What our learners are saying ...
I stumbled onto your site with a Google search mid panic with the first CELTA assignment. Let me just say that it has been an absolute God-send! It is the only digital resource I will recommend to others as it is so comprehensive... Thanks for being my personal coach!
Natasha, CELTA trainee
I wanted to say a massive thank you! I attended your Taster session last September and you inspired me to apply for the CELTA at Warwick. I also completed several of your ELT Training courses and they were absolutely fantastic!!! I don't think I would have passed the CELTA (currently with a provisonal grade A) had it not been for the preparation, knowledge and understanding I acquired by completing your online courses.
Fiona, CELTA graduate
This is great, thank you so much! I actually used your materials to help my trainees. They found your site easy to navigate and your tutorials informative without being too complicated. Perfect for teachers who are not native speakers.

Grammar for Language Teachers

It's a really common problem for people who want to take CELTA that they speak the language completely fluently but don't know the nomenclature of the language or how it fits together. If you want to teach the language, you need to know this and this course 'Grammar for Language Teachers' has helped hundreds of trainees get to grips with it!
