CAMBRIDGE PROGRAM
Our experience since 2020: the ‘MIXED CLASS’ concept
For our small group programmes, because our goal is to guarantee the continuity, flexibility and quality of our training courses, we have implemented the following solution:
The course is taught by our trainer at ALFMED in the multimedia lab (equipped with a large screen and a webcam + microphone). Students can be in class OR participate remotely (with their PC/webcam/microphone). The trainer shares their screen and digital whiteboard with students on a large screen.
Advantage: complete flexibility whatever the circumstances (students can choose to come to ALFMED or follow the course remotely). The teaching environment is recreated thanks to the large screen, facilitating interaction and practice, whether from home or at ALFMED.
Since 2014 we have been preparing 150 candidates a year for Cambridge diplomas… and it works! We offer a “CAMBRIDGE YLE” program for Primary and Middle School students!
- These programs are provided by native and qualified trainers
- Cambridge pedagogy, playful and adapted supports
- To respect the pace of our students, this program takes place outside school holidays.
Information meeting on Wednesday 27/08/2025
Registration open from 27/08/2025 to 28/10/2025
CAMBRIDGE ENGLISH LEVELS
WHY TAKE THE CAMBRIDGE EXAM ?
- Cambridge English Qualifications help you gradually improve your English through a fun, effective and rewarding method. Our English exams are based on research aimed at maximising teaching and learning effectiveness. They motivate learners of all ages and levels to improve their English and acquire practical skills for everyday life. Each exam is aligned with the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) to help learners develop their listening, speaking, reading and writing skills.
- These English language qualifications are specially designed for primary and secondary school pupils. They enable children and teenagers to improve their English and stay motivated by offering certificates that demonstrate their progress throughout their schooling.
