Well ive been through 3 weeks of CELTA and its been quite a ride. Intensive is not even the word for this course because it still does not prepeare you for what you will face.

 Im supposed to be planning for my lesson for tomorrow morning at 9:30am and it is now 22:14pm and im not even done with my lesson plan. I am completely blank and dreading doing my first One hour lesson in the Intermediate group again.

 I know they say it should get easier but it doesnt and the reason is because you have a tutor watching you and making notes now thats enough to unnerve the calmest of people.

 I wish someone sat me down and told me the truth about CELTA.

Dont get me wrong, its a great learning experience and a wonderful certificate im sure!! (Assuming i pass this friday!!) Its worth doing if you really really want doors opened for you worldwide and want to earn money asap.

 But!!! dont be fooled and dont be thinking its only a month and it should fly by because it doesnt, this is the longest month of my life!!

Well, i hope this doesnt put anyone off, i just think the truth should be told!!

 Im off to try and do my lesson plan and please my tutors and my students.

See you soon!!
