How we run our classes
NERRG Global Academy has one of the best online teaching platform for virtual learning. This is because Our Video Classes will provide you with “Real Classroom Experience” that allow you to engage with your teachers. We do have all types of interactive classroom options in the platform — such as hand raising, virtual ticks, file sharing, an interactive whiteboard, and text chat — make the platform appropriate for any class size.
Our evening virtual classes run all the way through the school year including half-terms and bank holidays. Teachers use the platform to communicate live with students online for 3 hours- lesson a week and that is 12 hours a month. Weekly lessons involve targeting specific topics and learning how to resolve problems surrounding those subject areas.
There are no entry requirements for the course and we accept enrolments anytime during the school year, as we go through the full syllabus multiple times a year. However, we prefer that students hold the B2 English certificate in order to understand the course better. This approach, makes sure that you are well prepared for any topic or question that comes your way. NERRG Global Academy encourages a greater appreciation for the learning process by placing it in a more understandable context. This leads to improvements in self-discipline, time-management, focus, goal orientation and motivation.
Our subject-specialists are professional, energetic and up-to-date with the current demands of a changing curriculum and the various Examination Boards and they help students improve their subject based skills, time management and exam preparation techniques. They also provide productive lessons in a supportive and friendly environment and an uplifting attitude that encourages remarkable results. For those not so keen on participating in a group setting, we do offer one-to one sessions. They can be scheduled at a time most convenient to you and your tutor.
Our classes aim to resolve areas of confusion and bring students up to a comfortable level which allows them to achieve vital academic goals. We do this by providing relevant materials to improve our student’s abilities effectively. They are made available to students after every lesson, including all notes produced in class. We also help build confidence, make good progress, and cope better with exams while enjoying learning. Students will be able also to see and interact with their tutor in real time and in the comfort of your own home.
Homework
We focus only on past papers, to make sure all students are prepared for their exams in advance. By incorporating timed exercises and mock exam questions, we help students decrease the time it takes them to answer questions, which means that students will experience less stress and pressure when exam time comes. Our tutors keep track of all students' progress and make sure everyone is at the level they should be.

Great news! There are no entry requirements or age restrictions for the course however we prefer that students hold B2 English certificate to have a better understanding of the course.

In the OET, the scoring depends on the institution’s requirements. However usually, candidates receive numerical scores ranging from 0 to 500 in ten-point increments (e.g., 350, 360, 370, etc.). These numerical scores are then converted into separate letter grades for each section of the test, ranging from A (highest) to E (lowest). There is no overall grade provided; instead, candidates are assessed independently in each sub-test, including Listening, Reading, Writing, and Speaking. The letter grades reflect their performance in each specific section, offering a comprehensive evaluation of their language proficiency in a healthcare context.
