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: the 10-week part-time course which is designed for people who work full-time during the day (the course is run on two evenings a week and on Saturdays); and now 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 completed the CELTA course from Teaching House London, fully online due to COVID-19. As other reviewers have said, the course is highly challenging and will consume you for four weeks. They aren’t joking when they say you can’t do anything else–including sleep (well). The course is mentally and physically exhausting but absolutely top-notch quality. The tutors are highly experienced and supportive. The resources were excellent. The orientation to online teaching via Zoom was dizzying, and we were teaching real students on day 2! If you are a native English speaker, the grammar lessons that we “get” to teach will be painful to plan because we don’t know what we are talking about because native speakers don’t learn grammar. The non-native speakers were much better equipped in this area. In fact, one of the great aspects to this course was the fact that native English speakers were in the minority in my cohort. We were a global group, and that was a highly positive aspect to the course. The tutors give advice on CVs and job-hunting, and that’s good enough. The content is rich and varied, and I appreciated how the tutors use the CELTA method to teach us the CELTA method. The course is mind-bending, and if you pass, you will have earned it.
