Personalized learning
Personalized learning is a key principle of our education. It doesn’t mean, however, that you have to do it all by yourself: there are well-defined requirements and learning objectives to be achieved. Moreover, we provide clear instructions. But your study pace and your pathway towards reaching your goals are for you to decide. Every class (only 20 students per class) has its own coach, who helps you accomplish your goals.
Personalized learning is structured in the following activities:
