I have learned a lot, and I have realised professional projects thanks to the support of the mentors! The team is always at the top and always looking for solutions to problems, I felt accompanied and supported! It's not easy every day, but it's a great adventure!

Thanks to its innovative system, the school offers a diplomatic training during which we are followed by a "mentor", a sort of "tutor"!

Great support and quality courses! A mentor helps you move forward and can be contacted through flexible schedules. Everything you need to start your career on the web.

The course will focus on both speaking and writing in academic English. The 5-week curriculum has been developed to support children who lack the confidence and who will start benefitting immediately in their day to day school life.

The home work load is around 2 hours per session. The maximum number of students is 10. After the first lesson, there is still the option to opt-out. So why not give it a try? Late enrolments are also accepted.
