Most lectures are in English. Handouts, audio-visual aids such as whiteboard, powerpoint, and videos are used to assist the lecturer. Class participation is encouraged.
2. Culinary Training (5 weeks)–
(A) Demonstration Class–In the morning chef instructors will explain and demonstrate how to cook each dish
(B) Practical Application—In the afternoon, students, using recipes and notes, are expected to properly prepare the same dish professionally and correctly. All dishes are checked by the instructor with constructive criticism offered. Each student has his own training station and works independently.
