CELTA (Cambridge Certificate in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) is one of the most globally recognised qualifications for teaching English to speakers of other languages. It will enable you to apply for teaching posts either overseas or in the UK. It is regarded by employers as providing sound initial training and a strong basis from which to develop as a teacher of English.
CELTA is also an excellent way of enhancing your employability and if you are thinking of working locally, travelling over the summer, or taking a gap year after university CELTA is a great way to earn money.
The Centre for English and World Languages (CEWL) is offering an intensive full time 5-week programme starting on Monday 18 June 2018.
