Live online classes are scheduled throughout the day, every day, so you can choose to study what you want, when you want. When you log in for the first time, you will be asked to select your time zone and your preferred time format (12-hour clock or 24-hour clock). All the class times will be shown according to your selected local time.

The exact number of classes you can attend in a month depends on your subscription plan.

Every English Online package includes a set number of class credits per month, which you use to book group classes (1 credit each) or private classes (2 credits each). It’s up to you to decide how to use your credits and which classes you want to take – they offer you complete flexibility.

Their classes are organised in specific themes, according to their topic. One theme consists of 6 lessons and the topics range from social and cultural topics to business-oriented ones. While completing themes is not mandatory, at the end of each theme you will unlock a 2-part assessment.

To track your progress, they highly recommend that you complete this assessment at the end of each theme.

The assessment consists of 2 parts:

• Theme challenge: You have 30 minutes to complete 2 language exercises (grammar and/or vocabulary) and 2 text activities (reading and/or listening). Note that your quiz starts as soon as you click on “Start the challenge”. Your score will be saved after 1 attempt and you cannot retake it.

• Private speaking test: 25 minutes (2 credits). You will be able to book this test after completing the theme challenge.

After the speaking test, you will receive a feedback report from your teacher within 24 hours and you will also receive a digital badge in return for your hard work.
