Our Courses

We deliver evening language classes in French, Italian, Japanese, Mandarin and Spanish 

Our classes are designed to be dynamic and interactive, fostering an engaging learning experience. We employ full immersion communicative activities to ensure you can start speaking the language right from your first class. 

Course Structure: 

Our courses are meticulously designed to ensure a smooth transition from one level to the next. This provides you with a clear sense of progression and accomplishment. The courses are based on three core levels of the Common European Framework for Modern Languages:

• Beginner/Elementary A1
• Pre-intermediate A2
• Intermediate B1

Advancing from a Beginner level to an Intermediate level in European languages follows a structured path consisting of 16 levels, whereas for Mandarin and Japanese, this progression is organised into 24 levels.

Our courses are delivered in person at our school located in Holland Park, London. These courses typically span 6 to 7 weeks, featuring 2-hour lessons once a week, from Monday to Thursday, running from 6 pm to 8 pm. Each of our classes is equipped with modern technology and can accommodate up to 10 students.

Teaching Methodology

We use the Communicative Approach across all language courses and our trainers teach only in the Target Language. 

Target Language: 

In our classes, trainers exclusively use the language taught, avoiding relying on English. While this may initially appear daunting, our trainers are skilled in effectively communicating using a variety of techniques, even at beginner level, although some exceptions can be made in A1.0 and A1.1 levels to help you smoothly adapt to the methodology. This approach encourages active participation from all students and promotes complete immersion in the language. Remember, speaking up and making mistakes are integral parts of the language-learning journey. 

Communicative Approach: 

We adopt the communicative approach to create student-centred lessons that prioritize the development of oral skills. This means that students are encouraged to do most of the talking, while trainers minimize explanations and focus on tasks and activities. You will actively engage in pair work and group activities during each session. Our classes are structured to include trainer-student correction slots, speaking exercises, communicative activities, quizzes, games, reading and listening comprehension exercises, as well as grammar practice. Homework is recommended to reinforce your understanding.  

Note: 

Please be aware that in case a class needs to be cancelled the recovery class will happen on a Friday of the same term, usually on the same week as the cancelled class.
