FAQs

How does Kaplan’s Online English School work?

The concept of Kaplan Online English is quite simple: you get in-school-quality tuition from the comfort of your own home! Once you’ve decided what online course you would like to join, you’ll take classes via Zoom and hosted through a learning management system (LMS), where you can enjoy a range of virtual language tasks with our accredited Kaplan teachers, as well as benefit from additional learning materials and interactive coursebooks. If at any point you would like to ask a question, or feel you need further clarification, you can interact with the teachers in real-time and receive live feedback, just like you would in a physical school. 

What are the online social activities?

In addition to your classes, you’ll also have the opportunity to take part in fun social activities online daily. Ranging from light-hearted quizzes to interactive games, these activities are entirely optional, however, they will allow you to further practice your English skills outside of lessons, as well as help you form connections with your classmates. 

Do I need a high English level to study online?

The answer to this depends on what course you choose. Kaplan Online English 123 is open to students from Elementary to Advanced.  Unfortunately, these courses are not suitable for Beginners.  Proficiency students can benefit from these courses, however we recommend they take part in a trial first. 

However, our IELTS Preparation course requires you to be at an Intermediate level before joining to get the most out of the classes. 

Do I need to book a specific length of course?

Most of the courses range from 1-52 weeks, so you can choose how long you want to learn depending on your language goals.   

Our IELTS Preparation course, however, only runs from 1-24 weeks. 

Can I change the time I study after I’ve booked?

Of course! Our minimum booking is one week, but if you decide you would like to study for more weeks or less (providing it’s still more than one) our student advisors will be more than happy to help arrange that for you. 

If you have booked a time slot for one time and would like to change, for example, from the evening in your country to a time in the morning or afternoon, you will be able to move on a weekly basis subject to availability. 

What is the timetable like?
