  • Top teachers trained in the GRAPSA system and at OXFORD UNIVERSITY.
  • Lessons that are experiential and ‘enriched’ (NLP) which utilize the different learning styles of people.
  • Frequent contact (lectures-events) with academic dignitaries.
  • Intensive courses = I save time and money

VS
an ‘ORDINARY’ LESSON
  • Too much time spent on correcting and too little on the spoken language.
  • Slow pace of lessons.
  • Requires extensive studying at home.
  • I transcribe texts to learn spelling.
  • I exhaust myself parroting grammar rules.
  • Limited usage of new technology.
  • The teacher sees me as a young child.
  • Boredom
  • I can read fairly well but I struggle to speak.
  • I do not acquire the vocabulary that is required in my profession or my studies.

Technological Superiority

The new technological revolution and the proper approach to teaching at GRAPSA have established ONLINE GRAPSA courses. We operate in Attiki, regional Greece, and Europe, highlighting the ability of everyone, students and teachers alike to adapt to technology. This agility in the use of technology is a determining factor in the profitability of our schools. Online teaching becomes effective and is offered to everyone.

The online foreign-language lessons take place in real time and meet all the quality standards of an in-person GRAPSA class. In classes kept strictly limited in size and attended by students of a similar level and via a user-friendly online platform with rich interactive content and the use of Interactive Boards.

It is essentially an actual class with classroom teaching taking place in real time within an intensive program.
