MY BUDDY TEACHER!
WARM SUPPORT FOR OUR PHILINTER LIFE!

In 2005, PHILINTER ACADEMY introduced the BUDDY TEACHER SYSTEM, which was the first of its kind among ESL language schools. The buddy teacher was introduced to support the students’ safe stay and quick adaptation to life abroad amid the unstable social infrastructure of that time.

The BUDDY TEACHER system has been highly appreciated by the students and many schools in the Philippines are interested in learning it.

Now, PHILINTER’s BUDDY TEACHER system is being upgraded to the next level, with a focus on:

  • Managing students’ academic achievements
  • Ensuring the satisfaction of all teachers,
  • and Supporting students’ adaptation to their study abroad life

You chose PHILINTER because you wanted to benefit from a more advanced education program. Therefore, your BUDDY TEACHER will support you throughout your studies, helping you achieve your academic goals and grades.

What is ESL Evening Program?

Recognizing the crucial role of effective study habits and comprehensive after-class support in determining language proficiency success, Philinter offers the ESL Evening Program as an integral component of its Intensive ESL Curriculum.

  • Mandatory 2-hour program
  • Monday to Thursday (19:00 to 21:00)
  • Provides guided self-study to assist students in completing their homework, previewing lessons, practicing their language skills, and other after-class tasks.

FAQ

WHAT TEXTBOOKS DO PHILINTER USE?

We maintain a regularly updated list of textbooks for the following courses:

  • ESL (Adult)
  • ESL (Junior, 12-15 yrs.)
  • ESL (Primary, 7-11 yrs.)
  • IELTS
  • TOEIC
  • Business
  • TOEFL
  • Cambridge

Please note that textbooks for certain courses such as IELTS, Business, and Cambridge are only accessible through our PARTNER AGENT. However, the list of textbooks for other courses is open to all.

IS IT POSSIBLE TO CHOOSE 2 COURSES?

Absolutely! You have the option to choose multiple courses, including 2 or 3 courses.

However, we recommend consulting with us to determine the recommended order of courses and the ideal duration of study based on your individual needs.

HOW FAST CAN I IMPROVE MY SCORE IF I ENROLL IN THE TOEIC COURSE?

The rate at which you can improve your TOEIC score varies depending on your current level of English proficiency. Here’s an estimate of score improvement based on different starting levels:

  • If your English level is below 450 in TOEIC, you can anticipate an improvement of approximately 150-200 points per 4 weeks.
  • If your English level is below 600 in TOEIC, you can expect to improve your score by 100 to 150 points per 4 weeks.
  • For those with a score of 750 points and above, the rate of score improvement may be reduced.

On average, beginners or those with English proficiency below 450 can achieve a TOEIC score of 850 within approximately 12 weeks of dedicated study and practice.

HOW LONG IS THE STUDY PERIOD FROM IELTS 5.5 TO IELTS 7.0?

The study period to improve from IELTS 5.5 to IELTS 7.0 typically takes around 24 weeks when taking the IELTS Intensive course.
Here is the breakdown:

  • First 12 weeks to improve from 5.5 to 6.5
  • Then even another 12 weeks to improve from 6.5 to 7.0.

However, if you opt to choose the IELTS Score Guarantee, the total study duration can be reduced to 16 – 20 weeks.

For more information on academic progress and detailed course options, please consult with us.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF IELTS SCORE GUARANTEE?

The IELTS Score Guarantee Course at PHILINTER is designed to facilitate the achievement of the maximum score in a short timeframe.

Typically, it takes 24 to 32 weeks of learning for an English beginner to attain an IELTS score of 6.5. However, with our IELTS Score Guarantee Course, this score can be achieved in 24 weeks or even less.

PHILINTER’s IELTS SCORE GUARANTEE is designed to help students reach their target score quickly and effectively. In the event that the guaranteed score is not attained, free tuition fee for a specific number of weeks after the study period will be offered.

Please note that cooperation and consent for the school’s academic management are required to ensure students can fully benefit from our program.
