Why online lessons?
We've prepared a video for you in that our Senior Teacher Tom explains how we teach online and what we can teach you in online lessons.
Why switch to online lessons?
1. Continuity and regularity are vital for successful learning.
2. You will not miss lessons that would otherwise be very difficult to replace.
3. Online learning via video call simulates one of the most common ways of using a foreign language in a corporate environment.
4. Current technologies (e.g. Meet, see Online Lessons tab) guarantee high-quality learning in an online environment.
5. Flexibility of the online environment leads to more steadiness - it will be easier to find new time slots for lessons with your current teacher.
How do the online lessons work?
The teacher will send you a link to join the video chat environment - you don't have to worry about anything, just have a device with an internet connection and a microphone/camera
In addition to conducting the lesson via video call, the instructor uses:
chat tool as an alternative to the whiteboard
screen sharing for sharing materials
shares videos or pictures
larger files (e.g. audios from a textbook) are shared by the teacher in advance via email/cloud storage
mobile phone apps - e.g. Quizlet, for learning phrases and vocabulary
