Tuition:
Most people take the weekly course. Tuition
is from 9:00 in the morning to 12:15, Monday
to Friday. You can stay for as many weeks
as you would like to, with a minimum of one
week. The course includes participation in
the free time programme.
Group size: The DIT
Weekly Intensive Group Course has classes
of between 2 and 6 people per class. This
is a very intensive learning experience. You
learn a lot faster in such a small group:
compare this with learning in a class of between
10 and 20 people - you participate more, the
challenge is greater, you have more control
over what you study and what topics or grammar
points are discussed or studied, you get more
individual attention from your teacher, you
get to know your teacher better as well as
your class mates, and there are many other
advantages.
Standards:
We have groups of every standard from absolute
beginner to the very advanced. We ask everyone
(except beginners) to take a short test on their
first Monday morning so that we can put you
in the right class for your standard. If you
are the only person of your particular standard,
we do not cancel your course as most schools
do: instead, we offer you a course with full
participation in the free time programme etc,
but we reduce your lesson time from 9:00 to
10:30 (instead of 12:15, that is you get 2 lesson
of 45 minutes per unit, instead of 4). You effectively
get private lessons at the group rate.
