We ensure confidentiality for students who choose KIV course. If you are not willing to disclose your personal data when registering for the course, it is not required.
If you have tried different language courses, but were not satisfied with them because they lacked flexibility or did not accommodate your needs appropriately, AKS English language courses for executives will surely be your best investment in improving your language skills. It is a purposeful and versatile course conducted by a Lithuanian-speaking specialist and a foreign assistant (during the monthly meetings).
KIV can be taught at all levels from A1 to C2. Its curriculum is adapted to the goal chart you are asked to complete before the course. Homework is a mandatory part of KIV courses. It is not provided to individuals who openly manifest little motivation to learn and intend to study only because they “have to", not because they really want to.
In Lithuanian KIV stands for Kursai Įmonių Vadovams, while in English it means Keep In View. This course is our commitment to keeping your linguistic progress under control and encouraging you to move forward together with AKS teachers.
