To provide our students with a fully immersive online experience our programming is currently sold in four-week packages. This way, our teachers are able to familiarize themselves with the students and everyone can comfortably learn in the online format.
At Access to Language Studies we believe in providing our students with a unique experience that is tailored to meet their learning needs and circumstances. We constantly offer new classes, including Intensive ones, so please contact us if you can’t find the program that best suits your needs on our website. We excel at offering tailored experiences to student groups and students also can opt in to receive One-to-One Premiere Tutoring for additional support.
To provide the best learning experience for our students we provide our program during daytime/evening hours in their home country.
During the enrollment process, students will be asked to choose the number of sessions they prefer and the desirable start date. After enrolling, students will be contacted by our Academic Department and they will be invited to take an online English Proficiency Placement Test. After the student completes the test and our academic department reviews the results, students will be placed in a class based on their English level and age. Students will be contacted by our office who will suggest starting dates and class times considering their time zone. If the class times don’t fit the students’ schedule, they will have a choice to postpone their starting date or cancel their participation in our program. A worry-free full refund of any payments made to Access to Language Studies will apply if we cannot provide you with a class on the dates and times that accommodate you best.
Students’ final projects take the form of a video or a slideshow demonstrating for everyone their research, knowledge and opinions on American culture and traditions (while relating them to their own) all while demonstrating their knowledge of the English language. They have the option to work independently or with their newfound friends at Access Academy!
