Description

Designed for busy professionals with limited time, the Accelerated Combo Course allows you to maximize your English language training and immersion experience in a short time. In group lessons, which are typically held in the morning, students benefit from group interaction which particularly helps build conversation skills in addition to all the other skills (reading, listening, speaking, writing, and grammar). After lunch, Accelerated Combo Course students take two intensive one-to-one lessons. Students can choose the set curriculum of Business English and/or, being a private class, students can focus on their specific needs such as Test Preparation (TOEFL, TOEIC, IELTS, or Cambridge), pronunciation, or Academic English. The private teacher conducts a needs assessment in the first class and customizes lessons and assignments according to the student’s needs and objectives. Choose this course to maximize your learning potential and “accelerate” your acquisition of English language skills!
