Teachers
Having a recognised diploma-level qualification in teaching English to speakers of other languages is a requirement for their permanent teachers. In addition to this, they will also have extensive teaching experience in a variety of professional areas. It is a minimum requirement that teachers have a recognised English language teaching qualification i.e Cambridge CELTA, Trinity College TESOL Certificate or equivalent. Most teachers have a degree level qualification.

💼 What the programme involves

This school in Bournemouth is an approved Training Centre for the University of Cambridge Certificate in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (CELTA). Full-time and part-time CELTA courses are available.

The Centre’s Training Course for the Cambridge Certificate in CELTA provides pre-service training for those who wish to enter the profession and have had little or no formal training or experience. With its careful selection process, Anglo-Continental works hard to maintain its CELTA pass rate of 98%. For those not yet sure whether English language teaching is for them, a free TEFL Taster Day can also help with decision-making, providing a glimpse of a teacher‘s life in a busy language school.
