Re The value of DELTA compared to an ordinary Master degree is zero!

No, degree and tefl is enough. I don't want to work for the british council, hence, I don't need a delta.

I just want to teach chinese female students 19-22 (uni age) for 16 classes a week, hence I'm qualified enough.

Re The value of DELTA compared to an ordinary Master degree is zero!

Anyone with a degree in English plus a TEFL is better qualified than someone without a degree and a funny C/DELTA only.

The voice of reason. There is no way you can cram into a 4 week CELTA, no matter how intensive, what you can learn by doing study for a degree and writing a dissertation and then getting a 4 week tefl on top of that. To say that a CELTA is better than, or even equal to, a degree & tefl is just GW nonsense imho!!!!!

A classic strawman!

Nobody said a C/DELTA was better than a degree + TEFL. Your entire argument is based on a fallacy.

You should have a relevant degree + TEFL or a CELTA, then (after a minimum of two years teaching) a DELTA

The information is there, you won't look at it, apparently content to wallow in your own ignorance.

Nobody, at any time, has said what you are saying here. You are arguing a strawman. Nothing more.
