On being accepted on for a place on either the CELTA or DELTA course you will be sent a pre-course booklet work. These booklets should be supplemented with some focused reading. Below you will find the books that are essential for the courses. We also include other books that we highly recommend for further reading. You can buy the books by clicking on the title, which will take you to the relevant page in the Amazon.co.uk site.A quick word about on-line shopping. Many people are reluctant to enter their credit card details over the Internet. Amazon uses a secure server which means that your details are encrypted so no-one else can see them. They also offer the reassurance that should any credit card fraud occur as a result of using their service they will fully reimburse you. If you are still not convinced you can still choose to pay by traditional payment methods such as by cheque or you can ring Amazon directly with your details.
