Celta courses in Barcelona, March

On the four-week intensive courses starting March 4, the tutors for one group will be (left to right) David and Roger, with Dragan and Gerard taking the other group.



We also have the four-month extensive course starting on March 2, with Liz, Nigel and Sophie the tutors there.

The part-time course, which we run twice a year, is two mornings a week, as opposed to five days a week on the intensive course.

There's just so much brilliant stuff on YouTube that it's tempting to suggest that you could literally do away with coursebooks entirely!

Over on our technology blog, we've got some great ideas on how to get the most language out of YouTube clips.

That's what you should be trying to do in the lessons you teach: exploit the minimum possible material for the maximum amount of language practice and learning.

Another site to bookmark: the brilliant film-english.com, which has a wonderful selection of great clips from YouTube and elsewhere, with a step-by-step lesson plan to accompany each.

Gerard (left), and Roger (right) are the course tutors for the course starting February 4th.

There are in fact currently still places on this course but note that normally you really want to apply at least eight weeks in advance for our CELTA courses. Our policy is to accept late applications if places remain.
