Friday and Saturday are formal holidays in Jordan (Saturday for many organizations). If the first day of any month is a Friday or a Saturday, the course will consequently start on a Sunday

    • Wafid’s cap is 15 students per class, in the case of having significantly fewer numbers of students; our educational advisor recommends “semi-private” lessons where you will be able to cover the same material in a more condensed manner and a reduced amount of hours. This is applicable as following
      • 20% if we have three students only
      • 30% if we have two students only
      • 50 % if we have one student only
    • Please keep in mind with the semi-private lessons;
      • Learning materials will not differ for those who are registered in our semi-private program than the students who joined out group programs
      • Spending one hour with a private, one to one, tutor, provides the benefits of spending 3 to 4 hours in group studies
