CELTA trainers of the world, Unite!

Taken from the CELTA Trainers / APTT blog:

“[W]ho” is the wrong pronoun. A CELTA center is not a person

 

We know that the market rate for an ACT was £2000 for nearly two decades. The standard rate is rapidly becoming €2000.<br />Here&#8217;s how to help drive pay and conditions up rather than down.<br />Please do not work for below £1800/€2000 except in special circumstances (i.e. a hard-up school, a developing country.) <br />Insist that schools posting vacancies on the Cambridge ESOL mailing list post the salary too.<br />Question schools that ask you to pay your own flight! (Some US schools see this as standard now.) Consider turning down these positions - and let the school know the reason why.<br />‘

Schools, continue to pay these dilettantes peanuts, horse dung, or whatever you can get away with. They’re not worth a single dime.
