Courses via the Internet
→
Courses via the
Internet are computer-based and realised online. They are no different than private tutoring and they are delivered in a
traditional educational manner. There is the possibility of tutoring small
groups of 2-3 or 4 students.
Courses via
the Internet – The process
Courses via
the Internet are private courses delivered live
with Image and Sound. We are in direct
contact (Visual and Audio) throughout the whole lesson for delivery and error
correction. There is no difference with private lessons at home, where the
tutor is right by your side to provide explanations and corrections.
The lesson
is realised via Video Call and not by using an impersonal computer programme.
Additionally, there is the possibility of recording
the lesson on your computer to revise later. Each course employs the most
contemporary learning material available (books, CDs etc.). All the tutors are
highly experienced and specialised.
Online
Courses – Advantages
·
It
is not necessary for you to leave home, thus saving both time and money.
·
Most
of the learning material is provided free of charge and in electronic format.
·
There
is the option of scheduling the days and times of the lessons according to your
own needs, without having to follow the specific schedule of a language school.
We started
the online courses in 2006, using several popular applications, such as skype,
msn etc. We continue with excellent results and an upward course, taking
advantage of new, pioneering technologies such as the Team Viewer. Today, we
provide our own electronic platform for distance learning. We created the first
website in Greece
to innovate and implement online courses via the Internet (individually or in
small groups) for so many different
fields. We collaborate with experienced tutors in foreign languages,
computers and many other fields.

The examination

The examination takes place regularly (every 10-15 days), in Athens
and other cities in Greece ,
during the whole year.
→ TOEFL course
The online TOEFL (Test οf English as a Foreign Language) lessons help you acquire the TOEFL certificate in
a short time and with a low cost. Thanks to our tutors’ support, you can attend
the online TOEFL lessons via the Internet and prepare for the examination.
The full
educational course for adults wishing to receive the TOEFL certificate covers 100 hours
(5 weeks) and includes 50 teaching
sessions and 50 hours of
computer-based tests. The course costs 240€.
The required fee to participate in the examination is 225€. To reserve a place, upon submitting the application, the

The examination lasts about 4 hours. All sections (except writing) comprise
multiple choice questions exclusively. The examination takes place almost every
10-15 days during the whole year and the results are announced after 15 days.
→ UKCAT
course
UKCAT (UK Clinical Aptitude Test) lessons are needed in case you want to
study Medicine or Dentistry abroad.
The UKCAT assists universities in selecting among the many well-trained
applicants for medical and dental programmes. It helps ensure that all
candidates chosen are equipped with the necessary critical skills and
professional attitude required of new doctors and dentists so that they lead a
successful career.
The UKCAT does not include a specific curriculum or a particular
scientific content. It focuses on evaluating the candidates’ mental skills as
well as other qualifications.
The examination is computer-based and it is held in specific examination
centres in Athens .
It is taken by appointment from the beginning of July until early October each
year. Each examinee is asked a different set of questions out of a vast collection
of possible options via computer, so the examination can take place at
different times. Even though the questions differ, the resulting score theoretically
corresponds to identical sets of questions. Thus hundreds of candidates can
take the test using only 2-3 computers (at the specific examination centre in Athens ), which are
connected to the central system abroad. The test may be taken only once (there
is no possibility for re-examination) in summer or in autumn, before submitting
the UCAS applications for entrance in British universities.
Performance in the UKCAT is important, since it is taken into account
together with all other qualifications. Given that demand for a place in
British medical schools is higher than the current supply, many of the
candidates are unfortunately rejected. The reason why a candidate does not
receive a place is often the low or mediocre score in the UKCAT.
→ GMAT course
The GMAT (Graduate Management Admission Test) course is ideal in case you
want to study Finance (e.g. MBA). The best way to acquire this certificate is

solution.
The basic preparation course includes 50 hours (5 weeks) and it
costs 290€. Upon submission of the application to reserve a place in the
course, the candidate is to deposit 50€ as a registration fee plus an
advance of 50€.
The fee for the GMAT examination is 307.5$ (250$ + VAT). The fee is
charged in dollars on a credit card and the bank converts the sum in euros,
based on the respective exchange rate that applies on that day.
The GMAT offers a consistent and objective measurement of one’s skills,
besides the requirements of application for the candidate. The examination is
computer-based and it is realised in particular examination centres and under
the same conditions worldwide, ensuring maximum security, so that all scores
are comparable for all candidates.
The GMAT is a standard examination for the English language, designed to
test one’s verbal, mathematical and analytical skills in written discourse,
which the candidates have developed during their entire educational and
professional career. The GMAT does not take account of knowledge in business
management, professional qualifications or other knowledge in a particular
field; it focuses on general skills in logic and critical thinking.

days, during the whole year. Results are announced promptly and they are

The examination for the certification in Turkish is held by the University of Ankara TÖMER. There are
three levels: Temel, Orta and Yüksek.
TÖMER:
Basic
Level (Temel Seviye)
In this level, students familiarise with the Turkish language. In
addition, they gain knowledge about the lifestyle in contemporary Turkey and they
come into contact with its culture. Besides the alphabet, students are taught
basic grammar structures and a significant volume of vocabulary. The main goal
is for students to be able to understand and participate in various everyday
situations (salutations, introductions, telephone conversations, transactions in
shops etc.). There are two different levels for the Temel certificate. The
Temel 2 (KATILIM BELGESİ), which corresponds to the level A1 of the Common
European Framework of Reference, and the Temel 4 (SERTİFİKA), which corresponds
to the level A2 of the Common European Framework of Reference.
Intermediate
Level (Orta Seviye)
The lessons in this level comprise more complex structures in grammar and
syntax. At the same time, the students’ vocabulary is enriched, idiomatic
expressions are taught and expression in written discourse is enhanced. The aim
is for the student to be able to compose short, simple texts (short descriptive
essays) and adequately comprehend articles in magazines and newspapers. Last,
in oral discourse, it is expected of students to be able to communicate
fluently in more complex situations of everyday life (transactions in services,
use of transport, conversations in hotels, shops, restaurants etc.). The Orta 4
certificate (SERTİFİKA) corresponds to the level B1 of the Common European Framework
of Reference.
Advanced
Level (Yüksek Seviye)
In this level, students perfect their language skills in Turkish. The aim
is to further enrich the students’ vocabulary, improve their accent, and teach
them more complex grammatical and syntactical phenomena. At the end of this
course, students are able to express their opinion on various issues. They can
also comprehend more complex texts (from literature, the press, science, sports
etc.). The Yüksek Seviye is also divided in two levels; the Yüksek 2 (SERTİFİKA)
corresponds to the level B2 of the Common European Framework of Reference,
while the level Yüksek 4 (DİPLOM) corresponds to the level C1 of the Common
European Framework of Reference.
