Flexi CELTA

Begin your TEFL career with a flexible online CELTA course


The Cambridge CELTA online course is a learning programme that enables you to complete your CELTA qualification completely online.

You can now complete your teacher training qualification online and in a way that suits your lifestyle. The Online Flexi CELTA allows you to fit your teacher training course around existing commitments as you train for an exciting new career.

Collaborative online study means that trainees complete assignments, online tasks and units and have the advantage of flexibility, choosing where and when it suits them to carry out the work. Community work, including forums and live rooms, is also part of the course.

This course can be completed either fully online or as a Blended Flexi CELTA option where you study online and complete the Teaching Practice in one of our centres. There is no difference in the certification on whether you choose to do online or Blended, it's just a different way of completing your Teaching Practice.

Trainee Testimonials

"The CELTA is so much more than I thought it would be and I would go so far as to say it has changed my life.

Bold words and I didn’t expect to say that when I embarked on this but I believe it to be true.

Many, many thanks to all."

Alison, Fast Track Online CELTA

"I think the enjoyable nature of it came from the dedication and hard work of the tutors.

They were always on hand to help us whenever we had any issues and their knowledge was extraordinary.

I can safely say that I’ve learned far more in these 4 weeks than I did in my entire 4-year university experience."

Ilya, Fast Track Online CELTA

"The course has exceeded all my expectations. The input sessions have been incredible – a massive learning experience.

The organisation is superb. The challenge has been superb. I will absolutely recommend this training to anyone thinking about developing themselves."

“I am interested in teacher training in terms of leading teachers through CELTA. I have also had the opportunity to train CELTA trainers which is very rewarding. I enjoy getting feedback from trainees and hearing from successful CELTA graduates about how their EFL careers have developed after CELTA. It is great to hear about what they are doing now and the range of opportunities CELTA has given them.”
