EFL Teacher training courses in Torbay, England

LAL Torbay's EFL teacher training courses, in Paignton, Devon, for people wanting to teach English as a second language to non-native speakers. We offer Cambridge Certificate in English Language Teaching to Adults (CELTA) and Diploma in English Language Teaching to Adults (DELTA) courses, plus a refresher course for overseas teachers who want to improve their English.

International Teachers: LAL Torbay has developed a refresher course aimed at qualified English language teachers whose first language is not English and whose job it is to teach English to Primary, Secondary and Tertiary students. The general course structure will provide teachers on the course with the opportunity to observe our own teachers and take part in peer teaching. In this way, feedback and information exchange sessions can be incorporated into the syllabus.
CELTA: If you want to learn to teach English as a second language, the Cambridge Certificate in English Language Teaching to Adults (CELTA) is the most widely accepted initial qualification required by all British Council and English UK recognised schools in the UK and by most reputable employers abroad.
DELTA: The Cambridge Diploma in English Language Teaching to Adults is the most widely accepted qualification required by all British Council and English UK recognised schools in the UK and by most reputable employers abroad. This course deals with modules 1 & 2 of the DELTA and integrates classroom practice with understanding of language systems and learning theories, and combines classroom training with study of theory. Assessment is through Assignments and a final exam.

The CELTA course was one of the best decisions I have ever made. It provided me with the skills to get started in the classroom. I went on to do the DELTA as well, which deepened my awareness of how learning happens. I look forward to an interesting career in ELT.
