 Frequently Asked Questions

How much are your fees?

Our WIKA’Y GALING! online Filipino program is for children age 7 to 17. Monthly fee is Php 2,800 per month.

How many sessions?

Small group classes are held twice a week (45 minutes each) via videoconference. On other days of the week, the teacher assigns asynchronous activities such as reading a book, accomplishing worksheets, or writing paragraphs for submission and checking. This ensures daily exposure to Filipino, which is critical in helping students become more fluent in the language.

How many students per class?

Class size depends on the level and schedule, with a maximum of 7 students per class. Having classmates encourages children to participate more and enjoy learning together.

What are the available schedules?

Classes are available from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM on weekdays and until 4:00 PM on Saturdays. We will inform you of the proposed class schedule based on your preference and common availability with classmates in the same level after assessment.

How many months is the program? How quickly are they expected to learn Filipino?

Learning any language takes time. Progress depends on the child’s receptiveness and attitude toward learning Filipino. We highly encourage students to stay in the program for at least 6 months to see significant improvement, especially in comprehension and writing.
