A wonderful page that offers a great CPD program. I've had the chance to be trained but not the opportunity to be tested and get a certificate in my country (Algeria). I recommend all colleagues to apply.

As a full time teacher of both English and Spanish, I can tell that the materials found on this page are quite useful to teach either spanish and English. The book targets one of the main concerns of ELT, which is the way we teach grammar and punctuation. Congrats, and keep going with this amazing page.
