"Customized Programs & Quality Instruction for Learning Excellence"

 

PROGRAMS OFFERED

Overview
In all our programs we help individuals increase their knowledge and comprehension while gradually and systematically moving them across the fluency line.
For the past 25 years we have worked with all business and professional sectors.  The effectiveness of our method is partially based on the fact that we customize our instruction and materials for each specific group of students.  Some of the professional areas we have worked in are:
  • Industrial & Manufacturing
  • Service & Hospitality
  • Arts & Education
  • Counseling & Human Resources
  • Managerial & Political
  • Technical & Scientific
  • Medical & Professional
  • Research & Development
  • Sales & Marketing
  • Legal & Financial
Individual Classes
One-on-one programs insure that the level, the context, and the approach are perfectly suited to the student.  This is particularly effective for pronunciation and conversational strategies.
Small Groups 
Much the same advantages as individual classes with the added benefit of peer interaction.
Large Groups
Cost effective and allow for the efficient teaching of grammar and vocabulary.
We normally limit the size of our large groups to 12-15 students to insure that our instructors can constantly tract the level and encourage the progress of each student in the class.  Whatever the size of the class, students must realistically assess their competence and performance in their new language.
Very Large Groups (15-60 students)
Very useful for cultural training and the presentation of "How to Learn A Language".  In such a class students are often subdivided into smaller groups to work together in class to insure that they have ample practice time.
Frequency
A minimum of 2-3 sessions each week is recommended for beginning and intermediate students to insure that progress is constant and that the material acquired goes into long-term memory.
Intensive Programs
Upwards of 6-8 hours per day is maximum for 2-6 weeks.
