Course Description

The CELTA course is awarded by UCLES - University of Cambridge and is the best known and most widely recognised pre-service training course in the world. It qualifies trainees to teach English as a foreign language across all continents.

It is designed as a pre-service course for people with little or no previous teaching experience; it is also suitable for those who have been teaching but have never undergone formal teacher-training. The course involves Teaching Principles, Practical Skills for teaching English to adults and Lesson Preparation. Trainees are assessed throughout the course on Teaching Practice and Written Assignments. Great importance is attached to quality control and every course is moderated by an UCLES external assessor.


Accommodation Options

The school does not have an accommodation service as such but recommends hotels that past trainees have stayed in and approved. You should email or call them to negotiate special deal if you're going to be staying for more than 30 days (contact details for them can be found on the application form).
