Student Review:

"I completed the CELTA Certificate at the school in Wellington and enjoyed the course enormously. I learned a great deal, had ample opportunities to practise the skills immediately, and was given feedback that helped to consolidate the process effectively. The tutors were very professional and worked tirelessly to ensure that all went smoothly. I appreciated the teachers at the school who helped us with our teaching practice and allowed us to observe their lessons - that was a real plus. Thanks to you all"
