Hi teachers,
Could you help me with these sentences?
Which one is better for classes with students?
a) Face to face hours.
b) Presential hours.
Could you help me with these sentences?
Which one is better for classes where I give the students some pages for homework? I do have to specify 'hours', some kind of legal matter.
a) Distant hours.
b) Homework hours.
Are these appropriate titles?
a) Beginners English Course.
b) Intermediate English Course.
What about this one? It is for people who don't know about the English language yet.
Can it be better?
Objectives: Acquire English knowledge.
This one is for people who already have an intermediate level of English. Can it be better?
Objectives: Expand English knowledge.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
They are for English classes, for a company where I'm going to teach English. They want them in English, so it is hard for me to translate them from Spanish to English. That's why I've asked for help.
Thanks
For the first, in-person instruction.
But for the second, how do you know how long the student will take to complete an assignment? I don't see how you can specify how many hours of homework they will have.
I'm not a teacher, but I write for a living. Please don't ask me about 2nd conditionals, but I'm a safe bet for what reads well in (American) English.
Hi,

I don't. I've asked the company the same question. But they said they need that.![]()
I read "I do have to specify 'hours', some kind of legal matter." as meaning the word "hours" has to be included, not necessarily the number of hours.
[not a teacher]
I'd never heard of the word "presential" before. I'd say it is not typical in AmE.
I'm used to seeing:
classroom hours (for all-student instruction)
office hours (for one-on-one after class instruction)
homework [hours] (for at home self-study - hours works here, but it's not typical in AmE)
study hall [hours] (for in school self-study - same here)
"I tried to complete the assignment during classroom hours, then again during office hours with my teacher, and I finished a lot during studyhall, but the rest was done as homework."
Hi,
Should I assume that these ones are correct then?
Are these appropriate titles?
a) Beginners English Course.
b) Intermediate English Course.
