Thank you for your warning although I am a great believe that you get out of something that you put in. Your beer drinking friend may have the same grade as you, and although it is clear that the qualification was all that mattered to him, I doubt he got a lot less knowledge than yourself. I will be happy with a pass and improving my language skills the rest is then down to me. I&#39;ll keep you informed.

I interviewed a german student who has come to England to improve her english in order to be able to get a job back home. She is a very quick learner, very keen to participate and use newly learned vocab, though not particularly keen on listening exercises. In her written work she has a tendency to use a lot of uneeded language- almost over extending her point. She has difficulty with using the correct tenses. she occasionally misses determiners and personal pronouns but not very often. There is also a lot of formal lexis- furthermore, usage, moreover. A couple of sentences that stand out are- &#39;Ive been...http://www.englishforums.com/English/CeltaApplicationFunctions-Question/klrbm/post.htmSun, 06 Sep 2009 10:40:56 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:889282kevrahHi, I&#39;m struggling with my CELTA application on functions, can anyone help?

Choose a center which has an experienced team of trainers. I would advise against taking a course in a new center or in one that only offers courses on an occasional basis using &quot;imported&quot; trainers. Courses in new centers always have teething troubles, as do courses run by trainers who are not used to working with each other. For example, less experienced trainers tend to be overly critical and may not be adept at giving you the kind of specific advice which you need.

I&#39;m looking at doing an intensive 4 week celta course. I&#39;ve read up on them online and everyone seems to say how stressful they are! I have done a degree etc, but i was just wondering are people making them out to be worse than they are? My friend has done one and says it was fine. I have a language A level so am ok on grammar and stuff. Is there anything you can do before hand to ease the pressure a bit? Does anyone regret doing theirs? I&#39;m just a bit concerned!

I will tell you a little about my situation and hopefully one of you lovely people can help me out. I have taught English in France to adults and students for the last year or so. I have a TEFL qualification other than that I come from an IT Background. My husband is French therefore I am legal to work in France (just mentioning that there are no problems work visa wise). I am in the process of trying to decide which course is more recognized in France by Training providers. So basically TESOL or CELTA. Which one?

Very possible, though at that level of qualification it&#39;s often a shitty and unstable job in the UK, which is why many newly CELTA-qualified teachers head off for sunny climes for a year or so and come back experienced and with a better choice of jobs.
