Close-Up B1
Close-Up B1 is an online English course for children and teenagers that builds on their language knowledge through interesting real-world topics. The system includes adapted articles and materials inspired by National Geographic, which let students practise the grammar and vocabulary they have learned while discovering more about people, nature, technology and the world around them.
The online lessons combine clear explanations from the teacher, interactive exercises, speaking practice, and work with texts, audio materials and videos. Students discuss different topics, express opinions, argue a position and gradually develop more confident and mature communication in English.
After completing Close-Up B1, students will be able to:
- read and understand adapted texts of around 600 words;
- work with a richer vocabulary and use words in the right context;
- use simple, continuous, perfect and perfect continuous tenses more confidently;
- recognise and use zero, first, second and third conditional sentences;
- use modal and semi-modal verbs in speech and writing;
- speak more freely on topics such as relationships, extreme situations, ecology, technology, society and everyday life;
- take part in discussions, share opinions and give arguments to support their position;
- write emails, articles, stories, essays, and formal and informal letters, taking into account the purpose, genre and appropriate tenses;
- listen to and extract the essential information from longer audio texts and conversations;
- understand the content and main ideas of educational films and answer questions about them.

Learning through real topics
The system develops not only language skills but also students' general knowledge, critical thinking and curiosity. The topics in the course give children the chance to look beyond the coursebook, discuss important issues and use English as a means of communicating and getting to know the world.
Close-Up B1 is a good choice for students who want to build on their knowledge and use English more confidently at school, as well as in everyday and more formal situations.

In our practice of over 23+ years, we have found that there are two types of people: those who learn from the language they know better and those who learn from the language that is new to them.

Our customers are our mirror. It is extremely important for us to receive sincere feedback about training with us.
Definitely the attitude of the teacher played a part, the teacher gave her all to help us learn the basics. She was quite understanding, explaining in detail. The material we took was very good. Thanks!
Everything was helpful - the explanations of the rules, the grammar exercises, the reading comprehension tests.
So far I am impressed with the patience, responsiveness, diligence, and attention I receive from our teacher. An exceptional teacher, I say this from the position of a teacher with over 30 years experience. A heartfelt thank you! I did not expect to have so much knowledge and develop my reading, speaking and writing skills in German after two weeks of training.
The most useful thing was that we communicated mainly in English, we had the opportunity to listen and practice speaking.
Very good teacher with a broken down teaching approach that met my expectations. I would continue my studies at a later stage.
I find the practical orientation very helpful, as well as all the supplementary materials the teacher provides.
