Recommended Reading for CELTA Courses
Practical English Usage
Michael Swan - Read an Interview with the Author
As I was preparing to take the TEFL course to teach abroad and inquiring about the different books that the school was suggesting, I was told simply by my son who is also a teacher and the statement was confirmed by both my instructors, "just buy Swan, it's the bible and it's all you need". Practical English Usage is just that. For whatever reason Michael Swan decided to write this book, we are forever grateful. - Margaret M. Frye 5/5

Learning Teaching
Jim Scrivener - Read an Interview with the Author
"Learning Teaching" has been one of the most successful guides to English since it was first published in 1994. Its no-nonsense approach has made it a superb teaching textbook for initial training courses, and also an essential handbook for practising ELT teachers. The third edition has been extensively revised and restructured to take recent developments in ELT into account and now includes a DVD featuring a full lesson being taught as well as demonstrations of practical teaching techniques.

A Concise Grammar for English Teachers
Tony Penston - Read an Interview with the Author
I used Tony Penston's book when I was learning how to teach English as a Foreign Language. I found it really useful then and I still carry it with me for all teaching assignments - and I regularly refer to it for some grammatical point or other. It's easy to find what you want and nice and concise! It gets straight to the point. Apparently he's even got a sense of humour too, rarely seen in a grammarian, and a relief to this user. This really good book is useful for all teaching levels. Great value too. I do not hesitate to recommend it to all English language teachers. - John Osman 5/5

About CELTA in Bari, Puglia, Italy
CELTA ‐ Cambridge English Language Assessment (ex Cambridge ESOL) Certificate in English Language Teaching to Adults, is the most widely recognised initial professional qualification accredited level 5 on the UK National Qualification Framework (NQF). The course provides initial training in TEFL, but will also suit those who are already in the profession but who have no formal or practical qualification.
Who recognises CELTA?
CELTA is accepted throughout the world by organisations which employ English Language teachers. The Cambridge CELTA is accredited level 5 on the UK National Qualifications Framework. Cambridge English Language Assessment also works with international ELT organisations to ensure the acceptance of CELTA globally.
Teaching Practice
Each candidate teaches for a total of six hours, working with classes at two levels of ability but three levels is normal with larger groups. When you change levels you also change tutor. Assessment is based on overall performance at the end of the six hours. You will teach for between 30 minutes to 1 hour with other candidates in a 1.5/2/2.5 hour lesson. The maximum number of students is 12 in any class. You will be observed by your tutor and the other candidates while you teach. This is followed by oral feedback with your tutor and the other candidates, and then written feedback from the tutor. Oral feedback is a time to be open to critical analysis of each lesson. Feedback is fundamental for your development, a moment to reflect on experience and learn but not always easy to do. Due to the fact that you teach with other candidates, group lesson planning is paramount. Although an hour is planned for this in your 9-5 day we recommend that you set aside time to plan with other candidates outside this time. As a rule of thumb, study time, beyond the timetabled 9-5 day, is at least half an hour for every hour on the timetable.
Observations
You are also required to observe 6 hours of professionals teaching, three of these are made available to you online and 3 are live at our centre. You may have to observe the live lessons outside the 9-5 timetabled day.
Assignments
Over the duration of the course you are required to complete 4 assessed assignments ranging in length between 750 – 1,000 words.
Attendance
Attendance of 100% is expected on the CELTA. As CELTA is a course-based award, absences may hinder a candidate’s chances of successful fulfilment of the assessment criteria.
