THE CELTA DATES AND FEES

CELTA trainees at ELH

WE ARE VERY PROUD OF OUR CELTA TRAINEES WHO HAVE ACHIEVED
100% PASS RATE TO DATE

All course start dates are dependent on candidate enrolments. Courses we run may have a minimum of 4 and a maximum of 12 candidates. Mixed mode courses will run if Covid permits. Candidates who apply for a mixed mode course will need to be aware that we may need to move to an Online delivery mode if necessary.

At the start of each course you will be given access to the Cambridge CELTA training platform via Moodle so that you can access the course modules and complete ongoing tasks and assignments your trainers will set. You will meet your trainers Face2Face or via Zoom for input, teaching practice, feedback and Q&As. They will support you throughout the course and be on hand to help you with any queries and problems you may have as the course progresses.
