FAQ
-
Can I change or add classes after enrollment?
Yes, you can. About 10–20% of our students add 1:1 classes or switch to native-language classes. Please go to the Academic Office to see which teachers are available and learn about any extra costs.
The table below shows the fees for changing or adding classes.
-
Can I change teachers at any time?
If you want to change teachers, please contact the scheduler at the Academic Office Counseling Desk. Teacher changes are usually on Wednesday and Thursday, but new students who have been on campus less than two weeks can change teachers anytime.
-
Can I learn what I want?
Each course has a curriculum made for your level. If you want to study a specific topic in class, we can include it as long as it does not stop your English learning. Sometimes we may use specific textbooks. Please talk to us before registering if you want this.
See the curriculum below to guide you.
-
Is the evening program mandatory?
The evening program runs after school from 7 PM and includes classes and required self-study. If you are enrolled in a Sparta Course (Intensive ESL or IELTS courses), you must attend the evening program. If you are enrolled in a Semi-Sparta course, the evening program is optional. However, if you want to join, please apply at the admin office first.
-
What is a Saturday Class?
Our school believes that learning English every day a little is better than studying a lot in one day. That is why we are the first school in the Philippines to have Saturday classes every week, making a six-day class week. Students in the Sparta Course are required to attend this class.
-
What makes the Sparta Course different?
The Sparta Program has a tight schedule and strict rules, with little time for play or entertainment. However, it helps students focus fully on their studies.
Our Sparta Course includes four IELTS courses and an Intensive ESL course. They share these common features:
- Students are closely monitored by coordinators for attendance, behavior in class, and progress in English.
- Students must take part in the following mandatory activities. Breaking the rules may lead to penalties, such as Saturday self-study or a written warning:
- Attend evening programs from Monday to Friday.
- Restricted going out from Monday to Thursday.
- Attend Saturday classes.
- Take part in all tests.
- Leaving the school is not allowed from Monday to Thursday. You may go out to 7-Eleven near the school only with permission.
