- Address issues for lower-level learners and those with literacy issues,
- Integrate low-level technology in your lessons
Our Commitment
We know there is no one-size-fits-all approach to learning, and your success is our primary objective. We offer learner-friendly delivery modes which mean we have various options to suit your schedule and learning preference. We will complete a bespoke learning plan determining your journey on the programme, lasting a maximum of 6 months. Course delivery includes five one-to-one online coaching sessions and targetted learning activities in small groups.
