taking part in this course will be taught free of charge by
professionals as well as by apprentice teachers preparing for
obtaining a Cambridge CELTA (Cambridge English Language Teaching to
Adults) Diploma. The apprentices are not native speakers of
English language-they are teachers from different parts of the
world who want to receive a diploma proving their methodical skills.

Agent),

phone number and a short characteristic of the host family
