Description
Stafford House has been delivering language related courses for over 60 years. With schools in the UK, the US and Canada, we have a reputation for quality, excellent customer service, and attention to detail, and we pride ourselves on being able to meet the individual needs of students and trainees.
Our Central London school offers the CELTA course, which aims to equip trainees with all the fundamental skills needed to go straight into the classroom and teach English as a foreign or second language, either in the UK or overseas.
School facilities include a dedicated computer and resource room for trainees, including a fully stocked library of teacher training resources. There is also free Wi-Fi throughout, a café, and a canteen serving breakfast, lunch and dinner. In addition to this, we have dedicated, professional and passionate trainers, with many years of industry experience.
As part of Cambridge Education Group, which employs 400 English language teachers a year in the UK alone, we are able to offer job opportunities for promising graduates in both summer schools and all year round schools. We also offer guidance on finding jobs and connections with schools in Spain and Italy.
We offer both full time and part time courses and keep group sizes to a maximum of 15.
Stafford House International is an excellent centre to study in. The tutors were all experienced and well informed as well as being very supportive and available to address questions and concerns throughout the day (including during breaks). Additionally, feedback was always fairly and constructively given. Also the centre itself is very well resourced with many course books, free wifi, computers and smart boards in every classroom and a few printers. However, a few small complaints are that the centre IT technology takes awhile to get used to or can be difficult to use. Thus, at times it hinder rather than helped and precious time was lost in the process. This was not helped by the CELTA coordinator going on vacation after the second day of the course. This meant that it was unclear who to address technological problems or concerns with.
