This book seems like more of a workbook than an actual textbook. It has many thought-provoking activities but it uses terminology that I can only assume is explained in greater detail in the actual course. For example, an explanation of the different student levels in terms of capabilities or teaching strategies. That being said, I have some teaching experience and knowledge so I could fill in some gaps and I found the activities to be thought-provoking and helpful. There is also a lot of good advice. So don't expect to get the course for $30 in this book, and don't expect it to be of much help as a beginning educator. Review: The book didn't help. - I paid for this book because I read a previous review that said if I didn't take good notes, this would help me remember the content of the celta course. That is false. The book address TEFL generalisms but does not help with what is really important to pass the CELTA course. You have to learn the CELTA terminology and structure by heart if you want to pass. This book doesn't address CCQs, ICQs, ECDB, and all the other torturous acronyms involved in this course (aside from a glossary in the back). This book is irrelevant to passing and reviewing the CELTA course. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | 0521692067 | | Best Sellers Rank | #3,303,926 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #3,958 in English as a Second Language Instruction #7,730 in Foreign Language Instruction (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 4.3 out of 5 stars (116) | | Dimensions | 7.44 x 0.49 x 9.69 inches | | Edition | Student | | ISBN-10 | 0521692067 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0521692069 | | Item Weight | 1.05 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 216 pages | | Publication date | August 10, 2007 | | Publisher | Cambridge University Press | ## Images ![The CELTA Course Trainee Book - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61Dgt7lPjtL.jpg) ![The CELTA Course Trainee Book - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61o01oGrs8L.jpg) ![The CELTA Course Trainee Book - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81Eo0iY5BQL.jpg) ![The CELTA Course Trainee Book - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/3126YKPUHBL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ They're not giving away the course *by K***R on February 11, 2016* If you, like me, are looking to get a head start on the CELTA course before it starts, this is not going to help you. This book seems like more of a workbook than an actual textbook. It has many thought-provoking activities but it uses terminology that I can only assume is explained in greater detail in the actual course. For example, an explanation of the different student levels in terms of capabilities or teaching strategies. That being said, I have some teaching experience and knowledge so I could fill in some gaps and I found the activities to be thought-provoking and helpful. There is also a lot of good advice. So don't expect to get the course for $30 in this book, and don't expect it to be of much help as a beginning educator. ### ⭐⭐ The book didn't help. *by J***I on July 8, 2011* I paid for this book because I read a previous review that said if I didn't take good notes, this would help me remember the content of the celta course. That is false. The book address TEFL generalisms but does not help with what is really important to pass the CELTA course. You have to learn the CELTA terminology and structure by heart if you want to pass. This book doesn't address CCQs, ICQs, ECDB, and all the other torturous acronyms involved in this course (aside from a glossary in the back). This book is irrelevant to passing and reviewing the CELTA course. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ a good review for topics from the course *by A***N on March 21, 2008* While I concentrated hard during my CELTA class, I didn't organize my notes well, so this book is a more convenient way of reviewing some of the topics. On the downside, is that since the book (like the course) really wants the students to explore the topic and discover the conclusions, it is not as good as I had hoped in terms of being a reference afterwards. ## Frequently Bought Together - The CELTA Course Trainee Book - MBT Learning Teaching Pk 3rd Ed --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tw/products/19110830-the-celta-course-trainee-book](https://www.desertcart.tw/products/19110830-the-celta-course-trainee-book) --- *Product available on Desertcart Taiwan* *Store origin: TW* *Last updated: 2026-05-20*
