Primetime English

To offer the most complete language learning solutions byleveraging distance learning with highly-qualified native teachers combined with the highest quality teaching materials.

Our Mission

Primetime English

We believe that building a relationship between student and teacher is essential to effective learning.

Our Approach:

Our approach is to offer highly-personalized language training and coaching. We do this by first getting to know the student’s needs and then custom tailoring the course material to best meet the needs of the students.

We offer a wide range of course options and books, some digital and others in

book format. We feel strong opposed to

one-size-fits-all solutions with often poorly-qualified

teachers.

Primetime English

Latest in Internet–Based Language Learning Technology

Students will have access to

our online Cloud Library, which

includes books, textbooks, activities, practice

materials and a variety of

multimedia files.

Students afforded opportunity to

practice independently with

online materials such as films, videos, news broadcasts,

podcasts, songs, amongst other

forms of media. The Cloud Content is

constantly updated to ensure that

students are using the current material

possible.

Primetime English

Free Demo Class

We offer every student a free demonstration class of 30 minutes so he can get to know the online platform, our content and methodology. None of the global online

courses offer this to their clients.

We feel this is essential to gain their trust and make it easy for the student to choose to study with us.

Primetime English

In-the-Cloud Content Distribution

We use Google Drive and Dropbox to deliver content directly to the student's computer, including PDFs, documents, presentations, audios, videos, and podcasts.

This content is updated frequently and automatically delivered to all students.

Primetime English

Blended Learning Programs

While books are an excellent tool for students, so are other forms of media. We include video clips, films, songs, interviews, newscasts, podcasts among other forms of media to stimulate conversation, keep our students engaged and provide interesting, up to date material that help hone all aspects of the language.

For specific professional areas we use books and CDs from renowned publishers that are given to students to study at home, while the teacher uses the pdf and mp3 online

during class.

Primetime English

We don’t require the student to sign annual contracts which oblige payment even when they wish to stop or interrupt the course. Students feel trapped and taken

advantage of by these types of contracts because of the penalties imposed on them to cancel the course.

No Contract Required

Primetime English

Building bonds between teacher and student

The leading online courses treat teaching like fast food where the student studies with the

teacher available at the moment which leads to contact with different teacher almost

every class.

This impedes the building of affinity and connection between student and

teacher. We believe that effective learning requires a bond of continuity of contact. We keep the students with

the same teacher until they decide they would like a different teacher.

Primetime English

We offer monthly coaching sessions where our language coaches confer with the student’s teacher to talk about the students’ needs and current difficulties with the language.

The coach prepares suggestions about sites and resources to consult and use in order to overcome the obstacles.

The coaching suggestions are sent to the student and he’s invited to schedule an online meeting with his coach. This coach has the purpose of accelerating the learning process by working directly on specific issues and motivating the student to renew dedication to his studies.

Regular Coaching with Tips and Suggestions

Primetime English

We encourage the student to do 6 month and 12 month fluency evaluations through practice or real TOEIC testing.

6 month and 12 month Fluency Evaluations

Primetime English

Social LearningWe adhere to

constructivist and humanistic

philosophy where students are

active participants in the classes.

Students are encouraged to

form groups with their friends,

work colleagues or family

members. We give the student

the option of forming his own group or joining an existing one.

Primetime English
