What I enjoyed most about the course was how supported I felt throughout the entire experience. Although CELTA was challenging and required a lot of dedication, I never felt expected to figure everything out on my own. The tutors were always approachable, encouraging, and willing to help whenever I needed it, and their feedback genuinely helped me grow from one teaching practice to the next.
