Complete Immersion Homestudy student programs are monitored through resident regional organizers. These regional organizers gauge the progress of each student and are on call to solve any personal problems that any students might have. If for any reason the student wishes to change the teaching family no reasons need be given.
It is sufficient to say 'I do not feel comfortable' or ' I do not feel happy'. In this way, the family will be swiftly changed with no embarrassment on either side, as all teachers know that sometimes there can be a clash of personalities through no fault of either student or teacher.
The program is designed to combine grammar with conversation, reading and writing practice. The teaching methodology is fun, self-paced and ideally requires four to six weeks for students to develop basic communication skills.
Students are assessed and receive instruction at their appropriate level. Depending on the student's ability they will spend class time in any of the following activities:
Grammar Pronunciation and discussion Reading and writing skills Listening and comprehension Cultural awareness
Students often combine classes in the study city with independent weekend field trips to small towns where the target language is primarily spoken. The local school staff is happy to provide students with information to facilitate these visits.
