How the training works
30 lessons of 2 academic hours. Classes are built on the principle: theory-practice
We manually check samples and homework.
We do not leave the written part assignments for self-testing - this is done by OGE experts.
We check “for real”, like in an exam, and as a result you receive detailed feedback. All this is for the sake of speed of preparation and your results.
A personal curator will answer questions within two hours, 24/7.
The curators understand the program and the subject, so they can easily answer your questions about the course and homework - at any time.
They know well how difficult it can be to prepare and understand your worries.
The most important task of a tutor is to help you cope with stress and fear before exams.
The lesson lasts 2 academic hours.
