Well! Final words! Wow! I can’t believe we made it. That is the first idea which comes into my mind when I try to summarize the course. And it also represents how challenging it was. In every possible way. So many angles to look from trying to conclude.
Most importantly what I have learnt, no, I just have started to learn, is teaching itself. I got installed the systematic, strategic, critical thinking into my point of view while planning the lesson. What are the aims and how most effectively to reach them. What tools to use, how to use them and that everything is in methods. Which I was provided at it the highest. All now I need to do is work on them, train myself in order to train my learners.
I have been provided with enormous amount of information, sources and ideas. Which mainly worked as the directions for further improvement. Some of them, as frameworks, course books, time management skills, ICQ’s, CCQ’s etc. I’ll start using straight away, others such as certain areas of expertizing English itself, need to be developed. And it’s definitely worth mentioning that not only I have started working with bigger amount of students, but doing all online was another additional value which I haven’t planned. Awesome! CELTA provided it. And the people I have met on this course. Great, inspiring bunch of guys. All passionate about teaching. So, I have entered the inner circles and have started my network. Undeniable value.
Overall, it has been a privilege to be Cambridge CELTA trainee.
