Teachers work from pre-assigned question sets as the basis for a guided conversation. Homework is selected through the system, which matches assignments to learners’ profiles. There is no lesson planning required, and you get to learn about life sciences and technology from experts in their fields — while they learn from you how to explain themselves confidently and comprehensibly in English.
