t.co/5WxYS4xpId #eltchat |
| Marisa_C |
2016-02-10T21:43:12 |
How many hours of teaching practicum did you have and how many would you have liked? #ELTchat |
| SueAnnan |
2016-02-10T21:43:33 |
I did some training in Malta- long time ago, where practice was eschewed for theory. It was a carcrash. Not the same today #ELTchat |
| Marisa_C |
2016-02-10T21:43:56 |
I only had 30 mins of peer teaching and then one hour of teaching a class of adults - then they hire me - was a bit of a shocker! #ELTchat |
| racheldaw18 |
2016-02-10T21:44:37 |
Just caught up with the topic #ELTchat More: phonology training, beginners training. Less of: language teaching (degree in langs = not nec) |

@Marisa_C We hade several weeks in 3rd and 4th year #ELTchat |
| angelos_bollas |
2016-02-10T21:44:49 |
I had 8 TPs, back then I wanted to have 0hrs, but I needed (and still do) 100+ #eltchat https://t.co/WnbttzQZGG |

2016-02-10T21:44:58 |
@Marisa_C Wow, talk about sink or swim! #eltchat |
| SueAnnan |
2016-02-10T21:45:11 |
I had 4x20mins, 2x40 and 1hour. Our lessons are 90mins- no practice in real terms! #ELTchat |
| carlaraguseo |
2016-02-10T21:46:23 |
@angelos_bollas Sure, practicum in 3rd and 4th year!#eltchat |
| Shaunwilden |
2016-02-10T21:46:49 |
@SueAnnan yes but 90 min is not good for training, the more teaching practice you have the more chance of showing improvement #eltchat |
| Marisa_C |
2016-02-10T21:47:27 |
@carlaraguseo @angelos_bollas I think Carla is talking about a Uni degree course not a Certificate course like a CELTA - more time #ELTchat |
| racheldaw18 |
2016-02-10T21:47:55 |
I also agree that the benefits of doing your #CELTA or similar in the place you want to teach should be highlighted more #ELTchat |
| Marisa_C |
2016-02-10T21:47:59 |
@aaronbroyer more sink less swim at first!!! #ELTchat |
| SueAnnan |
2016-02-10T21:48:01 |
Okay @Shaunwilden but at least one lesson of a similar length would have helped #ELTchat |
| angelos_bollas |
2016-02-10T21:48:05 |
@Marisa_C @carlaraguseo Not sure if we could call this teacher training course.. More like teacher education one #eltchat |

@carlaraguseo @angelos_bollas TT colleges are tertiary education here #ELTchat |
| carlaraguseo |
2016-02-10T21:48:40 |
@Marisa_C sure, it's teacher education #ELTchat |
| angelos_bollas |
2016-02-10T21:49:12 |
@racheldaw18 How so? #eltchat |
| Marisa_C |
2016-02-10T21:49:13 |
I did appreciate one think tho - my trainer (who I wouldn't hire to make coffee as a trainer) was a truly gifted and inspiring T #ELTchat |
| Marisa_C |
2016-02-10T21:49:52 |
Cont. So I watched a number of awesome lessons - so yes I think demo lessons with a great teacher are important #ELTchat |
| angelos_bollas |
2016-02-10T21:50:08 |
Indeed important - Trainers should act as example teachers #eltchat https://t.co/vKDDAgbsV9 |
| carlaraguseo |
2016-02-10T21:50:09 |
@Marisa_C are these teacher training courses mainly for native speakers? #ELTchat |

@angelos_bollas I just feel I got more from the #CELTA & trainers in Berlin coz I then taught in Berlin-all their tidbits added up!#eltchat |

But always helpful to have in training courses - Trainees need to have sb to look up to #ELTchat https://t.co/yFZBVxsREV |

2016-02-10T21:52:43 |
@SueAnnan you can say that again #ELTchat |
| Marisa_C |
2016-02-10T21:53:50 |
Would you have liked more trainer feedback or less? More from your fellow-trainees or less? #ELTchat |
| Marisa_C |
2016-02-10T21:54:38 |
And would you have liked to have all your lessons recorded AND enough time to analyse them with tutor (NEVER enough! ) #ELTchat |
| kendraELT |
2016-02-10T21:54:41 |
I would have liked less feedback, but I think we can all always use more #ELTchat |
| vickyloras |

More in both cases #ELTChat https://t.co/j8hGyeOWNk |

@kendraELT so you felt it was too much or too bitty? #ELTchat |
| SueAnnan |
2016-02-10T21:55:09 |
Last 5minutes. Can we interest anyone in writing the summary of this chat? #ELTchat |
| carlaraguseo |
2016-02-10T21:55:23 |
I just got trainer feedback. Feedback from fellow traineed would have been useful! #ELTchat |
| Marisa_C |
2016-02-10T21:55:27 |
@kendraELT or TOO detailed missing the bigger picture? #ELTchat |
| angelos_bollas |
2016-02-10T21:55:51 |
@Marisa_C I think it's both for me. fellow trainees have a different eye from the one of the experienced tutor. Both needed, though #eltchat |
| theteacherjames |
2016-02-10T21:56:12 |
@Marisa_C The feedback from both trainees and the tutors was the best thing about my CELTA. #ELTchat |
