CELTA

Certificate in English Language Teaching to Adults

for TEFL(Teaching English as a Foreign Language) and TESOL(Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) Accredited by the University of Cambridge

CELTA is the initial Teacher Training award, which qualifies teachers for both ESOL (English for Speakers of Other Languages) and EFL (English as a Foreign Language) teaching throughout the world. These terms have historically been used to define various categories of learners, including temporary visitors, medium term workers and long term in-comers. The Intensive School of English (ISE) offers a unique opportunity for trainees to experience teaching and observing both ESOL and EFL practice classes. ISE can also offer teaching positions, to successful CELTA graduates. ISE is unique in offering the awards in both part-time mode over 20 weeks and intensive full-time mode over 4 weeks. The course is suitable for people educated to degree level or similar who wish to teach ESOL/EFL to adults and/or children either in the UK or abroad. Both mother tongue English speakers and those whose first language is not English may apply. The ISE CELTA will equip you with the skills, practical ability and sound theoretical basis from which to become an effective teacher of English to speakers of other languages.
