Our Trainees
 |
I took the CELTA at BKC-IH in the summer of 2003. My overall impression of the course was very good. Our tutors were Sue Collins and Bill McCann, both native Australians and highly-trained. The course was very intensive, at times even overwhelming, but was challenging in all the right ways. Learning all you need to know about your native language in one month is daunting at the very least. However, I feel that we were given quality training from the interactive "lectures" and the many opportunities to develop experience in an actual classroom with real students. The many written assignments were my biggest stress, but were worthwhile in the end. Generally, I had a positive experience with all aspects of the process. All of the Russian staff are pleasant and helpful. The teacher-training center took care of my visa and provided all of the trainees with acceptable accomodations. I highly recommend this course to future teachers, especially if you have any desire to teach in Russia.
