Student Review:

Photo of CELTA / TEFL Course in PortugalAlthough I had taught English for several years before attending the CELTA Training Centre in Lisbon, I found that my month there working closely with the excellent tutors completely revolutionized the way I approached my work in the classroom. Every aspect of the teaching process, including planning, execution, teaching theory and resources, was covered in intricate detail, allowing me to gain a much deeper understanding of what it takes to be an effective teacher who can really improve their students through engaging and stimulating lessons.

Tutors were incredibly experienced and provided a constant source of support and knowledge whenever required. I received insightful and practical feedback on a daily basis which I was able to immediately incorporate into my teaching, leading to consistent improvement. The organization of the course was exceptional, with information and resources shared in a well-structured and considerate fashion. Without this approach, along with the careful guidance and reminders from tutors, the heavy workload would undoubtedly have been overwhelming.

The CELTA Training Centre in Lisbon helped me to become a much more organized, efficient and effective teacher. More importantly, it allowed me to develop a much deeper affection for this work and a better understanding of the profession as a whole. For anyone considering a career in teaching English, I cannot recommend the CELTA course enough.

CELTA Teacher Training Courses:

Designed for native and non-native speakers of English with a high level of English proficiency, who have little or no experience of teaching, the CELTA course is one of the leading qualifications in the English Language Teaching industry. It is the minimum qualification required to work at a British Council-accredited school in the U.K., and in most established language schools in Portugal and worldwide. 

StudyCELTA offers:

- Full-time, 4-week Cambridge CELTA course which is available all year round.

- Part-time or blended course which takes 12 weeks to complete, and combines face-to-face classes with online lessons. Because students must attend the Teacher Training Centre once a week for the teaching practice component, this course is best suited to students living in the Greater Lisbon area.

Portuguese Language Courses:
In addition to our teacher training courses, we offer intensive and super-intensive Portuguese language classes which can be taken before or after your CELTA course.

Job Assistance:
StudyCELTA provides all of our CELTA candidates with job assistance.

Delta Course Modules:

Delta - Diploma in English Language Teaching to Adults

The Delta Modules are intended to offer candidates who have substantial experience of teaching English to adult speakers of other languages the opportunity to:

• examine their current practices and beliefs;

• apply the results of their learning and reflection to their current professional lives and to circumstances beyond their present and previous teaching experience.

Student Review:

"I was working as an elementary school teacher in a New York City suburb. I wanted a change, to travel, to learn Spanish and to learn more about English as a language, too. I really enjoyed the CELTA course in Barcelona, particularly the parts which involved looking at language, and it was especially useful to me to consider how to present it to adults. Like most teachers, I now find myself with classes of both teenagers and adults."
