CELTA experience at Izmir Economy University is great and highly recommended to those who want to learn and improve their professional life.
I am so thankful because of the opportunity to experience one of the best months in my life. I really liked the dormitory facilities and that helped me a lot in that breathtaking month. Also I want to genuinely thank all our tutors and the staff who tried to make us feel at home. I really do appreciate it.
It was such a wonderful journey with great people supporting us along the way. Maybe a little bit more introduction at the beginning of the course about how serious and demanding it is and mentioning the fact that you will have no life out of CELTA while having the course would be more eye-opening ; giving trainees a more realistic view of the course. However, tutors' passion and support was admirable without a shadow of doubt.
Everything was top-notch. I thoroughly enjoyed the input sessions and the teaching feedback I received from the tutors was invaluable.
This experience was challenging, encouraging and mesmerising.
An amazing experience with amazing tutors. I highly recommend it.
This is the best center to have CELTA in. My experience was amazing because of the supportive, dedicated, patient and helpful tutors who helped me throughout my CELTA journey. The initial application procedures were so smooth and the administration was very understanding and cooperative. When I got there I found that the center is equipped with whatever I needed to study and teach comfortably. It is also accessible throughout the week and you can stay there as late as you want. Moreover, there are various canteens conveniently placed around the campus and a library that contains a lot of resources. My overall experience was amazing and I would absolutely love to do it again; therefore, I wholeheartedly recommend this center as it has the perfect environment to take the CELTA course.
I enjoyed my experience over there not only the tutors were great and professional but also we could use the computers and rooms freely, like we were there until 10 pm.
Wonderful
It was an unforgetable experience with lots of lovely people from different places. We had the best tutors ever. Thank you for all!
It was a wonderful experience. Before CELTA, I thought it won't be easy to unlearn what I used to do in classes, but Aynur, Funda, Haldun, Bahar and Steve made it possible.
Such an amazing learning experience! All our tutors were amazing! Highly recommended ♡
Overall, it was a good experience. It gave me a chance to reflect on my shortcomings as a teacher. What I am not sure about is topics of input sessions. For instance, use of technology and giving dictation could have been given in first week. Aynur's teaching style, hadun's technological expertise and Bahar's welcoming gesture inspired me a lot. I wish to teach like Aynur.
Everything was great... the food, friendly staff,facilities,etc. Thank you for making life lasting memories.
It was an excellent experience..Every body from the university was kind..helpful and sympethetic. I am so happy of chosing this university for my CELTA.
It was the most beneficial experience ever . Having a chance to meet such knowledgeable and professional tutors made a huge difference in my life . I wish to come again and again for more courses .
Everything was perfect. Thank you for all you have done. I am really pleased to know such wonderful people.
It definitely was one of the best experiences of my life. Even though I was sleep deprived for a whole month, the tutors, trainees, and students made it all worth it. I learned so much from all of them, and I would go for another month of the course if I could. It gave me some of my most precious memories and lots of invaluable information. Thank you to everyone who was with me during the course!
All in all everything was satisfactory. Tutors were caring and supportive, especially Funda.
Being a CELTA trainee at IUE has been one of my most memorable, precious, invaluable experiences. It was an honour to be Steve, Haldun, Aynur, Funda and Bahar's student. I've learned a lot in a friendly, kind and supportive atmosphere.
Everything was beyond perfect especially the tutors. The friendly environment there, made CELTA easy, enjoyable and memorable. I miss everything there.
Outstanding tutors providing intense but unforgettable learning experience with their support, professional approach and amazing personalities.
It was great. Would even say that it was one of the best experiences of my life. The tutors and other students were amazing. But I think that the course could be 1 or 2 weeks longer. This would help to strengthen the learning experiences.
It was an excellent course and I learned a lot besides had most enjoyable days of my life.
A very informative, productive and beneficial experience that I will be able to use for the future. Also, a great opportunity to meet new people and make friends from different sides of the world. Overall, it was a month full of emotions, connection, and learning.
a wonderful experience which made us a different teachers from what we used to be.
A very challenging but rewarding course
It was one of the best courses I've ever attended.
It was the best ever experience of my life. Although the course was the toughest yet our tutors, staff and the course mates made it as easy as it could be.
Loved it. I can say that it was one of the best experiences of my life. The trainers, trainees and the students were amazing. The facilities offered by the centre made this intense course run smoothly and easily. I gained skills, and tips that will help me make a difference in my teaching career. I would 100% recommend doing the CELTA in Izmir University of Economics.
IUE is the best place where students are valued and respected. I wish to visit Izmir University of Economics again.
It was the best experience of my life. Celta tutors are all wonderful. Thanks a lot for all their effort, amazing input sessions and everything they have done. It was great to work with all of them.
Great learning experience. Intensive but rewarding. Made some great new friends. Everything was extremely professional and relevant.
You have got an excellent CELTA tutors team. Every tutor was very helpful. They always wanted to be with us when we had a problem. I love them. They are amazing.
The CELTA course is an experience unlike any other I have had. The work is intense, and the expectations are high. Yet I learned so much about the pedagogy of teaching English as a second language, and I was able to put what I learned into practice immediately. The feedback was incredibly helpful to my growth as a teacher, and the support I received from both tutors and peers made this program truly exemplary.
One day (Saturday) is not enough to teach the celta students how to teach especially if they are unexperienced. It should be at least two days.
It was a wonderful experience. I enjoyed the course and it was a great pleasure to work with my tutors. I found their feedback helpful and constructive for my development as an English teacher.
this course has helped me to realize and change some of my teaching habits in a better way..thanks to all my tutors
The course was as intense as it was educational. From theory to practice, it was an all around beneficial experience. During the entire course, the tutors' professionalism ensured a high quality education. But in the end it was their accommodating and warm guidance that made those weeks so enjoyable.
I was greatly inspired by all tutors' positive approach and genuine desire to support the students. This once in a life time experience helped me reflect on life in general rather than only the language itself.
It was a great experience... I used to think being a native English speaker was sufficient to teach English, but after taking this course I realize how wrong I was! Thanks to all who made it so enjoyable for me.
Very good.
I wish it could be a regular course that I can attend every summer, thats how much I enjoyed it..
It has been an amazing experience. I enjoyed the course, it helped me gain self-confidence. Tutors were very helpful and dedicated.
I enjoyed Teaching Practice (TP), I found the feedback extremely constructive and helpful in my development as a teacher. A great experience wiht very professional but at the same time friendly atmosphere. I strongly recommend!
I believe that it is a great way to learn how to teach, I never known were I stood without the Celta course. Overall, everyone was so kind and helpful and the course itself boosted my confidence in general not just in teaching. It was one of the best experiences of my life.
Overall, it was a great honour and pleasure to work with our tutors. I have learned many things thanks to them and I've opened a new page in my career. Our tutors were all amazing, very experienced and they are masters in ELT. They were always very available and willing to help us.
It was a great experience and I learned a lot. Great atmosphere, fantastic group. I highly recommend it.
I had the privilege of meeting the best teachers in Izmir. A big thank you to all of them :)
The course was run very professionally and was done in a way that made it fun and very interesting, the facilities were excellent.
One of the most rewarding and challenging experiences of my life- would highly recommend it.
It was a great opportunity to meet new people and benefit from experienced, helpful and very friendly tutors.
It was a wonderful learning experience.
Celta course at Izmir University of Economics was the best course I have ever attended. The tutors were really helpful, supportive, professional and very well prepared. I have learned a lot from them.
The course was a very rich, informative and innovative experience. The year that followed my holding of the CELTA , was the best year in my career. Even my students said that "Your teaching is more exciting and interesting". I came as the best English teacher for three different evaluations in my school that year. I feel much less stressed , more involved and innovative in teaching. I could finish the academic year with various strategies that attracted my students and let them enjoy the learning and teaching processes. Thanks to CELTA and its amazing tutors.
Most of the tutors in the course were very helpful.
