60 minutes per class

Eight learning days each include four 60-minute 1 on 1 lessons. Four of those days also include one 60-minute formal group class: 32 individual + 4 group hours, 36 classroom hours per student. Groups target 6–8 learners, arranged by age and level. Experiences are counted separately.

Individual learning, shared experiences

English for children

Every child joins the English program. Arrival assessment and level grouping help place the learner before dedicated 1 on 1 lessons begin, while teacher-led group classes give them a reason to listen, respond and collaborate in English.

Under-15s must travel with a parent. From age 15, learners may travel with people they already know. Enrolment parties and accommodation are never pooled with strangers; formal group classes are arranged by age and level.

Teenage and adult learners

Teenage and adult learners receive four one-hour individual lessons on each learning day, with lessons arranged for their level. Formal group classes are arranged by age and level and may include learners from other travelling parties.

Group participation is arranged around level and the activity. A parent and child may sometimes share a suitable group class, but a fixed mixed-family group is not promised.

Be part of the trip, without the lessons.

Parents may join without taking individual English lessons. They do not need to sit beside their child in class; families can conveniently reunite in the same S Resort building afterward. Shared meals, family time and included activities bring everyone together.

1 on 1 lessons meet the learner where they are

A private lesson gives the student room to ask, repeat and extend an answer without competing for airtime. Children and studying parents receive separately arranged lessons, so a family does not have to share one pace or one lesson focus.

Group classes turn language into participation

Formal group classes practise listening, speaking and practical vocabulary through the daily themes. Cooking, sports, island outings and evenings offer additional English practice outside the 4 formal group hours.

Useful language, personal conversations.

Learning focuses on listening, speaking and practical vocabulary. Contact the Academy for the materials and learning content used for your intake.

Everyday conversation

Practise introducing yourself, asking questions and talking about familiar subjects.

Words in context

Explore vocabulary through topics such as food, travel and daily life.

Expressing ideas

Describe an experience, share a preference or explain a simple idea in English.

Begin with the learner in front of us

The program does not assume that age tells the whole story. An arrival assessment helps teachers understand how each student currently listens and speaks, then level grouping shapes the starting arrangement. Teachers are strictly screened before joining the Academy team.

Assessment before the first full learning day

Day 1 includes arrival, settling in and an initial English assessment. The assessment informs individual lesson planning and group placement; it is not an exam result or a guarantee of a particular level.

A teacher selected for the role

Teachers are selected through a rigorous screening process. The Academy teaching areas are complete. Private 1 on 1 classrooms, group-learning spaces and guest rooms are in the same elevator-served S Resort building. Group classes use the rooftop or other indoor classrooms according to the class arrangement.
