Customer Feedback
Very good, very great input sessions. A thoroughly rewarding experience!!!
-Philip Dickie-
Intensive, stressful at times, but very rewarding!
-Claire Stephenson-
The course was very intensive which I was fully aware of before I started. Even though the workload was heavy I found the course very stimulating and engaging. I enjoyed the teaching practice. Overall a very positive experience.
-Catherine Anderson-
The school and the quality of trainers were to the highest of standards. They always had time to help us trainees when we needed it. The course was intensive, as it suggests, and it did not let up for the four weeks. The amount of work was however worth it, as I learned a lot about how to teach EFL, and has given me a real enthusiasm to go out and find work within the TEFL industry.
-Matthew Todd-
Teaching was first class and the level of support was excellent. I enjoyed the whole course, well worth the cost!
-Sue Badger-
I thoroughly enjoyed the course – it exceeded my expectations. The centre is very organised and the tutors are very well prepared. Thanks for everything.
-Adriana Collins-

Help for Jobs
The CELTA course includes a session on Future opportunities: A career in EFL. The session takes place at the end of the course and aims to provide guidance on how to look for a job. Interview format as well as possible questions are also discussed in order to further clarify the process of job seeking.
In addition, trainees are given details of vacancies that may be going at the time and directed to take a closer look at the jobs board in the training room. The school has regular contact with various recruitment agencies and schools worldwide and whenever details of jobs are passed on to us they are posted on the jobs board.
We are not a recruitment agency and therefore we cannot guarantee that we will find a job for trainees on successful completion of the course. However, we do give help and offer practical advice in the later stages of each course.
