I'm looking to take a Celta course in San Diego from Cactus Tefl. Just wondering if anyone's heard of it, and if its a good program?

Thanks!

Cactus is a big program, but the CELTA program is independently monitored, and held to strict standards everywhere offered. I've heard CELTA described as "intense," but its unlike intense college courses where you can pull a couple of all nighters and take a multiple choice final. It requires being creative and constantly analyzing and critiquing your own teaching performances. Its a rather emotional experience and very difficult in that sense.
