Private One-to-One Tutoring

This suits anyone who wants faster progress or has a specific reason to learn, a trip, a partner's family, a job. The tutor works only with you, adjusts the pace lesson by lesson, and focuses on the vocabulary and situations you actually need. Sessions happen in person in central London or online by video call.

How a course usually starts

  1. 1

    Goal conversation

    We ask why you are learning and by when, so the plan actually fits your reason.

  2. 2

    Tutor match

    You are paired with a tutor whose style and specialism fit what you need.

  3. 3

    First lesson

    The tutor tests your current level informally and sets the pace from there.

  4. 4

    Ongoing lessons

    You book sessions weekly or as often as suits, and the plan adjusts as you improve.

Why students stay with us term after term

A lesson plan built around your goals, your pace, your schedule

No wasted time on what you already know

A group class has to cover everyone's gaps, one-to-one covers only yours.

Faster feedback loop

Mistakes get corrected the moment they happen, not a week later on marked homework.

Works around real life

You can move a lesson if work runs late, something a fixed class timetable cannot do.

Our commitment to you

If after your first lesson or first week you feel the group or tutor is clearly wrong for your level, we move you at no extra cost. We cannot guarantee exam results or fluency by a set date, because that depends on your own practice too, but we do guarantee the lessons match your actual level and goal. Pricing & payment

What students say

★★★★★
My tutor spotted that I kept mixing up past tenses and spent two whole sessions just drilling that until it stuck. Four months in I can hold a real phone call with my in-laws in Calabria.
Sarah K., Bristol, GB
★★★★☆
Booking was straightforward and my tutor always logs on right on time. Two months in and I've gone from blank stares to actually following most of what my colleague says in meetings.
Michael T., Manchester, GB
★★★★★
Six months of Tuesday evening lessons and not one has been cancelled on me. When I emailed about swapping a session my tutor sorted it within the hour.
