*<\/b>Standard Option<\/b>:
\n<\/b>Every attempt is made to place the student in a class suited to his or her level.<\/p>\n

9 different levels exist<\/b>.
\nThis is important to know, for 2 reasons:
\n1, the student can feel comfortable in knowing he\/she will be placed in a suitable class based on his\/her current level.
\n2, the student can feel confident in knowing there is an objective progression in place if he\/she desires to study and enroll on long timelines.<\/p>\n

In other words, with the 9 level system<\/i>, if a student entered at level 3, as an example, he\/she could aim to improve until reaching level 9. \u00a0After graduating from level 9, the student will no longer need me as his\/her teacher. \u00a0The rest will depend on the student, personal diligence, and however high he\/she wishes to go given his\/her intelligence level, focus level, natural ability, talent, joy for learning, and so forth.<\/p>\n

This system is very intensive<\/i> as well, since the only way I know how to teach is intensively. \u00a0I want students to get high value for their money, period. \u00a0Quality teaching is guaranteed<\/i><\/b>.<\/b> If progress is not being made at a satisfactory pace, then a meeting will take place between the student and top management to discuss the matter. \u00a0All efforts are made to assist the student to reach his\/her goal(s).<\/i><\/p>\n\r\n\t\t<\/div> \r\n\t\t<\/div>

For specific tailor designed courses<\/i>, modules are made to meet or exceed the requests of the client(s). \u00a0For example, when the client desires an industry specific module<\/i><\/b> to be designed for either overseas travel or overseas assignments<\/b>,\u00a0to help improve productivity in the language and work setting overseas, this service is offered. \u00a0It is tailored\u00a0to the present language proficiency of the students.<\/p>\n

Specific target setting will be explicitly outlined<\/i><\/b>and\u00a0the methods {\u2018means\u2019 (ref., Aristotle), methodology, processes} of reaching those targets {\u2018ends\u2019 (ref., Aristotle)} will be shared with the client(s).\r\n\t\t<\/div> \r\n\t\t<\/div>
