The English Language Teaching Centre (ELTC) is part of The University of Sheffield and one of the largest university language centres in the UK.

Much of the centre and many of our courses are accredited by external bodies such as the British Council and BALEAP. The centre is authorised by Cambridge Assessment English as an exam centre and for teaching awards. The British Council inspected and accredited the University of Sheffield English Language Teaching Centre in November 2019.

With over 100 teachers and 20 administrative and support staff, the ELTC teaches and supports several thousand students a year on a range of general, pre-sessional and in-sessional programmes.

The ELTC is housed in a purpose-built facility which includes modern classrooms and well-equipped computer suites, as well as advanced audio-visual equipment and learning resources.

Our courses also take advantage of classrooms and facilities across the University of Sheffield campus.

Our staff have experience of teaching international students in a wide range of locations and situations, both in the UK and overseas.
