I have an English degree and practically no experience. I want to be a good teacher and money is always good. It would be fantastic if I could take a CELTA or TEFL course or some equivalent while teaching in Vietnam so that I could upgrade my qualifications. Is CELTA or TEFL training offered in Vietnam? How much will it cost me? What certification is the most respected in Vietnam?

RMIT International University Vietnam on 21 Pham Ngoc Thach, District 3, HCMC offers CELTA 4 times a year. They use to offer it 6 times a year but have just recently reduced it. At the moment they are not running a course but i suppose they will commence one in the near future. The teachers are highly qualified and have certified some excellent teachers. They only run full-time courses. At the moment they are the only ones offering CELTA in Vietnam. The cost 1400 USD.

Sorry... let me make a correction. There is a CELTA course offered in Hanoi at Language Link. It is offered at least 6 times a year and the cost is around 1000-1100 USD.

I took the CELTA at RMIT in Ho Chi Minh City in February and would highly recommend it. Inspirational tutors, good students, and a great campus to boot.

What about those of us that plan to go in Mid to late August in Vietnam and have no CELTA? I have two years of ESL experience in China plus a Bachelor Degree. I plan to be in Hanoi between Mid/late August to early September. is this a good time or bad time to go? When does school begin in Vietnam?

RMIT seems to be down to 3 times a year. Either they just updated their website or I was drunk last time I was there, but after the May course there's nothing until November.

I guess I can survive another 5 months or so of watching my bank balance climb Smile

FYI: A CELTA course begins May 17 2004. I don't know if it's full or whether you can still join.
