Yes, as long as you and your friend are at a similar language level. After placement testing, you can request to be in the same group, and we’ll do our best to accommodate.

Group courses follow a fixed schedule: typically 60 hours over 20 weeks (e.g., 2–3 hours per week). This consistency helps you build steady progress while fitting learning into your routine.

You’ll take part in group activities such as discussions, dialogues, and role-plays. Practicing with classmates not only reinforces what you learn but also builds your confidence in speaking with different people and styles of communication.
