What is the CELTA course?

Photo of CELTA / TEFL / TESOL Courses in Auckland, NZThe CELTA is an initial training course in English language teaching, designed for those with little or no previous teaching experience.

Why Choose CELTA at NZLC?
NZLC ALC is an approved CELTA training centre and each course is externally moderated by an external assessor approved by Cambridge ESOL (UK). The course is taught by highly qualified, experienced ELT professionals in a friendly and supportive environment.

Who can do CELTA?

Image of CELTA / TEFL / TESOL Courses in Auckland, NZApplicants must be at least 18 years old at the start of the course and have studied to a level which allows entrance to tertiary education. A tertiary level diploma or degree is preferable, but not essential. A high level of spoken and written English is required.

Non-native speakers should have an English level equivalent to an "A" pass in CAE (Certificate in Advanced English, Cambridge ESOL) or an IELTS 7.5. Your level will be checked during the CELTA application process. If your level of proficiency in English is not high enough, you can always consider other courses such as the TESOL + TKT course also offered in Auckland.

It's important for candidates to have an open and inquisitive nature and be willing to learn and try new things. An interest in language and other cultures will definitely help too.

ESL Teacher Training Courses for Non-Native English Speakers::

We also run 5-week TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) and TECSOL (Teaching English to Child Speakers of Other Languages) courses for non-native speakers, culminating in the TKT examinations.
