They pride themselves "on being one of the few centers in North America approved by the University of Cambridge to provide programs preparing for the prestigious RSA Cambridge CELTA qualification for teachers of English as a foreign language (TEFL). The four-week, 120-hour CELTA course is full-time and very intensive. Participants should be prepared to spend ten to twelve hours daily in teaching practice, input sessions, tutorials and lesson planning during the four weeks. Employment during the course and long commutes to the course center are strongly discouraged." |
