Welcome to **CELTA Unlocked: Teach English Globally**!

This video is your comprehensive guide to the *Cambridge Intensive CELTA Course* and how it can launch your global teaching career. Join Rachid, a CELTA-certified English teacher with extensive classroom experience across various settings (kindergarten, primary, secondary), as he shares his personal journey and provides a realistic picture of the **CELTA experience**.

*What You Will Learn in This CELTA Introduction:*

*Global Recognition and Career:* Understand why CELTA is the preferred qualification by the British Council and many high-quality language centers worldwide. We explore how CELTA opens the door to competitive salaries, often ranging from 30 to 40 million Vietnam dong per month in markets like Vietnam.
*Essential Teaching Skills:* CELTA focuses on developing essential, transferable skills applicable to any teaching context, including adult learners, young learners, business English, and online tutoring. These skills include effective lesson planning, error correction, analyzing language, and building learner-centered lessons using techniques like ISQs and CCQs.
*Course Structure and Formats:* Learn about the entry requirements (at least 18, preferably 20+, and English at C1 level or higher) and the flexible formats available: the classical 4-week **full-time intensive course**, a part-time option (10 to 14 weeks), or the fully online format. All formats lead to the exact same certificate from Cambridge.
*The Intensive Experience:* The course includes over 120 contact hours, divided into input workshops, teaching practice with real learners, lesson planning support, written assignments, and observations of experienced teachers. Rashit shares what a typical intense day looks like, often involving morning input sessions and afternoon teaching practice.
*Key Content Units:* We break down the course content, covering who adult learners are and how to teach them effectively (Unit 1); building strong language awareness, including grammar, vocabulary, and phonology (Unit 2); teaching the four skills and integrated lessons (Unit 3); effective lesson planning and resource selection (Unit 4); and advanced classroom management, error correction, and professional development pathways (Unit 5).
*Assessment and Success:* Assessment is continuous and practical, based on teaching practice, planning, delivery, reflection, and short written assignments—there is no final exam. Grading ranges from Pass to Pass A (awarded to the top 10% of trainees globally).
*CELTA Tips:* Get essential tips for success, including reviewing basic grammar, reading methodology texts, staying highly organized, working closely with peers, and accepting feedback as your strongest tool for improvement. Be warned: the course is demanding, intense, and requires serious preparation.

*CELTA is the door* to the Delta qualification and building your long-term teaching career, whether through senior roles or even starting your own business.
