Contemplating doing a 15 week ONLINE CELTA course.
Posted: 08 Feb 2013, 14:25
Just want to get some one's advice. There is an online version of the CELTA course in which only 1 week is face to face (in which I will have to travel to Dublin to do). The course is 15 weeks which suits me alot because it's a well paced course.
However, a friend of mine says he thinks that the clear advantage of doing a face to face course is that you can practice within a group from your class. He thinks that the Online course sounds like a rip off. He also said that when it comes to getting interviews from employers, employers might prefere if you did a full face-to-face course.
Im suprised to find that there is no online forums that have discussed the ONLINE CELTA course.
Here is a link to the ONLINE CELTA course :

If anyone has done the ONLINE CELTA course, can they please tell me how they find it and if they regret not doing the face to face course instead.
Im afraid to go about a 4 week intensive CELTA course because I have learning difficulties due to being diagnosed with dyspraxia and dyslexia (although I only have minor dyslexia).
Im also considering doing a 7 week face to face CELTA course, which is decribed as 'semi-intensive' from my local university. If anyone has done a 7 week version of the course, can they tell me how they found it.
Thanks for your help anyway.
