CAMBRIDGE CELTA COURSES

The Cambridge CELTA provides a basis in English language teaching (TEFL) both for those with no previous teaching experience and those who have taught before but want an internationally recognised teaching qualification.

There are countless "TEFL" courses on the market but none of them are as widely recognised as CELTA and many do not even include a pratical element with real learners of English. Unlike these other courses, every single CELTA course is assessed by Cambridge University, which ensures that all CELTAs worldwide meet the same high standards.

CAMBRIDGE CELTA COURSE PRICE

The price of the CELTA course at Hyland Language Centre (full time or part time) is 1,570 Euros, including all Cambridge fees. Following acceptance on the course, your place can be reserved by paying a deposit of 570 Euros, with the balance of 1,000 Euros to be paid one month in advance of the start of the course.

WHO CAN DO CELTA?

Applicants are normally aged 21 and above, though candidates from 18 upwards are also welcome to apply. The course is designed for native speakers of English and non-native speakers with a high standard of written and spoken English. Candidates must have, as a minimum, university entrance level education, and show evidence of commitment, aptitude for teaching and hard work.

CAREER OPPORTUNITIES

The Cambridge CELTA opens the door to the world of language teaching on every corner of the earth. Most, if not all, reputable language schools require their teachers to have the CELTA certificate which is a form of guarantee that candidates have a strong and thorough training qualification before employing them. Obtaining the CELTA qualification allows teachers to travel the world and live and work in different countries and amongst different cultures. It also provides people with an opportunity to obtain a new set of skills and therefore seek a career change in a relatively short period of time. Given the current global economic climate, the demand for CELTA qualified English teachers is growing as the need for students and professionals to improve their English language skills increases.

Upon completing the CELTA course at Hyland Language Centre the school will consider employing, whenever possible, any CELTA student who is awarded an A or B grade on the course (who is able to work legally in Spain). This can include employment for summer intensive courses and/or for year round (academic) programs. Help and support is always available both during and after the course.

Finally, there is also the opportunity for continued post CELTA course professional development at our Hyland Teacher Training seminars offered throughout the academic year, free of charge to all teachers who complete their CELTA at Hyland Language Centre.

ACCOMMODATION

Hyland can arrange accommodation for the full duration of the course. This is normally a room in a shared apartment with easy access to Hyland and to the amenities of the city centre. Prices for a month are around 500 Euros and include all gas, electricity and water.
