Project DELTA
Diploma in English Language Teaching to Adults
Who is this Wiki for?
- For teachers like me who have just done the DELTA couresework component and are waiting for the exam results (This was when I started the Wiki. Results have arrived by now :) See here).
- For teachers who are contemplating or have already signded up for a DELTA course.
- For tutors to give them an idea what expectations and questions prospective DELTA candidates have and to get feedback from former DELTA candidates.
Why a Wiki about DELTA?
- There are many exam preperation books for our students but no prep books for the DELTA.
- I've searched the Internet a lot but couldn't find many DELTA-related websites.
- No matter how much they tell you to prepare well, you come unprepared for what it really is.
- Because of the time pressure there was not much time to exchange ideas and talk about our experience and opinions. This wiki could become an extension of the course. Candidates who are doing the course or who have finished could meet up here and continue to talk and share.
What I would like to see here?
There are already many blogs and websties with lessons plans or sample assignmets (e.g developingteachers.com).
Here, I would rather like to see:
- Your feelings about the DELTA (of former candidates, of would-be candidates)
- How you think your teaching has changed (or why it hasn't changed)
- Was it worth taking? What do you expect to find in the course? What did you find? What did you miss?
- Your tips on how to pass/survive the DELTA course
- For future candidates: What would you like to know about the DELTA and cannot find on the offical pages or on the centre websites? Maybe there are some former candidates who can answer them.
Remember, I have created this Wiki but I hope it will become a platform for many teachers,
tutors and candidates.
