How do we teach English online?

Since March 2020, we have been adapting the way we teach online to provide our customers with engaging and memorable learning experiences. Below are some of the features that you can enjoy when studying with our experienced e-learning ESOL specialist teachers.

  • Online lessons are live in a virtual classroom with your teacher.
  • We plan our online lessons, just as we do for our face-to-face lessons, to have clear aims, objectives, meaningful context and interactive tasks.
  • We train our learners in the use of online videoconferencing tools for greater engagement and enjoyment.
  • We build rapport with our learners through virtual rewards.
  • We use a variety of techniques to keep learners motivated, such as visual aids, props, gestures, quizzes, polls, videos, audio activities and more.

Video conferencing disclaimer

English for Asia places the utmost care in protecting the privacy and security of students participating in online lessons. We use fully licensed video conferencing technology. Each lesson we hold online is Host activated from a registered English for Asia account, and only students that are registered on each respective course are permitted to join our online classes. Furthermore, we closely monitor student attendance in all classes (online or in person) to ensure the safety and academic integrity of our Online Learning through a Host. The assigned Host will restrict entry to unregistered students and may remove a participant who is unauthorized to enter the online classroom.
