Regular classes at 3D ACADEMY are held from Monday to Friday.<\/strong> Standard classes run Monday through Friday.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n For 1\u20132 week students<\/strong>, the number of man-to-man classes is fully guaranteed.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n If a holiday affects your schedule, we provide make-up classes<\/strong>:<\/p>\n By adding extra classes on other weekdays, or<\/p>\n<\/li>\n By scheduling classes on Saturday, Sunday, or holidays<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n All make-up classes are 1:1 (man-to-man)<\/strong> and follow the same high-quality format.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n No special request is necessary.

For students staying 3 weeks or longer, weekend and holiday classes are not included<\/strong> unless arranged separately. Please plan your schedule accordingly.<\/p>\n At 3D ACADEMY, our standard class schedule runs from Monday through Friday<\/strong>, with weekends and public holidays traditionally observed as non-instructional days. However, we understand that many of our students\u2014especially those enrolled in short-term programs (1 to 2 weeks)<\/strong>\u2014are looking to maximize their learning experience in a limited time.<\/p>\n That\u2019s why 3D ACADEMY offers a flexible scheduling policy<\/strong> for short-term students. If your stay includes a national holiday or non-teaching day, we guarantee that you will still receive the full number of one-on-one classes<\/strong> you signed up for. These make-up classes may be scheduled by:<\/p>\n Adding extra classes during weekdays, or<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Holding lessons on Saturday, Sunday, or public holidays<\/strong>, depending on availability.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n This policy ensures that short-term students receive the same educational value and intensity as longer-term students, despite a shorter timeframe. For long-term students, weekend and holiday classes are not normally provided, although special arrangements can sometimes be made.<\/p>\n In short, our approach to weekend and holiday scheduling is student-centered and adaptable<\/strong>, designed to help you make the most of every day you spend with us in Cebu.<\/p>\n While 3D ACADEMY is committed to offering flexible and student-centered education, we generally do not hold regular classes on weekends or public holidays<\/strong>. This policy exists for several practical and educational reasons.<\/p>\n First, most of our Filipino teachers work on a Monday-to-Friday schedule<\/strong>, which allows them to rest and recharge over the weekend. Maintaining teacher well-being is essential to ensuring the high-quality instruction our students expect.<\/p>\n Second, weekends are often used for campus maintenance<\/strong>, facility cleaning, and administrative updates. By pausing regular instruction during these days, we ensure a safe and well-managed environment for all students.<\/p>\n Finally, weekends and holidays give students a chance to rest, explore Cebu, or join optional activities or tours<\/strong>. For many learners, cultural experiences and leisure time are an important part of studying abroad, and we encourage this balance between academics and local engagement.<\/p>\n That said, for short-term students or special cases<\/strong>, we make exceptions by scheduling additional classes on weekends\u2014ensuring you never miss out on your promised learning time.<\/p>\n At 3D ACADEMY, we recognize that students enrolled in short-term programs of 1 or 2 weeks<\/strong> have limited time to achieve their goals. That\u2019s why we provide a guaranteed number of one-on-one classes<\/strong>, even if your schedule is affected by public holidays or travel dates.<\/p>\n If a holiday falls during your stay, or if you arrive mid-week, we will make sure you still receive the full number of classes promised in your course package<\/strong>. To accomplish this, we offer flexible scheduling options, such as:<\/p>\n Adding extra one-on-one lessons<\/strong> on weekdays (e.g., 6 or more classes in a day)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Scheduling classes on weekends or holidays<\/strong> (subject to availability)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n This special treatment ensures that short-term students don\u2019t lose valuable learning time due to calendar conflicts. It also reflects our commitment to delivering value and results, no matter how short your stay may be.<\/p>\n Our academic staff will handle the scheduling automatically\u2014you don\u2019t need to worry. Just focus on your learning and make the most of your time in Cebu.<\/p>\n To give you a clearer picture of how we support short-term students, here are a few realistic examples<\/strong> of how we adjust class schedules at 3D ACADEMY:<\/p>\n Example 1: National holiday during your 1-week stay<\/strong> Example 2: Midweek arrival<\/strong> Example 3: Holiday + short stay<\/strong> Our academic coordinators will customize your schedule based on your specific dates and course type\u2014so you\u2019ll never miss out on learning time.<\/p>\n The Philippines observes numerous national and local holidays<\/strong> throughout the year\u2014typically around 15 to 18 days annually. These holidays include major events such as Holy Week, Independence Day (June 12), and Christmas (December 25)<\/strong>, as well as regional holidays specific to Cebu.<\/p>\n At 3D ACADEMY, no regular classes are held on public holidays<\/strong>. This applies to both one-on-one and group classes. For most long-term students, these holidays are not compensated<\/strong> or rescheduled. However, for short-term students (1\u20132 weeks)<\/strong>, make-up classes are provided to ensure you don\u2019t lose valuable learning time.<\/p>\n We strongly recommend checking the academic calendar<\/strong> when planning your study period. If you\u2019re coming for just a week or two, and your stay overlaps with a Philippine holiday, rest assured that our staff will proactively adjust your class schedule.<\/p>\n Some students choose to travel during holidays, while others enjoy a well-earned break or use the time for self-study or social interaction<\/strong>. Whether you choose to rest or continue learning, understanding the local holiday schedule is key to making the most of your time at 3D ACADEMY.<\/p>\n At 3D ACADEMY, our class schedule is designed to be efficient and adaptable<\/strong>, especially for students enrolled in short-term programs of 1 or 2 weeks<\/strong>. While regular classes are held Monday through Friday<\/strong>, we understand that short stays may overlap with public holidays or limited weekdays.<\/p>\n That\u2019s why we offer a lesson guarantee<\/strong> for short-term students: if your schedule is affected by a national holiday or travel day, we will adjust your timetable by:<\/p>\n Increasing your number of daily one-on-one classes on weekdays, or<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Arranging make-up classes on weekends or holidays<\/strong>, depending on availability.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n This policy ensures you receive the full value of your program<\/strong>, even within a tight timeframe.<\/p>\n However, for long-term students (3 weeks or more)<\/strong>, weekend and holiday classes are not available<\/strong>. These days are intended for rest, self-study, or exploration, and are not compensated or rescheduled. We appreciate your understanding and recommend planning around official holidays if you’re staying for an extended period.<\/p>\n In summary, our weekend and holiday policy is student-first and time-sensitive<\/strong>\u2014designed to help short-term learners make the most of their investment in English education.<\/p>\n \n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":7132,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_kad_blocks_custom_css":"","_kad_blocks_head_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_body_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_footer_custom_js":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[48],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7162","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-about-classes-curriculum"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
However, for short-term students staying 1 or 2 weeks<\/strong>, we offer a guarantee of the full number of one-on-one lessons<\/strong>. If there are national holidays or days off during your stay, we will make up for those missed lessons by adding extra classes on weekdays<\/strong> or arranging classes on weekends or public holidays<\/strong>.<\/p>\nKey Points:<\/h3>\n

\nExamples: How We Adjust Schedules for Short-Term Students<\/h3>\n
You\u2019re enrolled in a 1-week course with 5 days of classes, but one of those days falls on a Philippine national holiday. Instead of losing that day, we increase the number of one-on-one classes on the remaining weekdays<\/strong>\u2014for example, by adding one or two extra classes each day from Monday to Friday.<\/p>\n
You arrive on a Wednesday and leave the following Wednesday, making your available study days limited. In this case, we may offer classes on the weekend<\/strong> (Saturday and\/or Sunday) to ensure you receive the total number of lessons you paid for.<\/p>\n
In rare cases where both a holiday and a weekend reduce your class days significantly, we combine both options: extended weekday classes<\/strong> and weekend sessions<\/strong> to fully meet your lesson count.<\/p>\n
