Semi-Spartan Program: Experience The Joy Of Studying

The Light Program, which only has 5 classes a day, is suitable for those who have to work while studying or those who need enough personal time. The Semi-Spartan course can be called a 'traditional Philippine ESL program'. There are 7-8 classes a day, and after school, you can interact with classmates or have personal time. It is an ideal program for those who want both academic and memories with friends

Spartan Program: Immerse Yourself In The Studies

On the other hand, in the Spartan program, you can expect satisfactory academic results in a short period of time under the tight management of a dedicated coordinator. Ofcourse, the regulations of this program are somewhat strict, so you can say that it is a result obtained by sacrificing something (freedom, socializing with friends, personal time, etc.).
About 50% of our students complete the Spartan program and generally show good progress. However, about 2-3% fail to adapt and change to a semi-Spartan course in the middle.
The Spartan program is worth the challenge! However, you need to check the regulations carefully and make sure you are ready to do it yourself.

Native Speaker 1:1 Program

We have been running the Native Speaker Program since 2010. Of course, Filipino teachers are kind and give meaningful results to beginners of English. However, can we overlook Native speakers who are Native English speakers when learning English? Can we speak advanced English without Native speakers?
THIS IS WHY WE HAVE MAINTAINED THE NATIVE SPEAKER PROGRAM FOR THE PAST

20 YEARS. Our Native speakers are mostly American or British, and the ratio is 1 to 15 students. You will meet these Native speakers in one-on-one classes and small group classes. The courses are mainly Speaking Master, Speech & Pronunciation, Current Issues, Business Presentation, IELTS Speaking & Pronunciation. Beginners can take it, but if you are at an intermediate level, it is commended to take a Native speaker class with a Filipino teacher.

Speaking-Centered Curriculum!

Separate from the program, the curriculum of all our courses is centered on speaking. The speaking-related subjects are abundant, and they have a great influence on improving speaking skills without making students bored. Some subjects are dynamic, some are serious, and some are taught by Native speakers, which will keep you interested and motivated.
THIS IS OUR DIFFERENCE! this is our difference!

Depending on the needs of the subject, Filipino teachers or Native speakers are in charge. Pronunciation and practical expressions, which are subjects that must be taught by Native speakers. And Filipino teachers who understand the students' position well as Non-native speakers, stand out in basic conversation, vocabulary, grammar, and writing

Preview Learning

When we speak our native language, we do not have much difficulty in conversation even if we do not know the exact meaning of a word, especially if that word is a noun. We are habitually obsessed with having to look up words in a dictionary, and this hinders the improvement of our speaking skills. For this reason, we do not recommend using a cell phone to look up words during class. Our teachers provide topics or related information about the content to be learned 1-2 weeks before class, and students search for related materials or study in advance. Through previewing, students prepare various vocabulary and content in advance, and through brainstorming, they can visualize how to prepare for discussions.
THIS LEARNING WILL NEVER BE 'ERASED' FROM YOU

6-Day Classes A Week Including Saturday

Our classes are held six days a week. There are many ways to learn English as a foreign language and improve your skills, but we believe that the most important thing is 'CONTINUITY OF STUDIES'.

The most ideal thing is to use only English day and night, 365 days a year (laughs). However, realistically, we will have to be satisfied with six days a week. Regular classes are held from Monday to Friday, and optional classes are held on Saturdays. Since it is a Spartan program, attendance management is tight, and Saturday classes are also mandatory. Now, let's take a look at our weekday and Saturday schedule. There may be individual differences, but please understand the following as an example onlyThe Spartan program is worth the challenge! However, you need to check the regulations carefully and make sure you are ready to do it yourself.
