Whether you're a new teacher looking for their first teaching job, or you want to prove to employers that you have the teaching skills with a recognised certificate, CELTA is the qualification you need.

Why CELTA with The London School of English?

The LSE group's association with Cambridge University examinations dates back to 1996 when along with the British Council we initiated the process that led to the country's inaugural FCE & CAE exam session.

In 2002 we were Ukraine's first accredited CELTA centre pioneering a qualification that has since grown both in esteem and acceptance throughout the entire country.

2014 saw the opening of not only Odessa's first permanent CELTA centre but also the region's only Cambridge examination centre based here in our language school; the city's largest.

Feedback from former trainees

For me CELTA at LSE Odesa was the first step to becoming an EFL teacher. The CELTA course gave me both practical and theoretical teaching knowledge, as well as hands-on teaching experience. Most importantly, it helped me build self-confidence in the classroom and showed possible ways of further professional development.

Kseniia Hladchenko

I'd been teaching English for many years before I decided to do the CELTA course. Did it change anything? Definitely YES. Not only did I enhance my teaching skills, but I also got a new job as a methodologist with a big education company called Dinternal Education. Now I work with teachers from different parts of Ukraine sharing my knowledge and experience, helping them to feel more confident and inspired.

Nataliia Mykhnenko

The CELTA course refreshed my knowledge and gave me new methods of delivering the material, managing the class and approaching people through the language teaching process.
Through immersive experience, I have had a good opportunity to have hands on practice of everything I have learned during our demos and lessons.
It was an eye opening experience of a lifetime.

Lidiia Barska

In addition to getting to spend some time in the beautiful port city of Odessa for a month, there were numerous ways that we benefitted from the CELTA course at London School of English. For starters, it helped us gain a deeper understanding of foundational teaching methodologies that we not only learned from a theoretical standpoint, but were able to start using immediately. Additionally, receiving and giving feedback was an invaluable part of the course as it helped us fine tune our lessons in real-time. It definitely helped us have a firmer grasp on leading a class and putting together coherent lessons to maximize learning outcomes.

We believe that having our CELTA made us stronger candidates when deciding to return to Saudi for another year, this time in Riyadh. It appears to be a mandatory or preferred qualification by many employers in the region.

Lastly, I've since gone on to a role outside of teaching, but feel that many of the aspects of the CELTA have carryover application to training in any material, not just English.

Andrey & Olga Drotenko

I could not be happier to have had my CELTA training before I launched my teaching career. This meant that I started out with a competitive edge in terms of the quality of my teaching as well as my salary. I work in a language school in Malta, and here they value CELTA tremendously. It makes finding a job so much easier. Finally, I have to say that it gives you the best confidence boost if you had no teaching experience beforehand. I am forever thankful to London School of English for the quality training they equipped me with!
