CELTA (Certificate in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) is a globally recognised, Cambridge-accredited Level 5 qualification. It’s the most requested certification in English language teaching.
Plenty of online courses promise a TEFL certificate in 60 hours but the qualification you choose matters and employers know the difference.
CELTA requires 120 hours of contact time, six hours of assessed teaching practice with real students, and four written assignments. It’s intensive because there are many skills to learn to get you classroom-ready.
The result: CELTA graduates are hireable from day one. Schools trust the qualification because they know what it covers.
Three out of four English language teaching jobs require a CELTA qualification* making this course the gold standard if you want a job in TEFL. The CELTA (Certificate in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) is the world’s most widely-recognised qualification for teaching English.
It is highly regarded globally by organisations which employ English language teachers. With a CELTA you can start a life-changing career helping students, and open the door to a world of possibilities.
It is a qualification from Cambridge Assessment English, which is part of the University of Cambridge.

Delivered at an IH school over four to five weeks full-time, or part-time over several months. You attend in person, teach real students in a classroom, and work alongside a cohort of other trainees.
Same qualification. Same curriculum. Same six hours of assessed teaching practice completed online with real students. You join tutors and fellow trainees live in your online classroom, from anywhere in the world, in a time zone that works for you.
Can’t take four weeks off? The part-time options runs over several months, face-to-face or online. It’s designed for people who are working, studying, or have other commitments.
Choose the full-time CELTA schedule to get qualified in four to five weeks. Complete your input sessions, assignments and teaching practice and be ready to teach.

You’ll receive a certificate from Cambridge Assessment English. From there, you can apply to teach at IH schools in more than 45 countries, or at thousands of other language schools worldwide that require CELTA.
CELTA also opens the door to further qualifications. Teachers who want to specialise or move into academic management typically use it as the foundation for DELTA or other advanced training.
International House developed the original version of this course in 1962. It was the first practical teacher training programme of its kind, built around observed teaching practice and reflective learning, not just theory.
When you train with IH, you join a global network. IH alumni teach, manage schools, and run training centres across more than 45 countries. That network is available to you from the day you graduate.

IH Palermo London School26 Feb 2027 - 29 May 2027100% Online (Part-time)13 weeks OnlineTEFL stands for Teaching English as a Foreign Language. It is a broad term covering qualifications, jobs, and the industry as a whole. When people talk about a TEFL qualification, they mean a course that trains you to teach English, but not all TEFL courses are equal.
Some are rigorous, externally accredited programmes with real teaching practice and proper assessment. Others are short online courses with little preparation and even less employer recognition.
CELTA is the gold standard. Accredited by Cambridge Assessment English, it requires a minimum of 120 hours of training and 6 hours of observed teaching practice with real students. Most reputable schools, including all IH schools, require CELTA or equivalent when hiring. If you are serious about a career in ELT, CELTA is where to start.
Bydgoszcz’s architecture is beautiful and eye-catching with magnificent historical buildings. We have a theatre, philharmonic, opera and cinemas.
At IH Cairo the staff and teachers are very helpful and knowledgeable. They assist students through each stage of the program. I love coming to IH Cairo because I always feel welcomed and excited for class.
I have to admit that my expectations before coming to IH Cairo were quite low. I was totally shocked by the quality of the organization and the preparation of the teachers. I was completely surprised at the increased recognition of IH Cairo among international students.
It was great to stay in the Akcent IH Prague accommodation. Living with other people form the course meant we could help each other with lesson plans in the evenings but we were also able to hang out together socially.
I was thoroughly engaged and highly stimulated intellectually by this course. Everything about the course, from the tutors to the facilities, was top-notch. I left with a feeling of immense satisfaction due to the challenges faced and overcome while on the course. I left also with knowledge that will act as a steadfast foundation for my future career. The course has set me up on track to pursue a rewarding and valuable career by giving me the toolkit that I will need to do this. By taking this course I have also discovered the path that I will need to stay on if I wish to make my dream of becoming a good teacher a reality.
I really appreciate what I learned from all the trainers and peers on the course. I did both the CELTA course and CYLT course at IH Bangkok, after which I couldn’t even believe myself for being professional in teaching in almost all aspects. Once I step into the classroom, I know what I should do with my lesson materials, I aim to achieve in my lesson, I can do better for next lessons. Thanks to all the tutors who helped us and gave all their best during the courses.
The CELTA course I took over the summer was run online, and being online did not take away from the excellence of the course. The course encourages teachers to teach real students in a student centred way, thus making the experience very authentic. All in all, it is very intense but well worth the money spent.
It was both challenging and informative. The course gave me the opportunity to learn many new ideas and strategies, to develop and improve my teaching, and connect with wonderful teachers from around the world.
As a CELTA graduate, I can tell you that the course at IH Rome Accademia Britannica is the best professional decision that you could make. It will fundamentally change your approach to the classroom forever. You will encounter supportive tutors and experienced mentors that will help you unlock all your teaching potential. Together with other eager trainees you will learn how to manage the classroom successfully, engage with students effectively and to take with you all that you need.
I simply loved the CELTA Online with IH Rome and my great and professional tutors, Flo and Chris: they were supportive, providing constructive, accurate and punctual feedback for each of our activities. It was a challenging and yet unforgettable experience.
It was the best experience of my life. The course was amazing , I learned a lot of new things and the teachers offered me all their support. Thank you!
