Believe me, I learned in 4 weeks what I hadn't learned about teaching in my whole life

Before the CELTA I was but a boy; now, 20 gruelling and intensive sessions later, I can finally call myself a Man, ready for combat in any classroom situation !

It' s been an incredible experience. Intense, overwhelming. I've been required every bit of my stamina, but I'm satisfied with it, and I've made firm friends.

Doing a CELTA course and it would mean the world for me if I pass. Very intensive and nerve racking!

I started the CELTA as someone who taught, and ended it as a teacher. I cannot express how much of an influence it was on my teaching. It was an invaluable.

It's a tough course, but will form you as a teacher. Great teacher trainers and never ending resources and ideas to use for teaching. A must for any teacher...

CELTA taught me to trust the students; to prompt then sit back, shut up & listen. They'll tell you by mistakes & successes what you need to teach.

It was fantastic. I learned so much about ELT. I never would have been prepared to enter the classroom otherwise. It gave me the foundation I needed.

A new way of teaching, a new way of life! Thanks to the wonderful teacher trainers, I can manage small and huge groups of students with confidence.

Great course, it really changed my attitude towards teaching... and learning! Just amazing.

Excellent course, w/ exceptional teacher trainers. It gave me more confidence in the classroom, and a strong foundation I can continue to build on. 2 thumbs up!

Took mine after 1 year teaching English. It was after this that I felt I could call myself a real teacher. Even my students felt the difference in the lessons!

best course I ever took.
It gave me the instruments I needed to grow as a teacher. It should be mandatory for anyone wanting to teach the language!!!

I took my CELTA in 2009. It was soooo interesting - I'm thinking of doing the DELTA in a few years. :-)
