Reviews

I recently completed the CELTA course at CELT Athens, and I couldn't be more satisfied with my experience. From start to finish, the support I received from the tutors and the center was exceptional.

The tutors, especially Mohammad Al Mohammady, played an integral role in making this a truly valuable experience. Mohammad’s feedback was incredibly detailed, constructive, and supportive. His insights into both my teaching and lesson planning helped me grow tremendously as a teacher. The level of personalized feedback I received helped me refine my skills and boosted my confidence in the classroom.

What was your funniest moment?

The funniest part of my CELTA journey was the emotional rollercoaster—I was laughing and crying at the same time! The intensity of the course, combined with personal challenges, made for some surreal moments. I even lost 5 kilos, which I never expected while studying to be a teacher!

Another memorable moment was teaching a lesson while feeding my child. It was chaotic but showed me just how adaptable you need to be as both a teacher and a person.

The best part of the experience, though, was meeting people from all over the world. I now have friends in many different countries, and the bonds we formed during those intense weeks are ones I’ll always treasure.

Despite the challenges, the CELTA was full of laughter, growth, and unforgettable moments. I wouldn’t trade it for anything.

I attended the full-time CELTA course in July at CELT Athens and it was a memorable experience. The course was very intensive but extremely rewarding, providing me with the skills and confidence needed to start my journey as an English language teacher. A major highlight was the support and expertise of my tutors. They were not only highly knowledgeable but also genuinely invested in our success. Their constructive feedback and encouragement during teaching practice were invaluable, helping me refine my techniques and grow as an educator.

The course structure was overall well-organized, with a balanced mix of practical teaching sessions, input lessons, and peer collaboration. Despite the challenging pace, the tutors created a positive and motivating learning environment that made the experience enjoyable (beware though: know that if you choose the full-time course you will not sleep enough: make sure you can sustain this pace for 4 weeks! ;-). I also appreciated the opportunity to work with real students from diverse backgrounds, which added authenticity to the training. Overall, this CELTA course was a transformative experience, and I highly recommend it to anyone pursuing a career in teaching English.

Both Marissa and Paul helped me during my Module 1 and 3 DELTAs, the latter of which I really struggled with. Without their support and positive guidance, I would have never passed but they gave me the confidence and skills to do so!

They were able to help me locate the necessary resources and had a wide range of books and materials to help with my essay. They were also very respectful with their feedback which always pointed me in the right direction. Doing ELTM was definitely difficult but it was absolutely worth it in the end thanks to them both!

Taking the DELTA course at CELT Athens was one of the most enjoyable experiences of my life. The enthusiasm instilled in me and my classmates by the highly professional instructors made us lose track of time. After the course ended, I deeply missed my teachers and classmates from various nationalities. The instructors' teaching style, behavior towards students, and constant support reflected their extensive experience in conducting professional teacher training courses for many years. I am delighted that I completed all the DELTA modules at CELT Athens, and the successes I achieved undoubtedly demonstrate the effectiveness of the course.

CELT has knowledgeable and supportive tutors. They helped me at every stage of the course. Although the course was entirely online, I felt so comfortable as if it was face to face. Strong relationships were formed among the trainees and that was great. I met people from literally all over the world which broadened my horizons. Such a great course for Personal Development! It made me feel more confident about who I am professionally. So take my word and give it a try!

I obtained my Module 2 with a Merit and am currently happy working in Scotland where I have a highly rewarding career.
