Course Description

Whether you are new to teaching or a teacher with experience, CELTA is a course that requires preparation to pass it and get the most out of it. This preparation course with me, Ahmad Zaytoun, an Official CELTA Trainer, will ensure that you know everything you need before your CELTA starts.

Why this course? Because you will be learning from a CELTA tutor who has the same experience and knowledge about CELTA as the tutors who will be training you on your CELTA course.

By the end of this course, you will not only be informed about CELTA, but you will also have the knowledge of planning lessons, writing assignments, and techniques for teaching your assessed lessons. The course spares no detail when it comes to what CELTA involves.

The carefully planned eight sections of this course address everything a CELTA candidate needs to know to be ready for CELTA.

Highlights from the course:

  1. Explanation of the assessment criteria (get to know what we, tutors, look for when assessing a CELTA trainee)

  2. Tips to get you through CELTA,

  3. What to read before and while doing CELTA,

  4. Classroom management techniques to have control over your class,

  5. Samples from Pass A trainees to write assignments that pass,

  6. Analyzing language for lessons and assignments,

  7. Lesson planning, lesson frameworks, and writing a self-evaluation form to make sure that your plan meets the standards,

  8. Downloadable lesson plan templates with comments on how to complete them,

  9. Teaching language skills (reading, listening, speaking, writing),

  10. Teaching language systems (grammar, vocabulary),

  11. Demo lessons for language systems (external videos) to have a better idea of teaching,

  12. Writing the 4 assignments, and examining samples,

  13. Post CELTA: tips for teaching a demo lesson, finding a job, and ideas for development to keep growing as a teacher,

  14. Quizzes and questions to check your progress and understanding of the course.

*Please note that while you are doing your CELTA course, I am not allowed to answer any questions related to your lesson plans and/or assignments.

A very comprehensive course ideal for anyone doing -or about to do- the CELTA. I found the language analysis tutorials particularly useful for assignment 2, as well as for general lesson planning. It was a big help to see examples done for you to get a better idea of how to complete them

By Ruslan Hamidov on 7/28/2024

Great brush up on for those who had taken the CELTA in the past, but also a great and inspiring course for those planning to take the CELTA course. I loved the structure of the course and the clear explanations and tips as to what one should do to succeed. I also loved the touchy music as it inspires and pushes forward to study and review. Thanks a lot for this amazing course!

By Leandro da Silva Goncalves on 2/13/2024

The course teaches invaluable content, even if, like me, you're not planning to take the Celta now. It's concise and full of techniques that can be easily implemented in our classes with noticeable results.

By Salma Aittaleb on 8/19/2023

This course is everything you need to know/expect before you take CELTA. I enrolled in this course to lower my stress levels before taking the CELTA, as I tend to freak out when I have no knowledge of what to expect. The input provides all knowledge you are expected to learn and do during your course. I thank Ahmad for his concise course design and immediate response when I had questions.

By Oktay Akif on 8/29/2021

Incredibly helpful for someone with no ELT experience. Ahmad is very skillful and humble tutor. I highly recommend this course to everyone, who considers the CELTA.

By Maryna Zakharova on 4/14/2021

This course is really intersting and informative for me. It helps to understand the main idea of the CELTA course and fully prepare for it. Truly grateful for this opportunity

By Tilo Ortega on 1/24/2021

I'm glad I did Ahmad's course, it's made me feel more prepared for my upcoming CELTA training. Doing one or two sections a day is very manageable. I will refer to it again and definitely use the recommended resources.

By Assyl Sabbagh on 1/9/2021

Well I think it's going to help me in teaching

By Mirna Atef on 12/13/2020

Mr. Ahmed is one of the best CELTA tutors who is very helpful and thoughtful with every single student and that was crystal clear in the content preparation. It was easy to talk to him and ask for advice. I am extremely impressed with the course as it's brief and integrated as well. I am also impressed by the tutor attention to inclusiveness in the material , especially when he mentioned how to design timelines ,and when he mentioned the resources we should be supplied with before and during the CELTA course.

By Mostafa Thabet on 12/3/2020

Thank you so much. You rock. This course takes someone from scratch to be aware of approaches, stages, techniques and activities which facilitate your quest to do CETLA. Despite the fact that the worldwide web contains ample resources and references, this course guides you on what to read to do activities and stages how to answer the assignments and analyze the errors and how to reflect on yourself.This is a quick review.
