What is CELTA?

CELTA (Cambridge Certificate in English Language Teaching to Adults) is an internationally recognised qualification in the teaching of English to speakers of other languages.

CELTA course is to develop a practical awareness of adult learners, the English language, and language learning materials and resources. There are three components of assessment: candidate’s professional development, assessment of teaching practice and written assignments. You will have written assignments, and your progress will be assessed throughout the course. There is no final exam. Each course is assessed by an external assessor (approved and appointed by Cambridge).
