It could also be for the person who has taken a course and probably forgot what they learned.
Learn how to teach English (especially to kids) with this practical quick start guide to teaching ESL.
Here's a review from Dolly who took ESLinsider's 120 hour online course:
"I just completed the 120 hour online TEFL course. I am an experienced teacher, having taught Science and Gifted Education in the US for ten years prior to coming to Taiwan. Although teacher prep programs will help, many aspects of teaching EFL are unique. I wish I would have taken this course BEFORE I started teaching here three years ago. The methods and insights given in ESL Insider's 120 hour TEFL course could have saved me a lot of grief and disappointment. Now I am optimistic about starting a new school year armed with better lessons and a realigned perspective. Thank you, ESL Insider!"
Here's a quote from Hollerich on Reddit:
"Too much material is thrown at the candidate in too little time. That is my biggest concern with a course like the CELTA. Not enough time to digest and really think about what is thrown at you in a month long course."
