Teach English as a Career
Be certified by University of Cambridge in 4 weeks, get a job outside the 9-to-5 and live a fulfilling life empowering others.
You know the dreaded routine.
It’s 7am. Your alarm starts ringing and you reach over to snooze it. 5 more mins, you told yourself. But 5 mins became 10, 15, 20... as the days go by. Whether it’s getting out of bed to continue on your job search, to get to school or work, are you only looking forward to the end of the day?
It doesn’t have to be like this.
Whether you’re looking for a career change, are an expat in Singapore or an undergraduate/recent graduate unsure of which career path to take, this one’s for you.
What if you had the opportunity to start a teaching career—with no prior experience required whatsoever—which allows you to work and travel at the same time, have flexible time, gives you international exposure and best of all, be able to impact someone’s life?
You see, for the past 9 years, CA International College has trained over 700 people like yourself, to take them from being lost and clueless about what to do to eventually changing people’s lives by teaching English. By empowering you to unleash your inner passion for teaching, we show you that it’s possible to lead a meaningful time and earn an income in any part of the world with a CELTA (Certificate in English Language Teaching to Adults) qualification.
Why Take CELTA?
Gain Flexibility
By completing the CELTA course, you’ll be able to teach English on a part-time or full-time basis, granting you the flexibility to choose if you’d like more free time to take care of your kids or pursue other passions.
Empower Others
Though it pays well, teaching English is more than just a job. Giving someone the gift of English is like bestowing them a survival tool. As a direct result of learning English, we have seen students finally gain entrance to MNC jobs, get promoted to management and even relocate to the place of their dreams. You can be the enabler to someone’s life.
Take Your Career Anywhere
Awarded by the University of Cambridge, CELTA is not only highly sought after in private institutions, but also opens doors to jobs in language schools, corporate trainings, colleges, universities and enrichment centres in Singapore and overseas. Moreover, the teaching methodology applies for teens and children as well, giving you the opportunity to interact with learners of different ages and backgrounds.
Awarded by Cambridge, CELTA is the most recognised and sought after teaching qualification in the world.
Our graduate services are second to none. Due to the reputation and trust we’ve built with many schools, they come to us regularly to look for CELTA graduate trainees. With our word of recommendation, you could find yourself on your way to teaching in your first classroom shortly after you receive your qualification.

Don’t take our word for it, here are some of our success stories
Sharon had a successful career in HR and as a trailing spouse, she gave that up to look for a new career. She did her CELTA in Spain in 2011 and taught English 2 years as a volunteer in Manila.
Sharon
part time TEACHER
"That was the most fantastic moment of my life teaching those kids. I felt like I was actually doing good and they were all so wonderful, motivated and grateful." Sharon now teaches part time in Singapore, juggling part time teaching and being a mother of two. She teaches with CAIC.
Vidhi graduated from CELTA and within 2 days of her course completion, CAIC set up an interview for a teaching position at Curtin University. Due to our recommendation, Vidhi secured the position and is now teaching at Curtin University.
Vidhi
TEACHER, CURTIN UNIVERSITY
"I can't believe that I got a job like this and Curtin is such a nice place to teach. I love it. I am also quite nervous, but I'm learning so much and applying what I learnt on CELTA, lock, stock and barrel. I didn't expect that any institute would assist in finding a job for real once the course is over. Whereas CAIC is true to their word."

HOW WE HELP YOU FIND WORK
Here are our graduates during their one week internship at MDIS. Why are these internships invaluable? Because they offer employers the most effective recruitment tool as they tend to recruit from teachers who they have seen teaching at their school. Graduates are given an opportunity to show their abilities and skills and have direct contacts to the schools.
We also conduct 6 monthly Job Fairs for our graduates with major schools and universities attending, specifically looking to hire OUR English teachers. No other centre has the network to organize this. CAIC has built quality relationships where we are the trusted name in English teacher training.
