FSL and ESL courses

The FSL and ESL courses form a large part of the CIOCINSTITUTE program. Each student has an optimal learning opportunity and a high level of attention. Our courses are precisely designed by our experienced teaching team and our teachers are qualified in TESL type second language teaching and / or hold relevant university degrees. Our teaching formulas allow students to learn in depth and better assimilate their second language. Adequate supervision and mentoring promote rapid progress and help identify students’ strengths and weaknesses in order to guide them towards achieving their linguistic objectives. Our sessions last four (4) weeks. Small formative and summative evaluations are given regularly during the first three (3) weeks. During the fourth week, the “exam week”, students will have to take final written tests online on the platform. And take part in interviews with their regular teachers in order to give them oral presentations via zoom. Students will receive their results before the last day of the session and will know if they have passed or failed.
