It prepares you for the work involved and helps you understand how to plan good lessons. Many teachers I know without a CELTA are in much worse positions when they start a job. Most I know never really become good teachers.

Cambridge says Yes. Scott Thornbury used to write that PPP was crap. But ''money talks '' and now he''s flipped and it''s acceptable again as he endorses this style in his CELTA books. MONOP0LY people - not the game! One organization stating what they think and what you must pay for before you can teach - restrictive practices too! Do we live in a free society or do we really need those 6 hours? Why only six - The Prisoner influence ? Regardless of content its a real restriction on our freedom of teaching.

Not really. Aside from refreshing knowledge of grammar, it doesn''t really apply to what happens in a classroom.
