“I love the placement tests in Off2Class. It shows the students' level and where they need help the most. I love that it targets all four skills: listening, reading, writing, and speaking. I also love the homework and assessment section. Honestly, I love everything about this program, and I use it as my primary curriculum!”
“I have been using Off2Class as the basis of my lessons since 2015 – initially face-to-face with my students, but now online. I love the simplicity of both of us logging in and following the format of a given lesson, with homework as an option as well.”
"Not only have we seen a jump in our ELs' ACCESS scores, the staff is friendly and wonderful to work with!"
“I'm from the UK and now live in Slovakia. I've been using Off2Class for around 10 years, more or less since I started online teaching. I liked what I saw in the early days, and appreciated the time it saved me with planning and preparation. I've seen it grow considerably in that time and I'm really looking forward to it continuing into the future. The lessons provide a full package for students of all ages and levels, which is perfect for me, as my student base is many and varied.”
