textbook

• Most of the lexical / grammar contents in the school syllabus are in the textbook.

Fast forward

After class observation / initial evaluation test, the teacher can recommend the student move forward.

• The teacher will fill in a form recommending a student move to a further level.
• This document must be signed by both the teacher and the student, and eventually by the Head of Studies.
• The student will be notified about the change to a different level and the new group they belong to.
• Students with a B2 certificate from EOI will only move forward (initially, there's no way to take a walk down memory lane, but there are some options out there...).
