The Distance Delta Course is a unique eight-month English teaching diploma developed by International House London and the British Council. It is ideal for experienced, practicing second language English teachers who want to carry on working while studying for a further English teaching certificate.
The Distance Delta Course is a good alternative to intensive/part-time face-to-face Delta courses because you can control your own study timetable. You need to dedicate a minimum of 10-15 hours per week to the Delta course over an eight month period.
The Distance Delta Course allows you to study while still working in your school or institution. The eight month programme involves a two week Orientation Course to introduce you to the main themes and approaches of the distance component, and to the other students. The distance component involves the production of written work and the assessment of your practical teaching skills.

Since its creation, International House has been a pioneering force in the field of teacher training, offering the first qualification for Teachers of English as a Foreign Language during a time when the industry was just developing.
International House London now trains hundreds of new and experienced language teachers every year, finding employment for many of them in the affiliated schools abroad.
For teachers whose first language is not English, we’ve developed a range of special teacher training courses, designed to develop language and teaching skills. Our IH Certificate in TESOL, created specially for overseas teachers, is run along similar lines as the CELTA with workshops, seminars and teaching practice.
At International House London, we focus on communication and speaking, with student to student interaction being used rather than a more traditional lecturing approach. This makes our English and Modern Language courses both exciting and rewarding, with progress being made very quickly.
