Obvious advantages of online learning include:
- intensive and focused learning by phone
- chance to record each session, enabling unlimited repetition and review (Pamela Recorder
 )
- speaking and listening tested simultaneously and intensively
- a real learning situation, on the telephone and at the computer
- no need to travel - saves both time and money
- more flexibility regarding course time - any time between 7:30 and 21:30
- continuity of teaching, even when travelling (many of our clients take advantage of this opportunity and rate it highly)
This is why learning languages via Skype is very different to other types of "Web-based Training", self-study computer-based programs and online group instruction. This course offers constant interaction with a trainer, rather than an artificial recording, and it is this interaction that we believe to be the motivating and driving force in language learning. CDs and other learning programs can, however, provide good preparation and support for an online learning course. Please let us know if you are currently learning with a CD or German language program. We can then make arrangements to integrate this material into the course.
