•  "CELTA was definitely one of the most fulfilling experiences I've ever had. The combination of theory and practice made me fully equipped to teach English straight after the course.

It's amazing how much you can learn in such a short period of time. It was lots of hard work, but mostly lots of fun!"
Joelle

•  "CELTA changed my life! I had taught language before but I always felt a bit unsure of what I was doing – not since CELTA! The course was interesting, challenging (in a good way) and the trainers were very experienced and professional.

I really learned a lot from it and I wouldn't change my experience for the world! I would recommend the course to anyone, especially to someone who is in any way interested in language and/or teaching. The world will be at your feet!"
