Please note
A degree is not an entry requirement for CELTA, but please be aware that without a degree it will be more difficult to find employment teaching English as a Foreign Language in the UK or abroad.
The CELTA is designed for people with little or no English language teaching experience (but those with experience can be considered).

Full description
If you're considering applying for a degree course at Anglia Ruskin (or another university) and want to improve your English language skills, our English for University Studies course is for you. We also welcome students who would like to take this course as a standalone English programme, for your own personal development. It's a great chance to study in the centre of Cambridge.
During the course, you'll develop your English language skills in reading, writing, speaking and listening. There is also an introduction to academic skills including note taking, formal written assignments, and seminar discussion. At the end of this course you can take the IELTS exam, so there are classes on IELTS preparation, too.
Classes usually consist of lecture-based lessons and one-to-one tutorials. Tutorials are a good opportunity to talk about your progress, and discuss any additional support you might need. Our students also carry out independent study, so you'll have full access to our multi-media language centre.
One of the features of our English for University Studies course is its social programme. This is a great chance to join a number of social events, learn about British culture, and practice your English in a friendly, informal environment.
