DELTA is a qualification from Cambridge English Assessment, which is part of the University of Cambridge.

You need at least one year’s experience to make the most of it, although many people take it after a number of year's experience in the classroom. If you are planning to progress into academic management a DELTA is a very good idea. In some schools it will be a prerequisite.

There are three modules, which you can take in any order.

DELTA Module 2

DELTA Module 2 is “Developing Professional Practice”.  It is assessed with a portfolio of coursework and assessed lesson observations. Topics covered are:

  • The learner and learning context
  • Preparing to teach
  • Using resources and materials in the classroom
  • Managing and supporting learning
  • Evaluating lesson planning
  • Observing lessons
  • Professional development

The other modules

Module 1 is “Understanding Language, Methodology and Resources for Teaching”. This is the examined module, and is primarily theoretical. 

Module 3 is independent research on either an ELT specialism or management.  It is assessed by a written dissertation.
