About this program

The CELTA (Certificate in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) is the gold standard entry qualification for English language teaching worldwide. This full-time, Cambridge-validated course in Leeds prepares you for immediate classroom practice through a combination of input sessions, observed teaching practice with real students, and rigorous feedback. The programme is intensive — expect full days and evening preparation — but the result is a globally portable qualification that is recognised by language schools in over 100 countries. Entry is competitive and requires a pre-interview task. Scheduled during fixed periods throughout the year.
