At 3D ACADEMY, we understand that starting to learn English from scratch can feel overwhelming—even intimidating. You might be thinking:
“I haven’t studied English since high school…”
“I can’t understand movies or TV shows in English…”
“I feel nervous just saying ‘Hello’ in English…”
If any of this sounds like you, you’re not alone. In fact, many of our students begin their journey with little or no experience using English in real-life situations. Some have only learned English through textbooks; others never had the chance to use it in conversation. Some students even tell us they were too shy to speak a single word on their first day.
And that’s perfectly okay.
We specialize in helping learners just like you. Our programs are designed from the ground up to support true beginners—not just in language, but also in building confidence, motivation, and communication habits.
Over the years, we’ve welcomed thousands of beginner-level students from countries such as Japan, Korea, Vietnam, Taiwan, Thailand, and Mongolia, as well as regions like South America and Africa. No matter your background or age, you’ll find that 3D ACADEMY is a safe and supportive place to begin your English journey.
Whether you remember just a few English words from your school days, or you’re learning for the very first time, we believe in your ability to grow. And more importantly, we’ve seen it happen again and again—students who arrive with zero confidence, and leave with the ability to express themselves in English.
Our teaching system is built to help you improve step by step, with encouragement, care, and the right pace for your needs. Your starting point doesn’t matter. What matters is that you start—and we’re here to walk with you from that very first word.
At 3D ACADEMY, every student receives personalized one-on-one classes as the foundation of their daily schedule. This is especially beneficial for beginners—perhaps the single most important reason why our school is so beginner-friendly.
In traditional group settings, many students feel pressured to keep up with classmates who may be more advanced. It’s easy to get lost, stay silent, or hesitate to ask questions. But in a one-on-one environment, none of that pressure exists.
Instead, everything about the class—the content, the pace, the teaching style, and even the materials—can be adjusted just for you.
Your teacher can:
Speak slowly and clearly to match your listening level
Use simple, beginner-friendly vocabulary
Choose topics that are relevant to your interests or daily needs
Focus on your weakest areas without embarrassment
Provide step-by-step explanations with real examples
Pause anytime for clarification or extra practice
Repeat key expressions until you feel confident
Offer gentle corrections that build confidence, not fear
This kind of customized attention is ideal for learning:
Basic greetings and small talk
Self-introduction practice
Asking and answering simple questions
Pronunciation and listening skills
Survival English for restaurants, shopping, and transportation
For example, in your first class, you might practice a simple exchange like:
“Hi, my name is Keiko. I’m from Japan. Nice to meet you.”
“What do you like to do in your free time?”
“I like watching movies.”
Your teacher can repeat this exchange as many times as you need, add new vocabulary, or even help you write it down and memorize it. You don’t need to worry about “slowing down the class”—because the class moves with you.
Many students say that one-on-one lessons at 3D ACADEMY are the first time they’ve felt truly comfortable asking questions in English. There’s no fear of judgment, no competition—just learning in a safe, supportive environment where you can grow at your own speed.
We believe that language learning should feel natural and encouraging, not stressful or frustrating. That’s why our one-on-one system is so effective—because you are the center of every class, and we move at your pace, not the textbook’s.
Our instructors at 3D ACADEMY are not only friendly and approachable—they are also specially trained to support absolute beginners.
We understand that for many students, learning English in a full-English environment for the first time can feel intimidating. That’s why our teachers are equipped with a range of easy-to-understand communication techniques to help students feel comfortable and supported, even without Japanese or other native-language assistance.
Here are some key methods we use in class:
Visual aids and gestures to make meanings instantly clear
Step-by-step instructions that break down each phrase or sentence
Situational role-plays such as restaurants, shopping, airport check-in, or daily conversations
Simple drawings or props for vocabulary building (e.g., pointing, miming, flashcards)
Constant encouragement to help students build confidence and speak without fear
Positive reinforcement when students try, even if they make mistakes
For example, if you’re learning how to order food in English, your teacher might first show a menu image, then model the conversation:
“I’d like a chicken sandwich, please.”
— Followed by: “Now you try!”
We’ll practice together again and again until it feels natural.
Most of our beginner students start by learning how to introduce themselves, talk about their hobbies, or describe their hometown. Within just a few weeks, many are surprised by how much they can say. They begin to participate in short conversations, answer basic questions, and even ask questions confidently in class.
Our goal is not just to teach grammar or vocabulary—it’s to help you feel safe, understood, and motivated to keep learning. That’s what makes our teaching style different—and especially powerful for beginners.
One of the biggest reasons beginners hesitate to speak English is the fear of making mistakes. Many students worry about using the wrong word, pronouncing things incorrectly, or sounding “silly” in front of others. But at 3D ACADEMY, we want you to know that making mistakes is not just okay—it’s essential.
That’s how real learning happens.
From your very first day, our teachers encourage you to try, even if you’re not sure. You might get the sentence wrong. You might forget a word. But every time you try again, you grow. And we’re here to support you, not to correct you harshly or make you feel ashamed.
Our classrooms are judgment-free zones where it’s safe to speak, make errors, ask questions, and try again. You don’t have to get everything right. You just have to be willing to speak. Even saying “I don’t understand” is a valuable step forward.
Every small win counts—whether it’s remembering how to say “Nice to meet you,” or successfully ordering your lunch in English. These moments build your confidence, and that confidence is the true foundation of communication.
Located in the heart of Cebu City, our campus offers a warm, welcoming, and relaxed atmosphere—a perfect match for students who are new to learning English.
We don’t believe in putting pressure on students with strict tests, rankings, or fast-paced lessons. Instead, we create a space where you can:
Learn at your own speed without comparison
Ask as many questions as you like, even basic ones
Choose beginner-friendly textbooks or even start with speaking-focused lessons only
Practice English in daily life, not just in class
Whether you’re chatting with your teacher, ordering food in the cafeteria, or joining a weekend trip, you’ll find opportunities to use simple English naturally and enjoyably.
Many of your fellow students will also be beginners—some from Japan, Korea, Taiwan, and other Asian countries. You’ll quickly realize that everyone is learning together, and that shared experience creates a friendly and supportive community.
Even during breaks or meals, you’ll find classmates practicing phrases, laughing at their own mistakes, and cheering each other on. It’s more than a classroom—it’s a safe learning environment where beginners can truly thrive.
The best proof of our beginner-friendly system is the students themselves. Here are just a few real voices from those who started exactly where you are now:
“I couldn’t speak at all on my first day. But after 4 weeks, I was able to order food, take a taxi, and even introduce myself in English!”
— Student from Japan
“I was nervous at first, but the teacher spoke slowly and repeated things for me. I never felt embarrassed. I actually started to enjoy speaking.”
— Student from Korea
“One-on-one classes helped me ask questions freely. I felt safe and motivated to keep going. I used to freeze when I heard English, but now I can respond.”
— Student from Taiwan
These are not unusual cases. Many students arrive with zero confidence, and in just a few weeks, they’re speaking simple English in class and in daily life.
You don’t have to be perfect. You just have to start.
If you’re a beginner wondering whether you can really study abroad in English—the answer is yes, you can. And not just that—you can enjoy it, too.
At 3D ACADEMY, we’ve helped hundreds of students just like you speak their first full sentences, have their first English conversation, and take the first real steps toward global communication.
Whether your goal is to travel confidently, use English in your job, or simply overcome your fear of speaking, this is the perfect place to begin.
We don’t expect perfection—we only expect you to be willing. Take that first step. We’ll be with you every step of the way.
