It's that time again: The preparatory courses at Lern-Forum Zurich for long-term and short-term grammar schools as well as BMS, FMS, HMS and IMS are starting.
The students are already busy preparing for the entrance exams with our course instructors. With a lot of enthusiasm, topics relevant to the exams are repeated and essays are written. During the breaks, the first new friendships have already been made, which of course provides additional motivation to attend the course.
Nowadays, children and young people are often busy in many ways. Especially students who play a lot of sports have Saturday, often no time for a course visit, as tournaments are held regularly on this day.
The Lern-Forum therefore also offers preparation courses on Sundays. This way, hobbies and successful preparation for the entrance exam can be easily combined.
