Excellent Teachers

Most schools pride themselves on being ‘the fanciest’ or ‘the largest’.

 

We pride ourselves in our multifaceted teachers – as it is them who make sure that a student reaches his/her optimal goal in a lesson. This leads to the overall high achievement levels of our clients. 

 

An all-round teacher is not always easy to find, and we take pride in fostering that growth in all our teachers.

 

A compelling teacher will make sure the course is not just good, but excellent. We are honoured to be working with such wonderful teachers.

Standard Course or Intensive Course

We offer two different course – Our Standard course with 20 lessons per week and our Intensive Course with 30 lessons per week 

Standard – Monday to Friday, 09h00 – 12h50 General English

Intensive – Monday to Friday, 09h00 – 12h50 General English and 13h30 – 15h20 either General or Business English

 

Should you need more one-on-one attention, you are welcome to add private lessons to your course which would be an hour or two a day –  but keep in mind that private lessons are very intense.

Student Accommodation

We offer on-site and off-site accommodation which come with kitchen amenities. Our on-site accommodation offers a shared kitchen, shared bathrooms and a lounge for the students to relax and interact with each other. 

 

Our off-site accommodation is dependant on the host families. Our hosts all live in walking distance to the school – we can truly say that we work with wonderful hosts that really care.
