Centre for English Language Training

Grace and I are the owners and directors of CELT – Centre for English Language and have been running the language school since 1989. We are both qualified EFL teachers and have many years’ experience teaching English abroad and in the UK.

Originally from San Francisco, USA, Grace is our Director and started her teaching career in Italy. I am the Principal of the school and taught in Spain, France, and La Réunion (Indian Ocean) before returning to Cardiff to teach English at Cardiff University.

Cardiff is my hometown and, after returning here, I realised the huge potential of the city as a wonderful destination for foreign students to come and learn English. That’s why we created our language school!

As teachers, we care passionately about our students’ learning experience and do everything we can to ensure that students benefit fully from their time with us.

CELT’s Mission Statement

• We aim to offer the best possible English language programmes with friendly and qualified teachers in a positive, learner-centred environment.

• To look after our students within a caring and supportive setting, giving them the best experience in every aspect of their time with us in Cardiff.

• And to encourage our students to learn, do well, and inspire others.
