I did my CELTA with St Giles. They have branches in the UK and USA. They have a 99% pass rate! I actually did my CELTA in my home city, and found that really useful because I could stay with family. They helped me so much by cooking meals (to make sure I ate!), letting me use their printers and being quiet and considerate when I was working. I deactivated Facebook for the month as well to really focus - I suggest all CELTA trainees do this! The course is open to experienced teachers and people who have never taught before. I actually think it's easier for the totally inexperienced people. The CELTA method is very precise and if you're currently teaching, you may have to adopt some new practices or undo some habits in order to comply with the CELTA way. Remember that although the month-long course is very intensive and informative, the training centre and the trainers really have your best interests at heart. They want you to pass! They'll do what they can to help you get the best score to reflect your teaching abilities. So be open to their feedback and advice, learn from it and put it into practice.

Thank you for the video, it was super informative. I have recently started the course online, part time with a branch in Spain and although it is quite tiring, (working full time in primary education) I have been enjoying it a lot and looking forward to each course day. Working with students via zoom is different from a real classroom, but we learn to use online tools and that is quite useful these days. Being able to do learning and teaching from the comfort of my home is brilliant and my teachers are super nice and supportive. I watched your video for the first time before I started the course and I found it super helpful. Just wanted to leave this here for those who are thinking to do the course online - it is great! It is also nice studying with people from all around the world, learning about each others' cultures and countries.

@@hopelol200 Well, it's really impossible to describe the course, you just need to experience it yourself to get any idea what it is like. I tell you this, you must be very well prepared mentally cause there is a constant pressure on you and after the first week you might just feel overwhelmed with the tasks. Having a lot of free time every evening is necessary to cope with that. The support of the tutors however is abolutely incredible, real professionals who relentlessly double down on your mistakes telling you exactly which aspects of your classes need improving. They are very specific about it, so I had the feeling I finally began to understand what teaching is really about :) Great pressure - yes - but the satisfaction you get when you pass - priceless! And now I am working in a private school in Poland, the most renowned one in my city - and CELTA certificate was all they need about my credentials :)
