About Our Academics
1. Block System
We utilize a block system that allows students to focus on 2-3 courses at a time. This model ensures greater flexibility, reduces stress and screen time, and maximizes student learning by reducing the typical overload of taking all courses at once.

2. Bi-Weekly Synchronous Class Sessions
We believe in the power of synchronous learning in a small group setting. Each class contains no more than five students, which ensures personalized attention and a highly interactive educational experience. This small class size fosters a closer connection between students and instructors, enhancing engagement and support, which are essential to maximizing student learning.
3. Asynchronous Course Material
Prestans Online Academy offers rich asynchronous course materials to complement our synchronous sessions. These resources are carefully curated on Canvas LMS to deepen understanding and reinforce the concepts discussed during live classes. This dual approach ensures students have the flexibility to learn at their own pace while benefiting from the structure and real-time feedback of synchronous education.
