CAMBRIDGE PROGRAM
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.
For our programs offered in small groups, because our objective is to be able to guarantee the continuity, flexibility and quality of our training, we have implemented the following solution:
The course is provided 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 his screen and his digital whiteboard with the students on the big screen
Advantage: complete flexibility whatever the circumstances (according to his choice the student comes to ALFMED or follows the course remotely). The educational environment is recreated thanks to the big screen: facilitating interaction and practice, from home or at ALFMED.
