TESOL Training Session in Kobe Japan
TESOL Training Session in Kobe Japan

The Cambridge CELT-S is designed to supply classroom skills and teaching confidence for English teachers working in secondary education (ages 11-18). The program is specifically designed for teachers who speak English as a second language.

The program aims to develop core professional competencies and improve classroom performance by developing and extending teachers’ knowledge and skills; focusing on the strategies, methods and materials teachers need to teach language effectively; helping teachers manage and motivate large classes; and providing teachers with strategies to ensure that all learners achieve their potential. The blended and online programs include either face to face or webinar tuition and reinforcement of skills through online study. Participants can work at their own pace through the online modules and put theory into practice through the practical observations.
