I am delighted to have successfully completed the CELTA course. It has been a challenging yet incredibly rewarding journey that has helped me grow both professionally and personally as an English language teacher. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to all the tutors and staff at the centre for their guidance, support, and encouragement throughout the course. Your expertise, constructive feedback, and dedication made a significant difference in my development as a teacher. Thank you for creating such a positive and inspiring learning environment. I am proud to be a CELTA graduate and look forward to applying everything I have learned in my future teaching career.

Every great journey begins with a spark — and mine began with a message sent in faith. Back in 2020, I first heard about Britishey Training Centre and their Ofqual‑regulated TEFL certificates. By 2024, while finishing my General Diploma in Education, I knew I needed to study there. Despite hearing a few baseless rumors, Britishey remained my ultimate goal. The only problem? My bank account didn’t quite match my ambition yet. Undeterred, in July 2023, I took a leap of faith and messaged them asking for a volunteering opportunity just to get my foot in the door. While that particular door didn’t open right away, my determination never wavered. Exactly one year later, in July 2024, the stars aligned. I officially enrolled in my first course, and my career completely transformed: The TEFL Breakthrough (Oct 2024): Led by the phenomenal Dr. Shady Abuyusuf, this course blew my mind and rewired how I teach. It was such a game‑changer that before the course even finished, I received an official job offer from the centre. IELTS & The Dream Team CELTA (Mid‑2025): I was encouraged to dive into IELTS teaching with Mr. Ismail Noaman, another absolute wizard of a tutor. Soon after, I hit the jackpot by taking my CELTA with both Dr. Shady and Mr. Ismail in one powerhouse course. From Teacher to Trainer (CTT & CertPT): The centre then pushed me to take the OET and the CTT (Certificate in Teacher Training), even trusting me to act as an assistant TEFL tutor. Finally, the CertPT (Training of Trainers) with Dr. Shady completed my transformation from a classroom teacher into a confident teacher trainer. What makes Britishey truly extraordinary is that management — especially Dr. Shady Abuyusuf — doesn’t just teach modules; they invest in souls. They place a relentless emphasis on continuous professional development, handing me a ladder and pushing me to climb it. They saw a future trainer in a passionate student teacher, and they gave me the tools to become one. To say I am grateful is an understatement. I am profoundly indebted to Dr. Shady, Mr. Ismail, and the entire Britishey team for recognizing my dedication and truly believing in my potential from the moment I officially walked through their doors. I am more ambitious than ever and excited for our next professional development steps together.

I do heartily thank you, Dr. Shady, for taking such a beneficial course with you. Aside from being an exemplary figure of how to be a proficient teacher trainer, you have kindly taught me the gemstones of patience, confidence, and empathy. Thank you for not only showing me the way as a trainer but also for teaching me how to maintain my humanness despite any pressurizing situations. Forever grateful.

A sincere thank you to Dr. Shady for the professional delivery, dedication and assistance throughout the CertPT course, and guidance to complete our assignments successfully. The course exceeded my expectations, and I really recommend it to anyone who wants to proceed in his PD.

Deep appreciation to Britishey team and Dr, Shady for their continued support. The CertPT program has been a transformative academic experience, refining our thinking around instructional design and enhancing our capacity to create purposeful and impactful learning experiences.

Words are not enough, Dr. Shady, to express my gratitude for everything you do. Professional development means nothing unless it is guided by someone as devoted, honest, and truly expert as you. Thank you, Shady, for your continuous support. I have always been proud to be part of Britishey. Good luck, my brother, and I look forward to joining the amazing courses yet to come.

First of all, I would like to thank Dr. Shady for continuous support. I really appreciate your efforts.This course was really useful, and impressive.

My experience in CertPT would not have been so positive without such an amazing tutor like Dr Shady. He was so patient and encouraging and he has a brilliant way of making learning something new really easy and relevant. His feedback was always encouraging and thoughtful, and he was very supportive through the whole course.

One of the most valuable professional development experiences recently has been joining the CertPT course at Britishey Center with Dr. Shady Abou Youssef. The course has been a truly enriching journey that expanded my understanding of what it means to become a teacher trainer, not only in terms of knowledge and methodology, but also in terms of mindset, reflection, and professional awareness. Throughout the course, there was a strong balance between theory and practical application, which made every session both insightful and highly engaging. The experience provided deeper exposure to areas such as training delivery, session planning, observation, feedback, and reflective practice — all of which added significant value to my professional growth. A special appreciation to Dr. Shady Abuyusuf for the continuous support, guidance, and professionalism throughout the journey. The learning environment created during the course encouraged meaningful discussion, critical thinking, and continuous development. Grateful for this experience and looking forward to applying these insights in future teacher training and educational contexts.

Honestly choosing to do my CELTA at this center was hands down one of the best professional decisions I’ve ever made! From day one, the course was incredibly intense,and rollercoaster, but the sheer level of support from the tutors made all the difference. Their feedback was sharp, constructive, and completely transformed the way I approach lesson planning and classroom management. If you are serious about teaching English and want a program that genuinely prepares you for the real-world classroom, look no further. Worth every single ounce of effort

My experience at Britishey was amazing and I recommend it.

I am writing this testimonial to thank Mr. Shady Abuyusuf, who was my main course tutor in the CertPT course, for his patience, support, and insights. I remember that he called me personally to support me and help me construct a very challenging framework, the loop input, after failing to successfully create it. Thanks, Britishey Training Centre and Mr. Abuyusuf! You have really been cooperative all along, and the experience will never be forgotten!
