CELTA & Delta with International House Istanbul – In Partnership with Leading Universities !

International House Istanbul delivers Cambridge CELTA and Delta programmes through partnerships with Özyeğin University and Istanbul Kent University, bringing internationally recognised teacher education together with the academic environment of established universities in Istanbul.

With Özyeğin University on the Asian side and Istanbul Kent University on the European side, our candidates can benefit from high-quality university facilities and choose a location that best suits them — while receiving the same International House standard of teacher training.

Whether you are beginning your English language teaching career with the CELTA or taking the next step in your professional development with the Delta, our programmes combine internationally recognised qualifications, expert teacher training and the experience of studying within a university environment.

Two Universities. Two Sides of Istanbul. One International Standard.

At Özyeğin University in Çekmeköy, candidates experience a modern, world-class campus on Istanbul’s Asian side, combining professional teacher training with the atmosphere and facilities of a contemporary university campus.

At Istanbul Kent University in Taksim, our European-side location places CELTA and Delta training right in the heart of Istanbul, offering excellent accessibility and the convenience of one of the city’s most central locations.

Together, these partnerships enable International House Istanbul to provide university-based teacher training on both sides of Istanbul, giving candidates the flexibility to choose between Çekmeköy on the Asian side and Taksim on the European side, while benefiting from the same International House standards of teacher education.
