TEACHER TRAINING

CELTA - Written Assignments

Candidates complete 4 assignments: one focuses on adult learning, one on language analysis (grammar & pronunciation), one on designing tasks to develop students’ language skills (listening, reading, speaking, writing), and one on evaluating classroom teaching.

Assignments are set and submitted throughout the course, and are linked with input sessions as much as possible. Assignments are often marked by both course tutors, and they are graded as Pass or Fail. Very clear criteria and guidelines are given with the instructions when an assignment is set.

The word count for each assignment is approximately 1,000 words. Answers in note form are possible for one assignment but the others need to be completed in a semi-formal essay or report style.
