CONSULTATION
- Free consultation to establish needs, goals and current fluency level
- Free level assessment based on consultation and/or written test
The first step is to fill in the questionnaire and tell us what your language learning expectations are.
We will then contact you to assess your language skill level and needs. It is important we understand why you want to learn, how you want to learn, what you hope to achieve, what your current language skills are, and how much time you’d like to commit. This is a free interview with our team member who will help you choose the course that is best for you.
OUR PROPOSAL
We will present you with a tailor-made offer that suits your needs. The proposal will include training format, course content, course duration and price. The proposal is a framework which you are able to refine to meet your schedule and specific learning circumstances. Once agreed, the proposal is passed to our operations team.
BOOKING & PAYMENT
Our operations team will contact you to complete the registration details and to confirm times and durations.
You will then receive an invoice from PRODIREKT LLC – the education group that owns the Verbalists Education & Language Network.
Upon receipt of your payment, we will select and engage one of our expert trainers who matches your needs and is available to teach you in your time zone.
LESSONS SCHEDULING
We offer flexible scheduling for the busiest agendas. This means that our trainers can usually reschedule according to your needs, ideal for the busy person who cannot plan more than 2 or 3 days ahead.
Minimum lesson duration is 60 minutes (30 minutes for children). Minimum number of lessons is 10.
START LEARNING ONLINE
Experience dynamic and participative lessons by accessing Verbalists Language Network’s own high-quality virtual classroom. We use the learning resources and digital material that have been specifically designed for our clients.
Your trainer will continuously assess your strengths, weaknesses and learning style, and adapt the teaching method and materials accordingly in order to maximize your language acquisition.
A variety of materials will be used to encourage development of different language skills, such as course books, videos, print media, the internet and personal tailored worksheets. All sessions can be recorded and reviewed.
END OF COURSE & FEEDBACK
The trainer will conduct regular progress assessments (formal and informal) to track your progress and make recommendations on the next steps. This can be arranged for every block of 20 hours, and highlights both areas of success and action points for future training.
We will also carry out a final review to reflect on your course experience and assess whether you have achieved the learning outcomes identified in your initial course preparation.
After your last lesson you will be provided with a certificate of completion to celebrate your learning.
