Very well structured, and Dr. Shane does a great job explaining all the strategies and concepts key to language teachers and students. Everybody involved did an excellent job. I loved it!

As a Foundations Course it is excellent, allowing giving a good introduction that is not difficult, allowing you to decide whether you want to continue with the rest of the certification.

This was a very enjoyable course. The lectures and exercises were thought provoking. I reviewed a lot of what I already know and practice, and learned some very important new concepts.

What an excellent course into which one learned a lot of effective skills as a teacher. I highly recommended it to the next teachers who would like to be successful in their professions.

I have learned so much through this course. I am from a developing country the education opportunity is limited and not really up to date. Once again, thank you Coursera and the trainer.

This course has been a great experience for me. I has widened my viewpoints. Dr. Shane has been such an amazing instructor. I hope I will be able to use what I have learn in my teaching.

Many thanks to the teachers for such an interesting course. Everything was very clear and fun. I literally lit a fire in myself that will light the way for my students. (Polina. Russia)

Honestly, Dr. Shane Dixon is an amazing teacher and I know he couldn't have done it without his team. They all did a wonderful job teaching this course! I cannot wait for the second one.

The essential question is the best part of the course triggering the need for getting deeper into analyzing what I am learning.

Both teachers are very entertaining and I learned a lot from them. Their metaphors and interesting stories really helped to understand the concepts covered during the course. Thank you!
