Can I take classes on Sundays?

Can I take classes on Sundays?

At 3D ACADEMY, regular classes are scheduled from Monday to Friday. Saturdays and Sundays are typically set aside for rest, leisure activities, or travel. Therefore, we do not offer standard classes on Sundays. However, we understand that some students, especially those staying for only one or two weeks, want to make the most of their limited time. For this reason, we offer flexible options and learning opportunities even on weekends.

Why Are There No Regular Sunday Classes?

Our weekly schedule is designed to ensure a healthy balance between intensive study and rest. Most students take up to six or seven one-on-one classes per day during the week, which requires a lot of mental energy. The weekend break helps students recover, reflect on their learning, and stay motivated for the following week.

In addition, many teachers also use weekends to rest and prepare for the next week’s lessons. Maintaining this rhythm ensures consistent quality across all classes throughout your study period.

Special Consideration for Short-Term Students

That said, we know that students enrolled in short-term programs (1–2 weeks) often want to maximize every day they have. If you are taking the Power MTM 7 course—which includes seven one-on-one classes per day—you are already committing to an intensive study experience. But if you still want to add study time on Sunday, we may be able to arrange it.

Sunday lessons are not guaranteed but can be arranged upon special request. These private classes are subject to teacher availability and may include additional fees. We recommend you inform our admissions team of your request at the time of registration, so we can check availability and plan accordingly.

Other Ways to Learn on Sundays

Even without formal classes, many students continue learning through various engaging and meaningful activities on Sundays. Here are some great options to keep your English skills active:

  • Join a weekend school trip: Our weekend tours to places like Oslob, Moalboal, and Bohol are guided by English-speaking teachers. You’ll travel, interact, and communicate—all in English. These trips are a perfect combination of fun and language learning.
  • Practice with classmates: Our dormitories and common areas are full of international students. Spend time chatting, playing games, or watching movies together. Use English as your common language!
  • Self-study or review: Sundays are a great time to review your notes, do extra workbook practice, or watch English-language media with subtitles.
  • Prepare for Monday: Organize your study materials, set goals for the coming week, and plan what topics you’d like to ask your teachers about.

What Is Power MTM 7?

For short-term students, we recommend Power MTM 7, our most intensive one-on-one course. This plan includes:

  • 7 classes per day, Monday to Friday
  • Each class is 50 minutes long and taught by a professional ESL instructor
  • Subjects can include grammar, conversation, pronunciation, listening, vocabulary, and more
  • Optional evening self-study and weekday activities like yoga, movies, and English games

This plan is ideal for students who want to focus on English in a short time. You’ll have little free time—but you’ll see fast results.

Weekend School Trips: Learn English While Exploring

If you’d rather spend your Sunday exploring Cebu, don’t worry—you’ll still have plenty of chances to practice English. 3D ACADEMY organizes regular school trips on weekends to some of Cebu’s most famous destinations. These include:

  • Oslob Whale Shark Watching: A once-in-a-lifetime experience guided by English-speaking staff
  • Moalboal & Pescador Island: Snorkeling with sea turtles while practicing marine vocabulary
  • Bohol Adventure: Visit Chocolate Hills, tarsiers, and enjoy an English-led cultural experience
  • Island Hopping: Practice conversation skills during a beach BBQ or boat ride

Teachers accompany these trips not only to guide you but also to encourage the use of English during your travel. It’s one of the best ways to apply what you’ve learned in class to real-world settings.

Do I Have to Study on Sunday?

Not at all! Remember, taking a break is also an important part of the learning process. Many students use Sundays to explore the city, attend church services, go shopping, or simply rest. Cebu has a lot to offer—including beaches, malls, cafés, and cultural spots.

We want your experience to be both productive and enjoyable. If you feel tired, take a break. If you feel motivated, we’ll support you with options to keep learning.

Summary

In summary, regular Sunday classes are not offered at 3D ACADEMY. However, short-term students can request optional lessons on Sundays depending on teacher availability. There are also many other ways to continue improving your English—through weekend trips, peer conversations, and self-study. Our Power MTM 7 program is highly recommended for students seeking fast progress in a limited time.

Whether you’re inside the classroom or out exploring the Philippines, your English journey never has to stop. Let us help you design a study plan that works for your goals, time, and energy.
