This fun and engaging program is one week in duration and includes 10 hours of professional instruction (10 hours per week). Classes start every Monday (unless it falls on a holiday) and run Monday - Friday (weekends are free). Upon purchase of your desired program you will receive a placement test email and complete a short on-site oral assessment on the first Monday of classes. These assessments help determine your level and class times for the week.
The maximum class size is 6 and all classrooms are equipped with AC and ceiling fans to ensure a comfortable environment.
Class times are the following. Please note that due to the fluctuating nature of the level spread and number of students, we cannot guarantee specific class times for our group classes and students will always be scheduled according to their level. With that being said, we always strive to match students' preferences.
Monday - Friday: 8am-1140am or 1pm-440pm
