INDIVIDUAL LESSONS
The number of lessons and the program are organized in
conjunction with persons interested. For 2 participants there is a reduction
of 40% for the course.
COURSES FOR GROUPS Upon request we can organize ordinary and special
courses for groups for any period of the year. The courses are tailored to the
students needs in agreement with the students themselves.
IMPORTANT:
- Group lessons are usually held in the mornings, however, occasionally
these group lessons may be scheduled in the afternoon.
- Individual lessons are generally held before or after group classes.
- On very rare occasions, a student takes the entrance exam and happens to
be the only student for that particular level. If this occurs, the Standard
4 lesson course will be converted to 2 lessons of individual tuition and the
Intensive 6 lessons course will be converted to 3 lessons of individual
tuition.
- In the event that there are only 2 students for a particular level, the
number of lessons for the class will be reduced by 1 lesson per day (for
example: 3 lessons instead of 4 for the Standard class) given the more
intense nature of a small class size.
- The tuition fee paid for group classes can NOT be transferred to
individual classes, after the beginning of a course.
