Native speakers (our teachers) guide our students through exciting and practical lessons that establish a strong FOUNDATION and advance them to confident COMMUNICATION in their English skills.

Online recorded classes, lessons, and practical assignments work together to accelerate the process of English language acquisition.

LANGUAGE LEARNING JOURNEY
Many people ask, "How long does it take to learn English?" The more correct question is, "WHAT does it take to learn English?"
The amount of time it takes to learn English varies from person to person because the amount of commitment varies from person to person. We've designed an intensive and comprehensive English E-course that can be completed in less than one year IF the student is committed to the process of daily immersion and practice. If a student commits to a more casual schedule, the time to complete the program and attain the desired results will take longer.
Whatever schedule works best for your lifestyle, our English E-course allows you the FREEDOM to learn at your own pace by setting your own schedule. Remember, YOU are in charge and in control of your learning pace! Once enrolled, you will have 24/7 access to the English E-course for one year. (If needed, yearly renewals are available.)
The English E-course can be accessed any time, from anywhere, and on any device. We recommend accessing the course on a computer or tablet due to the screen size.
Weekly Time Commitment Levels
Below are examples of weekly time commitment levels. The “Intensive” frequency is highlighted on the sample calendar to give an idea of how flexible your study schedule can be.
5 Sample Weeks of Daily Schedule Possibilities:
Sunday | Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday | Friday | Saturday |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
B.E.S.T | T.I.M.E | 31 | B.E.S.T | T.I.M.E | 3 | 4 |
5 | 6 | B.E.S.T | T.I.M.E | B.E.S.T | T.I.M.E | 11 |
12 | B.E.S.T | T.I.M.E | B.E.S.T | T.I.M.E | 17 | 18 |
19 | B.E.S.T | T.I.M.E | 22 | 23 | B.E.S.T | T.I.M.E |
26 | 27 | 28 | B.E.S.T | T.I.M.E | B.E.S.T | T.I.M.E |
- Students choose the weekly & daily schedule that works best for them. (See the 5 weekly sample ideas above.)
- The ideal daily time commitment is: one hour per day for B.E.S.T. and one hour per day for T.I.M.E. twice a week.
- By scheduling four study days a week, the student will complete two full lessons each week (B.E.S.T. & T.I.M.E.).
- At this “Intensive” pace, students will complete each Stage in less than 4 months per stage (around 8 months for the full course).
