Toronto CELTA Student Volunteers

How to be a student volunteer

EC Toronto is a teacher-training centre for the University of Cambridge's Certificate in English Language Teaching to Adults (CELTA)

As part of our teacher-training program, EC Toronto English school needs volunteer students to participate in free English lessons given by our student teachers in the CELTA program. CELTA free classes are provided at the pre-intermediate to upper intermediate levels. All lessons are carefully supervised by our teacher trainers.

Full Time classes are held Monday to Friday from 2:15 pm to 4:15 pm. Part Time classes are held Tuesday and Thursday from 6:15 pm to 8:15 pm.
