Default Re: 60, 90, or 120

Interesting question.

I do the following:

60 with the kids
60 with individuals
90 with classes at my school
120 at the university.

I have done 150 with high school kids, but with a good break in the middle. I've even done 180 with a group of engineers - it was a nightmare. The person organising the course obviously knew nothing about language courses and was convinced that 3 hours was fine and that his 'boys' as he called them could happily concentrate for that amount of time. You could smell their brains frying from the other side of town!

Going the other way, does anyone do less than 60, and if so, what do you manage to get done?
