Distance DELTA Support

Many teachers in ELT are faced with a dilemma: they want to invest in their professional development by taking some form of higher teaching qualification but the option of taking 2-3 months of unpaid leave while they pursue a Diploma-level course is simply not viable.

If you are in this position, there is an alternative: the Distance DELTA.

The Distance DELTA is delivered as a part-time, distance-learning programme through a combination of online tasks, written assignments, examinations as well as locally organised input and teaching practice.

While this programme is flexible and attractive in many ways, it does depend on you being able to find someone in your local area who is eligble to act as your local tutor - and this can be easier said than done, as local tutors need to meet the very high standards of professional competence and pedagogic expertise which Cambridge ESOL demands.

Therefore is is very reassuring to know that the HAMBURG SCHOOL OF ENGLISH (and our sister school the BERLIN SCHOOL OF ENGLISH) has a large number of teacher trainers who are perfectly qualified to take on this important role in your professional development.

So if you are considering taking the Distance DELTA but are worried about where you can find a local tutor, look no further: we are waiting to help you take the next step in your professional development.  Just email us to arrange a no-strings-attached discussion.
