camp start date

The admission to our training camps is on a rolling basis. When we collect at least 5 students in the group, the course begins. Thus, you can apply at any time.

camp STRUCTURE

Some of our camps include classes that last for 2 hours. In this case, the class pattern will be as follows: 50 min tutoring + 20 min break during which students can ask questions + 50 min tutoring. 

All classes will be recorded so students who miss the class can always watch the class recording in order to catch up with the group. 

All teaching resources, including quizzes, handouts and presentations along with class recordings will be uploaded onto Schoology and all course participants will be able to access them at any time.
