You cannot teach adults the same way you teach children

Adults have different needs, wants and motivations. Unlike young learners they come to a foreign language programme with very high expectations and greater demands for quality and a quick return. They have less time, patience or perseverance to go through a lengthy programme and usually come to class after a long day at work, ready to drop off at a moment's notice! 

This short 30-hour update course offered by CELT Athens deals with demands and requirements of teaching and supporting adult learners and introduces the teacher to a wide range of techniques, which will ensure faster results, and a rate of acquisition that satisfies the adult as a client.

bullet Task Based Learning & the Lexical Approach - Teaching Language as Communication 
bullet Good Group Dynamics - Effective Classroom Management

The Cambridge CELTA course aims to provide participants with a solid foundation for effective teaching and further professional development and can be used as a preparation level course for the courses listed below:

Trainees who have attended this course DO NOT need to attend the preparation course for the ASEP examinations.
 
The Cambridge CELTA course is also excellent as preparation for those who wish to later follow more advanced level courses, such as the Cambridge DELTA Diploma or the Advanced Studies in ELT Courses.
 
Cambridge CELTA holders DO NOT need to attend any further preparation courses for the TKT unless they wish to revise some of the examination content- all our trainees who have sat for these examinations were fully capable of dealing with the examination and have received high grades.
 
For further development after completing this course, you may be interested in one of our short refresher/top up courses such as the one on Teaching English to Young Learners, Teaching Exam Classes. Please check the  CELT Athens  course chart to view a full list of these short 20-30 hour courses.
