  • Am I able to prioritise CELTA over other commitments during this period? 
  • Have I considered what I may need to pause (work, social life, other study)? 
  • Do I have a plan if unexpected events (illness, family responsibilities) arise? 

Workload & Study Habits

  • Am I prepared for a demanding workload, including lesson planning, teaching, and written assignments? 
  • Can I meet multiple deadlines each week? 
  • Am I comfortable working independently outside of scheduled sessions? 
  • Do I have strategies to stay organised and manage my time effectively? 

Online Learning (for Online & Blended Courses)

  • Do I have a reliable computer, internet connection, webcam, and headset? 
  • Do I have a quiet, uninterrupted space for classes and teaching practice? 
  • Am I comfortable using online platforms (e.g. video conferencing, shared documents
