SAT Preparation
Led by a graduate of the Harvard Graduate School of Education (HGSE), this 10-week SAT Preparation course combines expert instruction with four full-length digital SAT simulations and two one-on-one review sessions. Students are placed into Standard or Honors sections after an initial diagnostic test and receive an individualized study plan built around their target score and application timeline.
- Audience: Grades 10 to 11 (ages 15 to 17), applying to US or SAT-accepting European universities
- Group size: Maximum 10 students
- Duration: 10 weeks — 40 hours of class time plus 4 full-length simulations and 2 individual review sessions
- Price: €720
Debate Club — American Format
Taught by an experienced leader from Romania's national debate, public speaking and rhetoric community, this club introduces students to Public Forum and Lincoln-Douglas debate — the formats most recognized by US university admissions officers. Each module builds argumentation, research and public speaking skills, and closes with an in-house tournament.

- Duration: 2 modules, 14 weeks, once a week, ending in a tournament

English for Immigrants
Designed for Ukrainian and other immigrant communities in Romania, this course builds practical, spoken English for daily life, work and job-seeking. Taught by an instructor who made the same transition to Romania herself and speaks Ukrainian, Russian, Romanian and English fluently, students get real speaking practice in a small, supportive group.
- Audience: Adults and teens (14+) from Ukraine and other immigrant communities
- Group size: Maximum 10 students
- Duration: 8 weeks, 2 sessions of 2 hours per week (32 hours)
- Price: €300

Ideal for anyone who already reads and understands English well but wants to speak with real, natural confidence. Taught by an instructor with degrees from Texas State University and the University of Oxford.
- Audience: Teens and adults, B1 level and above
- Group size: Maximum 10 students
