CELTA at UOWD
In its efforts to encourage professionalism in the field of teaching English as an additional language, the Center of Language and Culture (CLC) at University of Wollongong in Dubai (UOWD) offers the CELTA (Certificate in English Language Teaching to Adults) as an initial teaching certificate which can lead to graduate level courses of study for people interested in teaching in this area, or upgrading their current English language teaching qualifications.
As an approved CELTA training centre, the CLC offers part-time and full-time CELTA courses each year which are conducted by experienced and qualified CELTA tutors. Trainees, under the professional guidance and instruction of their tutors, are ensured that on completion of the course they will be fully prepared to teach ESL/EFL to adults in a variety of learning contexts. Participation in and observation of classroom practice forms the basis of the course giving students the opportunity to see how theory and practice are inter-related.
On the successful completion of the CELTA course, a CELTA Certificate is awarded by the University of Cambridge ESOL Examinations which attests to the credibility of the qualification. CELTA is an internationally recognised teaching certificate providing travel and work opportunities for CELTA graduates anywhere in the world.
