Student Voices: Deepak
The ILE: TESOL Program at Soka University was an invaluable experience for me, as this is designed for those passionate about becoming future English language teachers and academic leaders. The exploration of ELT theory and its practical applications through academic writing, classroom observations, and teaching practicum has refined my teaching skills and boosted my confidence in applying my acquired knowledge. The student-centered approach of the program and insightful feedback from the faculty fostered my autonomous development of teaching strategies, critical thinking, and classroom management skills. These experiences have led me to work as a part-time lecturer in Japan, with plans to pursue a PhD soon. I am grateful to the TESOL family for inspiring me to grow as an educator and researcher.
