Multiple training sessions available throughout the year
Before joining a session, each participant undergoes a short placement test and an individual interview with an instructor.
This enables us to integrate you into a group that genuinely corresponds to your proficiency level, thereby ensuring effective, consistent, and motivating learning for all participants.
Courses are organized as 3-hour group sessions, scheduled throughout the month.
The themes, required proficiency levels, and educational objectives for each session are published on the Hexagone calendar.
Participants register freely for the slots of their choice, according to their availability and objectives.
Each session is led by an English-speaking or perfectly bilingual instructor.
The 3-hour course is structured around interactive activities:
oral practice, role-playing, educational games, comprehension exercises, thematic vocabulary, grammatical reinforcement, and group exercises.
The collaborative format promotes expression, mutual assistance, and dynamic learning.
After each session, supplementary resources may be provided:
vocabulary lists, audio materials, oral expression exercises, key grammar sheets, or consolidation activities.
This work reinforces your progress and prepares you for the next session when you enroll in a new course.
Even in a group setting, each participant receives individual monitoring:
the instructor observes your progress, identifies areas for improvement, and advises you on the most suitable topics or sessions for your level.
If necessary, personalized recommendations may be provided (specific exercises, additional resources, or guidance towards a more suitable group).
Regularly, an assessment is offered to review your progress, acquired competencies, and remaining objectives.
This assessment allows for evaluating your progression and guiding your path:
continuation of group sessions, individual reinforcement, TOEIC preparation, FCL055, or Aviation English.
