As an ESL teacher and a learner, this course provided me substantial information on how I can teach my students better by understanding the core values of teaching. I highly recommend this course to those who want to expand their knowledge about learning and teaching English.

I highly recommend this course to anyone thinking about or already teaching English as a second/foreign language. I thoroughly enjoyed it! Thank you to ASU for presenting the course in such an interesting fashion and to Coursera for hosting it entirely online for convenience.

This course is very helpful. It pact with a lot learnings yet the way the lessons are presented are very easy to understand. I like how the lessons are presented in a "bit sized" manners. I do not feel overwhelmed with the lesson and the learnings are very easy to "digest".

Thanks Dr. Shane and all staff members for such a great and competent course. I learned a lot of great things that I will put into my mind and I think that I started to form my own teaching philosophy thank to you.

YOU are really great instructors and teachers, Love you all.

I want to thank Coursera and ASU for putting together this wonderful course. The information was so clear and the videos were very engaging. The tasks were challenging and made me analyze my own views on teaching a language. I am looking forward to starting the next course.

I like this course, sometimes it is teaching us how to be a better man more than being a good teacher.You should find your core for life and make connections with the world. Keep positive and balance in daily life. Most of times, we forget all of these, and lost ourselves.

It is an excellent course for all of us who are teachers. It is a simple, punctual, exact and assertive course, with a clear language. I am very satisfied after having completed the first part and I am preparing now to begin the second course of the series. THANKS !!!!!!!

When I started TESOL course, I didn't quite understand this module. Now, I'm almost at the end of part 2 of this course, and finally, I have a better understanding some this foundational principles. It's a great course for anyone who wants to understand basics of pedagogy.

This course gave a great baseline for getting started in TESOL. I learned as much from watching the professor model good teaching as I did from the content of the videos. I highly recommend this course if you are considering teaching English to speakers of other languages.

Un curso muy útil para quienes tenemos y/o queremos ensenar ESL y mejorar nuestras técnicas para dar lo mejor de nosotros a nuestros alumnos. Su formato es muy practico y lleno de herramientas y métodos educativos. Pero al mismo tiempo es Simple y divertido! Me encanta!!!

I really thank the instructors of this course. I learned lots of thing while having fun and without getting bored. I really liked the course. thank you Coursera and thank you all instructors at Arizona State University specially Prof. Dr. Dixon for your amazing teaching .

Thanks ASU for the Certificate and thanks for the tremendous knowledge they share, I am very delighted to learn a lot from you!I have to admit that you have set a great balance between delievering a lot in even very short video lectures! You did a great job! Many thanks..

This course is well structured and easy to follow. I love the metaphors used in this course. I also like the presentation by Dr. Dixon and Dr. Harraway. A credit also goes to Dr. Shewel. Overall, this course is helpful and I have used it in my teaching. Thank youso much!

The course is great! The content are well arranged and succinct and interesting. How the teaching team presents all the ideas has shown that they are professional. The course is really friendly to me as a non-native English speaker. Highly recommend for any ESL teacher.

this course is very interesting though it has to do with the linguistic side and my domain is literature. it helps teachers act and do well in their classroom by strategies and techniques that are really fruitful. thank you for giving us this chance to enroll for free...

all the materials are great and the videos are perfect in the terms of being short and efficient .also the fact that they build a strong community by nudging you toward upload your assignment and review and give comment to your peers makes this course even more special.

Hi, there. I found this "Teach English Now" course on foundation principles to be great in every way. Not only was it enlighting and, full of information but, it also shows how one can become an effective language teacher. Thank you Shane, and, the rest of your team too.

I REALLY love it! Thank you very much! I've never been a part of an online course; this is my first time, and it will never be the last!

I LOVE YOU all! VERY VERY interesting, beneficial, well-prepared ... I love everything you delivered! WOW!

I'm very happy I got 99! WOW!

I love all of the teachers, who were so enthusiastic, inspired, and professional. The course contents were essential not only to me but also to everyone who wants to become a language teacher in the future. Thank you for such a memorable, usable, and durable experience.

Total joy! The course is developed so that you don't only learn things about teaching, but also you are given perfect examples, vivid imagery of how things must be taught, to say nothing of all the inspiration and motivation you get from these professionals. Thank you!

This is really an interesting course with a very substantial modules that could definitely equip someone who wanted to become a language learner or a teacher. Quite impressive curriculum and the professor are very witty and had shown expertise about the the subjects.

It was a really good education program for me and even though I am an actual English teacher I have gotten lots of new information thourght the course and I understood that it doesn't matter how much you get you just need to seek for more to be a good teacher everyday!

So much to learn. The materials are very informative and really may help educators to nurture their skills in spreading their knowledge to their students. As well as the instructors are have modulated voice that helped the learners of this course understand everything.

This course is really helpful for teachers and persons who would like to start teaching. From my point of view, the best part of the course is summarizing your new knowledge by writing peer-graded assignments. I really enjoyed the course and hope to do the other parts.

I'm grateful for the financial aid I've received to cover this course. It took me one week to literally wolf all the information down. I love the professors and I love the ideas they share. I can't wait to continue this amazing journey to TESOL certification with ASU!
