The number of classes for one unit can vary depending on the child’s progress, but typically it ranges from 4 to 20 classes.

We assess students’ progress after every 10 units with a review to check their understanding. If necessary, we revisit key concepts before moving on to the next unit.

We send progress reports once a year. These reports provide an overview of their achievements, areas of improvement, and next steps in their learning journey.

We recommend that students have a pen and a notebook during class to practice writing. This allows them to take notes and complete any written exercises as part of their learning.

Yes, once a week, within 48 hours after the last class of the week, our students receive homework by email to complete before the next class. Homework is not mandatory, but we highly recommend it to help students practice between classes and reinforce their learning. Except for The Petite Academy, there is no homework.

A lesson lasts 15, 25, or 50 minutes, depending on the program and the child’s attention span.

After the free trial, you will receive an email with your child’s level placement and the recommended class duration based on their attention span.

Our classes are tailored to each student, ensuring comfort and inclusivity. Teachers adjust their language to meet individual needs, with a special program for beginners. We use games and immersion, starting with simple words, mimes, and gestures. As students progress, teachers introduce more complex language to build confidence. All teachers are bilingual and can use English when needed.

Yes, it is absolutely possible to organize classes for siblings or friends, as long as the children are of a similar age and have a comparable level of French.
