This course aims to prepare candidates who wish to take the Delta assessment by preparing Module by Module – one step at a time.  In order to take the exam, it is advised that you follow a course such as the one organised by our centre, or an integrated course which covers all three modules. The course syllabus and description of the examination and its content can be reviewed in the Cambridge Handbook for all modules which you can read online here or download and read offline. In any case, in order to follow a Module 2 course, rather than an integrated Delta course, at our centre, we require that you have taken and passed Module 1.

What you will cover in the Module One course

This module focuses on extending and developing candidates’ knowledge and understanding of teaching and learning English in a range of contexts.

The table below gives a brief summary of the content.

  • The effectiveness of these methodologies in different learning environments.
3. Language systems and learners’ linguistic problems

  • Teaching methodology choices in language systems.
4. Language skills and learners’ problems
  • Features of language skills (e.g. the subskills and strategies needed by learners)
  • Teaching methodology choices in language skills.
5. Knowledge of resources, materials and reference sources for language learning
  • The practical uses of a range of resources in a range of teaching contexts.
6. Key assessment concepts and terminology

Are you eligible to attend?

Before contacting us, please review the following questions to make sure you meet the criteria:

  • Do you have at least one year’s experience of teaching English?
  • Is your English good enough to teach at a range of levels? (Minimum CEFR Level C1–C2 or above.)
  • You will normally have an initial English language teaching qualification, such as CELTA.

We may still accept you on to a Delta course, if you can demonstrate that you would be likely to complete a course successfully, e.g. by giving evidence of previous successful study.

Where the course is delivered

The course is delivered fully online and input sessions take place in our state-of-the-art online live classroom where you can interact live with your tutor and fellow participants who may be in the same country as you or halfway across the world!!!
To participate in the webinars, you will need a fast connection, a headset and a webcam.  A good headset is very important for online learning as input cannot be processed if the sound quality is poor and you are struggling to follow conversations!  You will also have access to other platforms for resources and to communicate with assignment drafts, receive feedback and upload your work. To see more about what the online platforms we use can do and what they are intended for, please click on this link to watch a short video from an online presentation.

In that case, we take care of all the paperwork, entries. payment of exam fees and invigilation of the exam. We do not charge our candidates for this service but we may charge a small administration fee to anyone wishing to take their written exam at CELT as an external candidate.
Our international candidates usually prefer to take the exam in their own countyYou can sit for the written examination anywhere near your location where CELTA or Delta courses are offered – but as an external candidate in which case you will have to approach that institution on your own and make your own arrangements with them.
