CELTA at IH Izmir

A Thoughtfully Designed Course Structure

Our CELTA course at IH Izmir is built around a balanced and supportive structure that helps trainees succeed even during the most intensive weeks. You’ll benefit from:

  • 36 interactive input sessions – engaging, hands-on, and discovery-based sessions that reflect the communicative methods you’ll be expected to use.

  • 8 observed teaching practices – each followed by detailed, constructive feedback from experienced Cambridge-approved trainers.

  • Challenging but supportive assignments – designed to connect theory to practice and develop your reflective teaching skills.

  • Built-in catch-up time – the course timetable includes structured self-study time to help you manage assignments and lesson preparation without feeling overwhelmed.

Expert Tutors Who Care About Your Growth

At IH Izmir, the tutors aren’t just qualified — they’re energising, experienced, and supportive. They guide you through intense weeks of learning, offering clear feedback, encouragement, and the kind of mentoring that stays with you long after the course ends.
