Courses
Popular with teachers and students alike, the courses are aimed at a range of ages and abilities. The main focus is on young learners aged 7 to 14, although some courses are also run for older and younger students. The class sizes are kept small, to an average of 8-12 students which allows for noticeable progress to be made and also makes classroom management that much easier.

Course books are accompanied by a wide range of supplementary materials - flashcards, posters, handouts, CD’s, videos, songs and in-class computer applications, all essential for teachers to deliver varied, engaging classes. Most of the schools have installed interactive whiteboards which add an exciting new dimension to how the teachers can deliver their classes.
