The Learning Process
There are many different learning types and approaches to learning. To learn effectively, you need to tailor your study habits to your own needs and style, which often means choosing techniques that help you learn. If you choose to learn at our virtual school, our teachers will assist you in developing your personal "style", or "method" of learning. They will help you to remain strongly motivated even when working with the most difficult materials. The whole process of learning will be creative, interactive and very friendly. Sign up for a course you need to take, and you'll enjoy every minute of your classes.
Individual Instruction Classes
The most effective way to acquire new knowledge is to study in tight collaboration with a real expert of the subject. Being able to receive multiple hours of individual one-in-one instruction from a certified and highly skilled professional is becoming possible now due to development of online communication techlologies. Thus, the most talented and highly skilled international teachers can now share their time with you in our virtual classroom.
Taking a few hours of personal instruction every week can become a perfect solution for those who need to master a subject deeply in a relatively short period of time. Your personal online instructor can help you in a number of areas:
- assist you in building your own plan (strategy) in learning;
- help you realize where your knowledge is stronger or weaker;
- provide simple explanations to complicated things and assist in understanding textbooks or other learning materials;
- suggest additional information which can be significant to you, depending on your particular goal in learning;
- advise you about the best tools, methods or strategies in self-study;
- consult and coach you about possible practical applications of the knowledge you acquire.
The accent in individual instruction classes is made on design of individualized course of study for each individual learner, depending on his/her initial knowledge level, personal learning / memorizing ability, time and intensity of classes and particular learning goals.
A distinguishing feature of individual instruction classes at our virtual school is the availability of instructor's time, skill and talent for particular student at the most convenient time. During the first virtual meeting, the instructor and the student discuss the most convenient timetable of classes. From this moment and on, during the whole time of learning, the teacher's time and attention are solely devoted to the student's learning needs.
Group Classes
Those who are interested in taking group classes, can attend a virtual classroom which allows presence of 5-9 students and an instructor. These classes are provided to groups of people who are interesteed in taking a particular course which would be specifically designed, developed and taught to adjust to their common learning goal. For example, a course of banking terminology in English language can be taught to a group of Chinese bankers who are mastering their skills in English and need to use English in their professional activity.
Depending on the learning goal of a group, a course can be designed and taught by a teacher virtually, via our voice enabled virtual classroom. During the group classes, the teacher will pay attention to individual progress of each student and provide additional advice to every student individually.
