COURES
How are the lessons delivered?
Online
REGULAR COURSES, COMPACT COURSES & TOPICS
Most classes are taught online. We offer courses that are:
- Non-interactive (NI)
- Partially Interactive (PI)
- Fully interactive (FI)
For an explanation of what this means, see the courses page.
In-person
REGULAR COURSES, COMPACT COURSES & TOPICS
When online classes are not desired, or are inappropriate, we can deliver them in-person. Typically this is for:
- Individual classes
- Closed group of connected learners
- Organisational training programs
We are an organisation that has a global reach, with many associate teaching professionals around the world. Therefore, we can offer off-the-shelf or tailored learning programs in most major global cities.
At weekend breaks in the learners’ own countries
EFL & ELT TOPICS
Short, 10-hour courses on specific topics (independent modules), are delivered on short breaks in the learners’ own countries. These are of three types:
- Practice skills in any area of EFL (General English) or ESP (Special Purpose English)
- ELT CPD modules (English for EFL Teachers)
- Revision for national or international examinations – whether for jobs or university entry
Locations are major cities in most countries.
At 4-week breaks in the UK (London or Cambridge)
COMPACT COURSES
Compact or intensive programmes of 60 hours are offered at specific-purpose facilities in the UK. Learners have the option to stay with an English family.
Frequently-asked Questions
Will the other learners in my group be of the same nationailty as me?
On online courses, it is most unlikely that the other learners are of the same nationality as you. We are a global organisation and we attract learners from all over the world.
On in-person courses, it is most likely that the other learners in your group are of the same nationality. This is because in-person groups generally consist of learners from the same organisation, same university or the same country.
There are many schools and teachers in my country that teach English using my native language as the medium of instruction. Is this advisable practice?
We do not recommend using students’ native language to teach English. We also do not recommend translating to and from the students’ native language. Such methods are old and only partially useful in a developed and informed teaching methodology.
