CELT–P: Certificate in English Language Teaching – Primary
CELT-S: Certificate in English Language Teaching – Secondary
It’s a practical English teaching qualification that gives teachers the relevant skills to get the best from learners. The practical component helps provide hands-on experience to the participants.
The course helps teachers to create strategies for the key challenges of teaching English as a foreign language (TEFL) in a secondary school context, such as classroom management with large classes and motivating learners.
Teachers build on their teaching knowledge and skills, through a combination of online study and observed teaching practice with an approved trainer.
