SUBJECTS DISCUSSED
If you want, for example, to get help from your teacher to understand the terms used in administrative forms, you must inform him or her. Teachers plan learning activities based on your interests, specific needs, and level of English. We have tests to evaluate your level, but it is up to you to mention to your professor your interests and special needs.
You may also have the language skills to immigrate to your host country, but still need to improve your skills depending on your profession. In this case, you should inform the teacher of your willingness to work on vocabulary related to your profession. The success of your English classes is based on teamwork between you and the teacher.

We have a study area at your disposal which allows you to access a multitude of information to optimize your learning. You can also discuss with your teacher your willingness to do exercises outside of school hours to consolidate the concepts learned during the course, the latter will send you your homework through the study area.
LENGTH OF THE CLASSES
At Global Lingua, the courses are given on a frequency that is best for people. People usually choose to take 30-minute or one-hour classes, but it is also possible to opt for courses of longer duration. Beginning students generally choose to start the program with a 30-minute class. As soon as you’re more fluent in English, you will feel comfortable continuing the program by taking one-hour classes.
OTHER LANGUAGES COURSES THAT MIGHT BE INTERESTING
