Customer Feedback

An excellent course! The best teacher training I have ever had! The trainers are excellent - highly professional, hard-working and sensitive to our needs.

John Baillie

The trainers were excellent and I thought they ran the course really well. They obviously know what they are doing and what they're talking about.
I'd recommend the centre to anyone who wants to do the course.
I really enjoyed the and learned a lot from it. The observation of experienced teachers and other trainees was particularly valuable, and I was surprised how much I enjoyed teaching practice and bonded with the students. I am glad I did the course and think it will really help me when I start teaching.

Frances Noble


This was truly excellent. I cannot say enough about the course content, the organisation and both trainers.
The volume of work was immense and I did find this difficult but after I decided to put my whole life on hold for the full four weeks, I was able to achieve my aim and satisfactorily complete it.

Course Description

The CELTA Certificate is the most widely recognised qualification for entry to the ELT profession. It is a well-established qualification which has an excellent reputation both overseas and in the UK. This 4-week full-time course consists of lectures, workshops, lesson observation, teaching practice and feedback.

Your teaching practice sessions will be at a minimum of two levels. Initially, these lessons are quite short and you receive considerable guidance from your tutors. As the course progresses these lessons become longer and you are expected to make more decisions about what and how to teach. By the end of the course, although you will still require some support, you will be ready to teach in most English Language Teaching situations throughout the world.

Assessment is continuous and all aspects of your coursework are taken into consideration: attendance, assignments, teaching, participation, attitude and potential as a teacher. You are clearly informed of your progress in tutorials and receive written feedback on your lessons and coursework. Grades and certificates are awarded to successful candidates by UCLES, the University of Cambridge Local Examinations Syndicate.
