Overall, the CELTA course was generally good, and I found the teaching practice and input sessions valuable. However, I did experience some issues related to administration. The live sessions were not held as expected, and the stickies were not received on time. Additionally, one of the TP sessions was canceled, which was disappointing. Despite these challenges, I still gained a lot from the course.
Thank you
I am very glad that I was able to improve myself in a different context through experienced tutors and tutees from diverse backgrounds.
I felt that whenever I need something or I have questions, I can find an answer or reach out to the tutor. He responds promptly and correctly.
I recently completed the CELTA course at ATI and found it very beneficial. The instructors were knowledgeable and supportive, and the course structure was effective. The hands-on practice was particularly useful. Overall, a great experience that I’d recommend to others.
The course was amazing and I enjoyed the experience. The tutors were helpful and friendly. The facilities were good and the place was nice.
Lessons were so engaging and tutors’ assistance was like medicine. I loved the way they were teaching us, to encourage us not to get discouraged, to keep improving. To CELTA students Don’t get discouraged, keep learning and working on your weaknesses. With the help of your tutors and friends, you’ll be able to manage everything.
It has been a wonderful experience to work with such good tutors. They were really helpful and kind. The course itself has been designed to be very beneficial for the professional development of an English teacher.
It was a wonderful experience to get to know such kind people, and I will cherish the memories for the rest of my life. The opportunity to refresh my ELT knowledge will significantly impact my academic career.
The CELTA course has been an enriching and intensive experience, providing comprehensive training in teaching English to speakers of other languages. The combination of practical teaching practice, detailed feedback, and theoretical input sessions has significantly enhanced my teaching skills and understanding of effective pedagogical strategies. The rigorous schedule and high standards have been challenging but ultimately rewarding, leading to noticeable improvement in lesson planning, classroom management, and student engagement techniques. The supportive environment fostered by trainers and peers has also been invaluable, making this course a pivotal step in my professional development as an English language teacher.
The facilities and tutors were consistently helpful and approachable. Completing the course through Anatolia Training was an excellent opportunity
It would be great actually to see that tutors can perform all the tasks or actions they expect or require from us to set an example and ensure fairness.
While the online CELTA course provides flexibility and accessibility, some may find its effectiveness limited compared to traditional in-person courses. The absence of face-to-face interaction and real classroom experience can hinder practical skill development and peer collaboration. Additionally, the online format may present challenges in providing comprehensive feedback and observation opportunities.
Taking CELTA at ATI was a valuable experience for me; throughout the course, I received a lot more than my expectations. Thanks to my professional tutors and their unlimited support, I have developed a variety of new skills and gained confidence in my career.
It was a highly beneficial and fulfilling experience for me. Thanks to the tutors and their feedback, I felt that I improved and further expanded my knowledge.
It was a great experience for me as a person who is completely new to teaching. I learned a lot with this Celta course and I feel confident about teaching now.
I was very happy with the education and care I received throughout my CELTA course.
The Course has been very fruitful and fun thanks to our tutors.
On an arduous DELTA Module 3 journey, I could always rely on the highly qualified support of Simon, the ATI Director, and the centre tutors, who carefully guided our group of trainees through all the parts of the assignment, providing constructive feedback and valuable insights both in the Moodle platform and Zoom sessions. ATI offers a very attractive fee for high-level training. I definitely recommend the training centre.
Directions are given, knowledge levels are set, my mind is pushed to build a multi-layer cross-reference neural network of learning backrounds, methodological approaches, lesson shapes, learning and teaching styles, 'massively interconnected' with language systems and communicative skills. . After all, the DM1 exam is a tester of whether such a network has been built/exists in the candidate's brain. Thanks to the tutors, I now have a different quality of pedagogical thinking.
The course has been an intense experience for me. The majority of the input sessions were like a review of my BA courses, however, it was a very nice experience to get together with teachers from all around the country. The biggest contribution of this course to my teaching is TP sessions and the feedback I received from my tutors. Now, I am more aware of my strengths and weaknesses in my teaching.
I like how teaching how to teach was enhanced through different input sessions, and feedback I received one of the tutors contributed me a lot in my 6th years of teaching. I also think some things should be improved. There are serious disparities on the feedback we received from different two tutors related to "online" teaching. They had very different ideas when to use BORs, how to use them, how to arrange interaction patterns in online lessons etc. When two tutors tell you something so opposite to each other. It feels like it is not a standard but an opinion.However, we were obliged to follow their opinions and got unfair feedback when we didn't follow them. If something is really criteria to follow they should be standardized. Furthermore, I saw different tutors do not use Zoom effectively, for instance some of them shared their PPT on presenter view. I think if tutors worked and taught with technology, they should have known better how to teach online and they should be standardized certain things.
It was intense but fruitful. Special thanks to Mrs. Hasırcı and Mr. Dahman.
It was the most intense and hardest course I've ever taken; nevertheless, the exprerience was priceless.
It was a wonderful experience for me. It was too hard but also too effective. Thanks to our tutors, we learned how we can teach English effectively. Thank you for everything!
Hi, thanks a lot for the course. It contributed a lot.
It was a great learning experience I am happy that I have taken this course with ATI. Everything was planned very well and we received feedback instantly.
It was a great experience to be trained by the wonderful tutors. Thank you for everything.
It was nice in total,thank you very much for everthing but tutors ı have met with one (second half)my tutors just five minutes before my tp, she did not have any inputs, and we did not communicate enough, because she let us just before the lesson, since other collegues know and can communicate easily it was unfair, our first Tutor Miss Selen was great, she did an earlier meeting with us, always took us to the class at least 15 minutes early so we could talk and get our notes. And for students I wish you found us students, since nobody showed off, I created whats app group amd invite the students, so they just came for the sake of me, and sometimes they left early, it was unfair to my collegues again.
It was an intensive course as they suggested. However, now I am a confident teacher candidate thanks to our training!
I have had a fulfilling experience on the course. My tutors were excellent and really helpful throughout the process. I feel that I had a great chance to discover my strengths and weaknesses as an English teacher.
Before the course I did have expectations and I’m glad to say that the experience was beyond my expectations. The tutors were of tremendous help and were very supportive.
I would like to thank all the tutors for the informative sessions, valuable feedback and positive atmosphere.
It was an overall great experience. This course met all my expectations and I believe I've learned a lot and improved my teaching skills to some extent. I've made really good friends and met amazing tutors who have great and practical ideas about how to teach and what to teach. I can't wait to try what I've learned in my future classrooms!
It has been very useful for me to develop myself professionally. I learned a lot practically, thanks to both lessons and observations.
Hard but satisfying:)
Special thanks go to Simon, Suzan and Jason. They were so helpful all through the course.
It was a privilege for me to discover my strengths and weaknesses and to be able to work with such eminent tutors. It really made my way through being a better instructor, thanks.
I recommend all teachers willing to do CELTA course to do it in ATI for many reasons. The tutors are professional and supportive, the procedures were always clear and instructive. The feedback we've been given was insightful. It was a great experience!
It was an enriching course with all the modules, TPs, but especially with the feedback sessions and supporting of the tutors. I gained a lot. Of course it is a quite demanding course, you have to spare enough time to succeed it.
It was an engaging experience with our lovely supportive tutors and the great team work we had during the teaching practice helped me to gain the knowledge and know many information from them and learn from them. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone who would like to improve her/his teaching skills.
The way the certificate program was structured was very constructive. Imagine an environment where you can improve yourself and get constant feedback. It was very enjoyable to move myself forward in English Language Teaching in an atmosphere where teamwork is also at the forefront.
I've had a good experience with ATI and CELTA course in general. The lessons were quite productive. Thanks to ATI I've learned a lot from the units as well as assignments and TPs. Tutors' feedback were educative and to the point.
I 'm grateful for the course as it combined theory with practical guidance to explore a range of techniques and strategies in training English teachers. It gave me opportunity to look at teaching from different point of view. I'm happy to implement my new knowledge in sessions.
I had a wonderful experience, The course was refreshing, interactive and interesting. a good mixture of practical and theory with enough time to discuss issue. Overall the course is going to be very useful in my day to day job:) Really well done, congrats to everyone involved. For sure i will recommend it !!!
This was a good introductory course to teacher training. The course not only covered important topics like giving feedback and designing professional development sessions for teachers, the instructors used a wide variety of online learning tools to enhance the online training and equip the participants for their future training opportunities. The course was especially enjoyable and motivating due to other participants' consistent and timely interaction.
I really enjoyed the mixture of theory and practice this course had to offer. I really liked the fact that the course's topics were very relevant to my field of work and that although the course was exclusively online, we were indeed able to share our comments and ideas with one another. The amount of content we had to get through was also spread out quite evenly during the entire eight weeks.
I loved the Train the Trainer course, even if just online! It was a wonderful experience, I feel like we learned a lot and it was very nice to have something to look forward to every week!
It has been overall a smooth course thanks to clear instructions in every step and objectives shared at the beginning of every week both on the platform and via e-mail. It has also been practical because of its being online for the ones who have a tough schedule. It consists of beneficial and logically-ordered topics and sub-topics for trainers from teachers. It has given us a chance to learn as well as practise what we have learned. Our knowledge has been reinforced with the presentations offered parallel to what is done on the platform.
It was a fruitful course. Thank you!
It was an intense and challenging course for me, I have learnt wand practised a lot, thank zou for the clear schemes and ideas you gave us to use in our every day teaching!
Overall it was a really good experience for me. People were lovely and kind and I appreciate everyone who worked hard to help us all the time.
Over the course of 5 weeks, I learnt about so many things! The tutors Jennifer and Özlem were supportive every step of the way. If you take the intensive course, make sure you get other things out of the way, it's really challenging
It was rewarding to come together with colleagues and learn new things from professional trainers every single day of an entire month. It has definitely widened my knowledge, taught how to put together and teach a top-quality English lesson, and helped to detect developmental areas to work on. I just can't thank my tutors (Jason and Suzan) enough for their support and constant feedback.
A wonderful experience that changed my perspective on teaching. I was really lucky to have two amazing tutors ( Suzan and Jason) who supported me and provided me with the guidance I needed to complete the course. I am absolutely happy with how it turned out! I'm so glad that I had my CELTA in ATI. Thank you.
It was an amazing experience. I learnt a lot.
Professional tutors, rewarding experience, fruitful course, thanks for everything.
A very well conducted course. The tutors were highly professional and helped us in every possible way. The guidelines, schedule and pace all were highly commendable. I will definitely recommend ATI to my friends.
It was really great and rewarding. The tutors, Jason and Susan were really supportive, their feedback was very helpful and detailed. The input sessions were amazing, and I learned many things from every single moment of them. The center and the tutors were also really disciplined. Although it was demanding, it was worth it.
It was a great experience!
It was demanding but so inspiring
I have had a tremendous experience while taking Train the trainer course online with Anatolia Training Institute. Our precious course tutors, Simon Phipps and Suzan Özgelen were one of the best professional trainers whom I have ever met. Thier support and mentoring were valuable for me, because through online education we need more mentoring rather then teaching.
The Delta course has noticeably taken me a step further in both my teaching knowledge and practice. I also feel grateful for the invaluable support of my tutors.
I had the opportunity to refresh and impove my knowledge about teaching English appropriately by listening to my tutors and doing the activities they carried out. Also, I had to read a lot of books and articles, which improved my knowledge a lot. Everthing was so organized so we could see our improvement day by day.
It was a nice experience with such institute
The course content was excellent. My tutor's were very professional and helpful. I am more than pleased to have taken this course which has transformed my view of teaching.
It was a perfect experience with perfect guiding and tutors. I have learned lots of things related to teaching. Thank you.
It was a very fruitful course and helped me a lot to improve my profession. The tutors were really experienced, and always ready to help us.
It was the most inspiring course i have ever taken. I learned a lot in the sessions. Great thanks to my tutors for their help and effort.
It was such a great experience for me. GREAT! GREAT! GREAT!
It was great. So useful and helful. Tutors were perfect. For me it was difficult but so useful. I learned alot .
Our tutor was excellent: clear instructions, always available for support, very informed and experienced, and always professional. A fine course. Recommended.
1- I believe the course is excellently designed to teach how and why to teach English. 2- I participated in the online course, so my rating (5 stars) of the facilities and location is reflective of the convenience and use of online options.
My experience taking DELTA module 2 at the Anatolia Training Institute was certainly a positive one for many reasons. Firstly, I liked very much how everything was structured using specific deadlines and the way in which the course was organized into different sections using Moodle. Secondly, the interactive sessions every Saturday morning kept me focused and they also helped me to sharpen my skills as a teacher as they helped me to increase my knowledge and understanding of teaching English. I was really satisfied with these sessions because the groups were small, I felt comfortable, and I got to meet some interesting teachers from around the world. Thirdly, the tutors were very professional, friendly, and approachable and were excellent at sharing their knowledge and experience as well as giving constructive feedback on our assignments. The feedback was detailed and pointed out our strengths and weaknesses. I truly believe that it allowed me to reflect on my teaching habits and make adjustments where needed to improve my teaching overall. I knew I was in good hands after the first session, and I had made the right decision to register for DELTA Module 2 at this institution. Finally, this course really made me feel more confident as a teacher and it certainly pointed me in the right direction for continuous professional development. The peer observations as well as the input sessions and feedback on assignments encouraged me to try out new techniques in my classes. What made this so rewarding was the simple changes that I made which had such a huge impact on the motivational levels of my students. This course was certainly a positive learning experience for me.

The course made for a very valuable learning experience, the tutors' support and insight has been particularly notable for me.
I just want to thank you for every thing I've learnt during the course and supporting me with constructive feedback. I found the course really practical and I hope I can apply all the techniques in my real classes. I only have a suggestion, we covered unit 25: Language review after our TPs, but I found it really helpful for analyzing the LG, I wish we had it before our TPs.
As the course successfully balanced theory and practice, it helped me alıt to cover about being a teacher trainer. It also enabled me with a wide contact of colleagues all around the world in various contexts.
Both Suzan and Simon were great. The only criticism I would make would be the pair/group work tasks. It was difficult to meet deadlines when my task depended on others. It would be better if such a task is not on the last week. I get anxious if I cannot meet the deadline.
Everything was excellent-I just wish we had more sessions focusing on practical exam practice for ATI students as it was sometimes confusing to follow with ITI.
It was an enjoyable and educational course. Thank you for everything
Very fruitful
I truly enjoyed the course. It was an informative and beneficial course for me. I highly recommend this course to anyone interested in further professional development.
It was excellent and highly recommend
It was a good programme, thank you all
I feel fortunate to have this course with Anatolia Training Institute. Their professional team has always been helpful and they never hesitated to run the extra mile when needed.
This was such a rewarding experience! I have learnt so much and looking forward to starting my career as an English Language Teacher.
Best tutors ever! Simge, Jason and Metin😍 Supportive and helpful 🙏🏻
Tutors were amazing, very helpful and supportive. The course itself was very intensive and tiring but also fun as well.
It was a great learning experience. The tutors and trainees were always helpful and kind.
The course itself was really fruitful and I achieved many positive approaches through teaching English which placed me in the right path of my aim.
I enjoyed every moment and I think that it was a great experience.
I am grateful to have the chance to participate in an online course like this!
Had a very good experience
Thanks to Suzan's explanations, I was able to understand difficult topics.
The insights I have gained from my teachers, the observations I made, the lessons I took and the feedback I received were not only limited to professional knowledge, but also affected other aspects of my perspective on the profession and personal development. Indeed, this program has a very important place for me in my professional life. Thanks to these opportunities provided by Suzan and Simon, I have improved myself. The critical thinking I learned from my instructors allowed me to find solutions to problems very quickly. Even in my daily life, I realized that I have started to use the techniques I learned from DELTA. It was a professional program that I can recommend to anyone who wants to improve themselves. Thank you so much Simon and Susan for everything. They have become people who have two main roles in my life with what they have contributed to me professionally. It was a professional program that I can recommend to anyone who wants to improve themselves.
It was very challenging and demanding to keep up with the course work. However, it was rewarding from professional and personal standpoint. I have learned that there is more to discover about the teaching process. Never stop learning what you teach!
It was challenging. But I also felt the satisfaction of learning and improving as a teacher. Besides , I definitely recommend Module 2 before Module 1, it will help better with the exam.
As a first time teacher, it was a really steep learning curve. It turned out to be a lot more difficult and a lot more work than what I had anticipated - but it was well worth the effort. Thank you Muge and Simge for (gently) whipping me into shape!
It was a great experience to improve professionally and learn about new techniques that I will include in my lessons. The best part of the course were tutors, always very supportive and ready to help if needed.
I though the course was very helpful
