Good.

It's been challenging but most useful and inspiring experience, one of the best trainings I have taken in my more than twenty-year-long teaching career.

This course is definitely worth taking. It was very useful to observe the teachers. I learned a lot of new information and got new teaching skills. The trainers were qualified, supportive and knowledgeable. All the necessary facilities were available (the laptops, a big variety of books etc.) I would recommend this course for everyone. For me, it was the most valuable experience in my life. It's worth it.

Other than passing, I didn't have any real expectations regarding the course. Regardless, I was thrilled by the level of high-quality teaching/tutors, administrative support, and facilities. The combination of Tetiana (Tanya) & Amir as CELTA tutors was great: their knowledge, different yet complementary teaching styles, and levity provided an environment conducive to learning (they're both engaging, open, & have a sense of humor, but from different angles). And the CELTA teacher trainees (trainee tutors) were also readily available, supportive, and involved throughout the course. The facilities included a teachers room with a high-speed internet equipped computer, a printer/copier/scanner that CELTA students were not only welcome to use, but encouraged to do so. Both "teaching practice" rooms had high-speed internet equipped computers. There were also projectors, a "smart board," Wi-Fi, a small kitchen, a coffee & snack vending machine, etc. I think one of the biggest annoyances regarding I.H. Kyiv is that most of the doors are security card protected, so if you don't have a card, every time you want to enter a room, you have to get someone who works at I.H. to open it for you. It's not that big of a deal, but it did get annoying at times.

Learned alot and it was great value for the experience. Great class dynamic and a welcoming environment.
