Teacher Development Course – why you should take it!

26th July 2018

It’s been an extremely lively start of the summer at Celtic English Academy. Recently we hosted a wonderful group of teachers from Spain, who joined us for the Teacher Development Course. We would like to congratulate them on successfully completing the teacher training programme and take this opportunity to share their thoughts on the course and the city.

The Teacher Development Course we offer at Celtic English Academy is aimed at qualified or trainee primary or secondary school teachers of English or any subject who wish to improve their own level of English and develop innovative methodology for using English in the classroom.

Here is what the teachers from Spain had to say about the teachers training: 

Montse, a primary school teacher

“My experience at Celtic English Academy was very good. My teachers were very lovely and funny. They always motivated us and encouraged to speak in order to learn lots of new things. I can’t wait to try out all the techniques and methods I have learnt here.”

Jose Antonio, a secondary school teacher

“Cardiff is a pleasant city and I enjoyed my time at the academy. I felt well treated and the atmosphere amongst the students was very good. I would recommend the course because you can learn new things and get a new perspective on teaching.”

Lucia, a primary school teacher

“The Teacher Development Course has prepared me to do my job better. It has provided me with new methodologies to work with my pupils and I have had the opportunity to get to know more English teachers. It was a fantastic experience.”

Maria de Carmen, a primary school teacher

“I loved Cardiff and I was very impressed with the organisation and efficiency of the academy. My favourite part of the course was seeing how teachers work in the UK.”

Cristina, a primary school teacher

“I am very happy with the course and I would take it again if I could. Also, Cardiff is a really nice and safe city. I enjoyed going to Cardiff Bay, the castle, arcades etc. The Academy is a good place to meet people from all over the world. The staff is kind and ready to give advice if you need it.”

During the Teacher Development course teachers not only have a chance to learn new methods and teaching techniques and visit the local schools but also explore the beautiful capital city of Wales. For more student and teacher voices, you can read Celtic English Academy testimonials from our students from all over the world.
