My teaching skills have improved drastically! I've never taught before and I didn't know anything about teaching, so to be where I am now is just amazing. I have gone from zero to confident in the classroom. It's a really great feeling!

Once you get inside the classroom you get a taste for it and you get lost in the moment. The school has been amazing and the facilities are really good. The staff are great - there's a really friendly vibe.

At first, I was quite nervous to be teaching on the first day, but we got so much support right away. Suddenly you’re a teacher and you get into the rhythm of lesson planning, teaching and feedback and at the end, it feels like I’m ready to keep going.

Why study with Bell?

Here are just a few reasons why we think Bell is the right school for you.

Track record of success

You will learn and observe from some of the best teachers and teacher trainers in the field. We are ranked in the top 2% of English language schools in the UK, as published in the EL Gazette 2019, which is based on our latest British Council inspection.

Our latest Independent School Inspectorate (ISI) report also rated our teaching as ‘excellent and results in high levels of student progress.’
Teaching expertise

Many of our teachers attend international seminars, workshops and conferences for their own professional development which ensures they stay at the fore on new trends and current challenges. Our teachers are invited to speak at international, industry-leading education events, including IATEFL UK.

Our CELTA and Delta team are all experts in the field and are highly-experienced as tutors or assessors, so they know exactly what skills you need to develop as a teacher.
Personal 1-to-1 feedback

We know that personal, direct feedback is critical to your growth and improvement.

We ensure you are aware of your personal successes and strengths, and can identify areas for further development so you have a clear path for growth and action moving forward. Whether you’re taking our course online or face-to-face, you will always receive personal 1-to-1 feedback from our tutorsl
Forefront of classroom research

We are continually innovating at Bell. With the support of our academic team, our teachers identify new trends or challenges to investigate through classroom research. Our findings inform new strategies in our everyday teaching.

We’re proud that our research is often published and recognised internationally, and ultimately we’re excited to share this fresh, new thinking with our teacher trainees at Bell.
Global teacher community

During our summer high season, our teacher trainees benefit from a high nationality mix at Bell. In the last year, we have welcomed teacher trainees from 47 different countries or territories.

You will have the opportunity to join and connect with a global community of teachers, learn from each other and share experiences and insights from different backgrounds and cultures.
You will also experience British culture and can share this with your students at home.
Ideal location

You will study in one of the most famous university cities in the world.

Our teacher training courses are intense and challenging, but as a result, are incredibly rewarding experiences. Bell Cambridge now boasts two on-campus residences with other residences within walking distance, which is ideal for maximising your time as CELTA or Delta students,

For Delta students, you can choose between visiting us in Cambridge or learning in your own country. Delta students can also choose to learn completely online.
