Background

CELT – Centre for English Language Teaching was founded in 1989 and is based in Cardiff, the capital city of Wales (UK).

We were the first language school in Cardiff to be accredited by the British Council in 1993 and the first language institution in Wales to join ‘Quality English’, an association which chooses leading independent language schools in English-speaking countries to be part of its group.

Our Students Become Our Family

We think there are many good reasons to choose CELT for your English language study programme and our students seem to agree!

Studying abroad is hard for the majority of people. You need to find the right place with friendly people. These things and much more I found at CELT, a cute small school which is situated in the fairytale city of Cardiff. The school welcomed me with open arms with teachers who focused on my weaknesses. My stay here has given me support and confidence in using English, and I can recommend CELT 100%!

It was a great honour for me when I was given the opportunity to join one of the best English language academies in Cardiff. Studying at CELT helped me improve my English skills and expand my knowledge, and also gave me the opportunity to meet new students from different countries.
Everything was perfect from comfortable
atmosphere to friendly and welcoming staff.

I’m Jaime from Spain, I spent 4 weeks in CELT school and I was living at CELT residence. I enjoyed it a lot. It was a good experience for to know about other countries, other cultures, and the most important, learn a lot of English. It was a wonderful month for me. I would like to repeat it next year.

Studying at CELT was an opportunity to meet friendly and interesting students and teachers. A group that, as we say in Brazil, ‘lives in our hearts’. I would like to still be there enjoying the tours too! The trip to Llantwit Major was very rewarding. It will definitely be a place I return to. I also took a trip to Bannau Brycheiniog National Park. It was rewarding to be in contact with nature… and a fun moment of interaction with lots of conversations and laughter.

Everyone is kind at the school and I really enjoyed the fortnightly social events. My lessons were taught in a simple way, which made me feel happy every day. Cardiff is a peaceful place and the environment is great, offering a comfortable lifestyle.
