The CELTA course at International School Torquay was an amazing experience. The tutor's expertise and constructive feedback greatly contributed to my growth as a teacher. Jonjo Harrity April 2023
Torquay International School was established in 1972 and is the oldest EFL school in Torquay. In 2019 we were affiliated to International House.
IH Torquay offers a wide range of General English courses for adults and young learners. We also offer Discover Devon 50+ and ESP courses.
And as well as these language programmes we offer teacher training, specifically the CELTA. Stuart Gale runs the teacher training department. Stuart has extensive experience working as a Teacher Trainer, including on CELTA courses. He was Teacher Training Director at IH Bangkok and has worked at IH London on F2F and online courses for several years. He has worked for the British Council on Teacher Training projects all over the world.
The advantage of taking the CELTA at a busy language school is that all trainees will have the opportunity to see qualified teachers in action, and ask them what a life in teaching is like.
