All courses follow a communicative approach, combining vocabulary development, grammar practice, conversation, and listening activities. Lesson materials are shared with students in advance, and all classes are recorded so they can be reviewed later as part of students’ independent study. Recordings are also particularly helpful if a student is unable to attend a class. After each lesson, students receive a follow-up email with the link to the recording, the lesson notes, and the homework assignments.
