The type of courses we offer:
Face-to-Face 1-to-1 (Individual) General English
English lessons of this type are broader and are aimed towards students with a variety of requirements. While all beginner level students will cover survival English—needed for short visits to countries where English isn't widely spoken, or if you wish to 'go local'—those studying English usually go in different directions at this point, depending on what they need. Those who have benefited from these English classes have been those investing in or buying property overseas, those married to overseas nationals, people setting off on a round-the-world trip, enthusiasts for English culture and those hoping to pass a specific exam in English.

Face-to-Face 1-to-1 (Individual) Business English
These English Lessons are intended for people who really need to learn English to help make that difference in their work. For beginners, it will be useful to learn greetings and basic business etiquette; at higher levels, reading and then writing become more important. Typical students include those involved in import/export, international negotiations and acquisitions, jobseekers in multinational companies where an additional language is required, and those working with international colleagues, academia and government. Even in our most basic lesson for Beginners, students should expect to end the lesson with basic telephone English and English e-mail skills for communication as well as survival English required for short visits to a country.

Top Tips For…
english Songs
Every Breath You Take- The Police
This song is perfect for those who are just starting with their English lessons, as it’s quite repetitive and uses simple grammar. Also, as almost all the verses rhyme, you will get to practise similar phonemes and learn the subtle differences between them. Although the song may strike you as romantic, it is actually about a stalker obsessed with the woman he lost. By listening to Every Breath You Take, you will learn more about idioms that express love and pain, such as “my heart aches” or “to be lost without a trace”. Listen to this piece here!english Songs
Where Is the Love? - Black Eyed Peas
Black Eyed Peas was a very successful band in the 2000s and composed songs like Where Is the Love?, a track about social issues, such as racism, terrorism, hate, and intolerance. The singer asks, “where is the love?” to encourage us to embrace each other. So, in addition to learning English vocabulary and expressions, you will learn a lot about the American culture and problems they are still facing today. The style is quite fast and includes a lot of slang and informal phrases, so it’s more suitable for advanced students of English. Listen to this piece here!Wonderwall - Oasis
If you are a fan of pop music and would like to combine your love of music with learning English outside the classroom, then you should definitely listen to Oasis songs, like Wonderwall. This hit describes an imaginary loved one who supports the poetic persona in any and every situation. Because of its complicated structures and combination of past tenses, it’s most suitable for higher-level learners of English. By listening to this song, you will also become familiar with informal expressions and contractions like “gotta” or “should’ve”. Listen to this piece here!english Entertainment
Game of Thrones- TV Series
Game of Thrones is one of the most popular series of the last decade and not without reason! It has an epic story with a plot that thickens with every season.

From dragons to sorcerers, you will discover a whole world while getting to know the colourful characters that make up the families of House Stark, House Targaryen and House Lannister. Although everyone can enjoy this amazing series, beginner students may have trouble understanding the archaic English that some of the characters use when talking to each other. Fortunately, subtitles will be of help here! Find here more information about this amazing series!english Entertainment
Harry Potter- Movie
Ever since the Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone screened in 2001, the series of movies, based on the books by J K Rowling, has captivated children, teens and adults. The first film is about a young boy who discovers he is a wizard and follows his adventures in Hogwarts, an ancient school of magic. There, he makes friends with Hermione and Ron and realizes that in the magical world he is very special: Harry is the only person to ever survive the dark sorcerer, Lord Voldemort. The saga is incredibly entertaining and very useful for becoming acquainted with the British accent and culture (it turns out that tea time is sacred, even in the magical world).
