At Vorbiroo, we follow the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR), categorizing language proficiency into six levels: A1 to C2.
Each of our courses is carefully designed to cover 50 - 60 hours of instruction, representing a broadly defined half-level of proficiency. For example, our A1 level is divided into A1.1 and A1.2, offering a structured and comprehensive learning experience that aligns with the CEFR framework.
The same approach is applied to higher proficiency levels, such as A2.1 and A2.2, ensuring that learners progress through a systematic and well-defined language journey.

Quality over quantity is our priority at Vorbiroo.
Our class groups are intentionally small, with a maximum of 4 participants for both offline and online courses. This deliberate approach ensures a personalized learning experience, allowing for effective interaction and optimal comprehension. We strongly believe that smaller groups foster a more engaging and productive learning environment.
In addition to our regular courses, we also offer:
Storytelling practice courses — designed to improve conversational skills in a relaxed and interactive way, with up to 6 participants.
Citizenship preparation courses — focused on key language skills and cultural knowledge, with a maximum of 4 participants for focused guidance.
If you prefer a more individualized approach, our one-to-one lessons provide a cost-effective strategy, especially for those with urgent learning needs.

At Vorbiroo, our language courses are thoughtfully structured to enhance your learning journey.

The timeline for progress depends on your current proficiency level and objectives.
You'll likely notice improvement after just a few lessons, but it usually takes several months before you feel substantial progress. The speed and extent of your progress can vary due to individual learning rates, lesson frequency, and group size. For meaningful improvement, consistent attendance at weekly classes is essential. Completing regular homework assignments between classes also accelerates your language skill development, reinforcing what you've learned during lessons.
Many learners experience language acquisition in waves, with significant leaps in competence occurring every few months.
