Akademeia Prep Courses

Each academic session involves eight weeks of lessons and are designed as modules that can be completed individually or combined for more in-depth study. Led by our own faculty staff, familiar both with the principles that underpin our approach to learning and the common challenges students come up against when they join Akademeia, the Preparatory Courses furnish participants with some of the key knowledge and academic skills necessary to embark on successful academic careers.

In the 2021/2022 school year, several sessions of Courses are planned. Participants of the first session can take part in the next ones, because each session is prepared as a separate whole.

The first session of Prep Courses is scheduled for:

04 -22.10.2021 – 3 weeks

25–29.10.2021 – break (no classes)

01–05.11.2021 – 1 week

08–12.11.2021 – break (no classes)

15.11–17.12.2021 – 4 tweeks

The second session of Prep Courses is scheduled for:

28.02- 04.03.2022 – break (no classes)

07.03-18.03.2022 – 2 weeks

English for Academic Purposes

The English for Academic Purposes Course is an ideal way to experience Akademeia’s first-class approach to learning for the first time. This exclusively designed online course is geared towards students between the ages of 12-14 who will benefit from two lessons of 1.5 hours each week for the duration of the course.  

Offered at two levels, depending on the existing language skills of each student, both syllabuses will prime participants though the same overriding dual focus: addressing the most common language mistakes we know hold students back when they come to our School, as well as equipping learners with the necessary skills and strategies to succeed in demanding educational contexts. Key elements of the English language, combining both structural and lexical focusses, will provide students with the foundations necessary to successfully complete many of the same academic assignments required of our term-time students, such as research skills, essay writing, presentation delivery and interacting with different texts.

Led by our own highly experienced team of teachers, our evening course is adapted to an online mode of learning and is the perfect preparatory course for students considering applying to Akademeia full-time at any entry point.

Mathematics

The Preparatory Mathematics Course is intended to provide a necessary foundation for success in an academic mathematics pathway. Split into two age groups, the course is designed for participants currently attending year 8 (grade 7 in the Polish and American systems) or year 9.

The Year 10 entry course is aligned to meet iGCSE content standards and mathematical practices, with the Year 9 entry course also carefully adapted to the age and experience of its participants. Students will be provided with the opportunity to learn a variety of mathematical processes, including problem solving, communicating and mathematical reasoning. They will be taught how to make connections between the subject and its applications, become mathematically literate, and to appreciate and value mathematics while making informed decisions as contributors to wider society.

A good, strong foundation in these areas of mathematics is necessary for success in future mathematics courses and this course will help students further understand, appreciate and enjoy maths so they are in a prime position to both study at Akademeia and develop a life-long affinity with the subject.

Led by our own experienced mathematics teachers, our evening course is adapted to an online mode of learning. This course will help students further understand, appreciate, and enjoy maths so that they can be ready for full-time study in Akademeia.
