At your own pace.

Students have to learn interactive lessons with IBI self-paced learning – eClasses before the beginning of IBI Live classroom training – eConversations to collaborate with real teachers and peers for discussion, learning activities (educational games, quizzes, board games, jeopardy, etc.) and team competition.
 
This process helps students to study reading, listening, writing, and pronunciation skills while they can write down questions related to their eClasses lessons, then get feedback 24/7 from the teachers in their own space or at least be prepared to ask these questions in their eConversations.
 
eClasses is designed based on the innovative combination of workbook and repetition method, which is not only educative, but also find them fun for students to learn!

In Class (live virtual classroom)

Inquiry based learning: Teachers are typically the central focus of lessons, facilitated by IBI live classroom – eConversations. They respond to students’ questions directly and at the same time, give them guidance and feedback. Through this process, teachers have the ability to differentiate instruction to personalize learning, while students work on problems. 

Furthermore, eConversations is the environment that helps students to practice and use the knowledge they have learned from eClasses efficiently and effectively.
