Description
Cambridge Assessment English approved the opening of Teaching House in 2007. With the aim to expand quality English-language teacher training in the United States, Teaching House has opened over 15 center locations and trained over 3,000 new teachers. Teaching House is now the largest provider of Cambridge CELTA courses in the world.
Ensuring the high standards of education that are set by Cambridge English, all Teaching House CELTA courses have a maximum of only 6 trainees working with each trainer. To fulfill this trainer/trainee ratio, the Teaching House staff include over 20 Cambridge English-approved teacher trainers as well as a strong support team based at our headquarters in New York.
In addition to the standard four-week CELTA course format, Teaching House has developed two new formats:
- a 10-week part-time course run on two evenings a week and on Saturdays;
- a part-time blended course over 14 weeks allowing people to work online during the week and do teaching practice on Saturdays.
We also offer in the USA a two week compressed teaching practice option with online content, for those who are only able to take two weeks for their teaching practice component.

I had heard that the CELTA course given by Teaching House gave excellent training and was intense. I found both to be true. The input sessions (lectures) were very informative and practical–they were directly applicable to what you needed to do to prepare and and to deliver your teaching practice lessons, which for me were the most valuable part of the course. Preparing and delivering these lessons took a lot of time and effort and for me it was the main reason the course was intense and time-consuming. But the teaching practice was also the most valuable part of the course in getting me to learn the material and improve my teaching skills. I learned so much from the feedback I received on my teaching both from the tutor and my colleagues. I found my colleagues to be very supportive and fun to work with–definitely another major plus of the course. All of the tutors were very supportive–they want you to succeed in the course. They were very good at guiding you and very responsive to questions emailed outside of class hours. One thing that could have made the course less intense would have been to spread the course content over 5 weeks instead of 4. But overall I am very happy that I took the course, despite the intensity and how much work it ended up being.
