CELTA! better known as not sleeping for a month

I know I've been lacking in this here blog lately, and it's all because of the CELTA. I spent the better part of a month learning the pedagogy and methodology of teaching English as a foreign language without needing to know the language of the learners. It is a pretty amazing approach, that had I learned this way, I think I would speak Spanish a whole lot better than I do now. With that said, my group of 18, well 17 after one dropped, spent countless hours cramming information, planning lessons, teaching, observing teachers, analyzing learning difficulties and plenty of other fun teaching related activities.








The group was spectacular! 13 Men and 4 Women ended up completing the course, and grew to be a close knit cohort. Here are a few pictures of the students and teachers from the last day.
