The expression “the full package” is an idiom in English that means “the complete offer” or “everything included.” It is used to describe a person, product, or experience that has all the desirable qualities or features.

“Get Your Foot In The Door” is our B1.1 course, the first sublevel of B1 according to the CEFR (Common European Framework of Reference). The expression refers to taking the first step toward a bigger opportunity, often by getting an initial chance or entry-level position that could lead to something better.

It is designed for teenagers who have already completed level A2 and want to make the leap to the intermediate level, gaining fluency and confidence to handle more complex situations, both academically and in their daily lives.
