You may have very specific
objectives, with the result that
a group course is not right for
you. If so, private tuition is the
ideal solution.
With a private tuition course,
you receive the dedication of a
personal tutor who will create
a programme just for you. At
the beginning of your course,
we will perform a detailed
analysis of your objectives and
will obtain regular feedback
from you to make sure your
objectives are met.
Some students choose to
combine private tuition with
one of our group courses
(e.g. Prestige English,
Executive English etc), so that
they spend half the time in a
group and half the time
in private tuition.
If you wish, you may also
choose to take your individual
tuition with one or two friends
or colleagues - making it a 2:1
or 3:1 course.

Private Tuition

What happens in class?Some students identify a specific
area in which they need to improve.
This requires totally personalised and
focused training which a group course
may not be able to provide.
All our individual tuition programmes
include a detailed needs analysis
leading to an individual training
programme ensuring that we maintain
complete focus on the objectives that
are established.

Its a good opportunity to improveparticular skills, and has alsogiven me a greater understandingof my English ability.Jos Luis
Is this course for me?There is no typical private tuition
student. You may believe that a group
course is not the best solution for you,
or you may have limited time available
due to a busy career or home life.
Students choosing private tuition do
so for a number of different reasons,
such as:
> priority focus on specific areas of
interest
> preparation for an important
presentation at work
> increasing confidence in preparation
for an English language conference,
seminar or meeting
> increasing overall level of confidence
in all aspects of English language
> wish for tutor to focus 100% on your
own individual objectives
The resultsBy the end of the course you will be
able to:
> significantly improve your performance
in priority areas
> understand your own strengths and
identify future areas of focus
> speak with greater confidence, fluency
and accuracy
> use a greatly increased vocabulary
