Learning Environments
The student chooses the level of individual attention:
  • be alone with the teacher (Tutorial)
  • share a lesson with 3 other students (Quatorial)
    Lesson types can be combined, for example a student can choose part of the course as Tutorial and part as Quatorial.

    TutorialTutorial Lessons
    With this option, the teaching programme is based entirely on individual lessons. This means that the tutor's attention is focused uniquely on one student, and allows for a perfect match between lesson content and the learning requirements of the student. Tutorial tuition ensures that maximum progress is made in a short period of time by allowing the tutor to devote 100% of his attention to the student.

    QuatorialQuatorial Lessons
    Lessons take place in small groups of a maximum of 4 students per teacher. The Quatorial provides high levels of individual attention within a small, dynamic learning unit. The reduced number of students means that the tutor is able to address fully the linguistic needs and objectives of each participant. The Quatorial is also a highly interactive learning environment where the emphasis is on communication and information exchange.

    CombinationCombination Programmes
    The combination approach enables participants to benefit from the interactive group dynamics of either Quatorial lessons and the individual attention of a personal tutor in the Tutorial lessons.

    Seminars
    In addition to Quatorial and Tutorial lessons, your program may include several teacher-led seminar sessions per week. These usually take place in groups of 8-12 students of different levels (reflecting reality) and are designed to promote active expression in English. They focus on a variety of aspects of the language and include, for example, pronunciation, grammar, presentations, role-plays, lectures and debates.
