The course has made me a better teacher. It made me aware of how many gaps I have in my teaching skill and knowledge. Throughout the course, I was able to apply what I learnt in the weekly sessions/outside reading in the classroom. This was really satisfying as I was able to apply what I’d learnt and feel a sense of development as a teacher.

What's the difference between the Advanced Methodology and Module 1 courses?
Both courses are designed to increase your methodology knowledge to a DELTA level, pushing you to explore methodology topics deeply and think about how they apply to your context.
The DELTA Module 1 course does this while simultaneously introducing the tips, tricks and traps that will help you to successfully pass the Cambridge DELTA Module 1 exam, and giving you plenty of exam practice too.
This Advanced Methodology course allows you to focus on just improving your teaching, without thinking about an exam at the end of the course. It supports you to reflect on your teaching and put what you’re learning into practice with your learners straight away.
You then have the option to complete a 5-month DELTA Module 1 exam preparation course afterwards which focuses purely on the exam as we know you already have the requisite methodology knowledge. This short course is only available to those who have completed the Advanced Methodology course first, with application details provided at the end of the Advanced Methodology course.
[Take Your Time DELTA] has made me generally more self aware as a teacher, more conscious of the materials I use, how to exploit them and their limitations, and more aware of different approaches for teaching (not testing) the four language skills.

Having the time to read different sources each week and then discuss ideas with other trainees was fantastic. It’s all very flexible, and very doable! It has really opened my eyes and made me think a lot more about how I teach and how I can improve.
