Cambridge CELTA
in Hong Kong
When you're teaching, do you:
Distribute handouts or worksheets and then tell students what to do?
Ask Do you understand? Is this clear? to check if your students understand you?
Repeat your students’ answers so that everyone can hear them?
Spend more than half of your lesson to explain vocabulary or grammar items?
Nominate your students to tell you answers right after tasks?
If your answer is yes , CELTA is definitely the right course for you!
CELTA is a TEFL course created by Cambridge Assessment English and the global industry standard in English teaching.
It provides the initial training leading to the Cambridge English Certificate in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (CELTA) needed for new teachers to enter the industry and an important addition for existing teachers who wish to build on their existing skills.
CELTA is the most widely recognised English teaching qualification in the world and the most often requested by employers - three out of four English language teaching jobs require a CELTA qualification.
Is CELTA the right qualification for you?
Our CELTA courses are attended by people with a truly wide variety of professional and cultural backgrounds and experience and very often long-term international friendships are started during the course. These are some examples of people for whom CELTA is suitable:
new teachers with no experience starting their career
teachers with some experience who want to develop their skills
first-language English speakers and non-first-language speakers
teachers who want to travel and teach English
In Hong Kong, people join CELTA because they want to brush up their CVs, be internationally qualified or get ready for promotions.
