“I’ve passed Functional skills, Teaching assistant and IT courses in Elatt, very friendly and supportive staff. I am now working at a school & it's all because of the full support that I've received from Elatt. Interestingly they still help me participate in a virtual TA Level which is fantastic. Big thank you to all of you, I can't thank you enough!”

"I am currently studying with elatt and I am super happy, the teachers are all good, kind, respectful and friendly. I did 3 courses online with elatt (esol level 1 + TA level 2 + functional skills L 1+L2) and I am willing to continue with elatt because honestly I've learned and improved a lot in my career. I recommend elatt with force. Thanks for elatt team.”

“I just finished the L1 TA Course at ELATT and I'm very pleased. I was not sure what to expect because I thought this class was going to be very difficult for me but I was quite impressed with the entire learning process. Our teacher was experienced and I was very impressed with her method of teaching. She made us feel important. All my questions were answered and the class interaction was very good. I enjoyed every moment that I have been working with my teachers and classmates. Thank you ELATT.”
