FAQ
- In this course, you learn much faster.
- By paying, you are more serious about your work - you want to get the results you expect.
- By signing up for a free course you have a "blurred" goal - you do not clearly understand what it is for you.
- On free courses, nothing (and no one) will motivate you to work on your homework.
- After free courses most often the result is deplorable (ask those who finished them). On our course you get a guaranteed result - a solid basis for further learning Estonian.
- Clear motivation - you see it working. Day by day your Estonian is getting better. So there is motivation to keep moving forward.
- The best specialists - all teachers at our school have been competitively selected to teach using this method and pass qualification exams every year.
- "Insurance against loss of time, effort and money - 10 weeks is enough to start speaking Estonian more or less. What other courses can offer this?
97 out of 100 of our listeners are already doing it. Why don't you try your hand at it too?
It is very good that you have "some base". This base is called passive vocabulary.
With "some base" of passive vocabulary, you have more options.
Namely:
With "some base" of passive vocabulary, you have more options.
Namely:
- You can join a group that is already learning and gaining vocabulary for the time being (at most by the fifth lesson from the start of a suitable group).
- You can sign up for an individual course. It is just for those who do not have time to do their homework at home, who speak little and want to increase their active vocabulary (more than 1000 words!) and learn to build sentences easily.
In this case, there are options:
- If you can't attend the classes that you can't attend in your group, you can take them in a parallel group that starts close to your date;
- to take missed classes individually at a convenient time for a separate cost, which is much less than at our schools-colleagues in Tallinn: one individual class for our students costs 35 euros (for three hours!);
- choose the course variant where you take half of the lessons in a group and the other half individually (1150 euros);
- choose the individual format of the whole course for only 1980 euros (in other schools it costs much more and takes much longer to learn in a group from scratch).
And such an opinion happens. Such an opinion is a prime example of a limiting belief. Many people don't realize what drives them. And in fact, we are all driven (and shape our outcomes) by our beliefs - persistent habits of believing or not believing in ourselves. They come in the form of promoting and limiting beliefs. Limiting beliefs limit belief in ourselves!
