Our prices are very reasonable, especially when you consider that all of our teachers are qualified native-speakers of the languages with which they are concerned.

Whilst it is impossible to quote accurately here for each individual enquiry, the following will give you a reasonable idea.

We offer a minimum booking of 18 hours, with the minimum class duration usually being 90 minutes (exceptions can be made in certain circumstances but the hourly charge is likely then to increase). We include a course book* (or alternative) for each new learner, chosen with their specific needs in mind (and being for them to keep), with these being used to varying degrees of reference during teaching. As courses progress, other teaching aids and materials are introduced on the same basis.

In most areas**, we currently charge, for general or non-technical business courses, £38.00 per hour for one-to-one tuition in French, German, Spanish, Italian or English; for each additional participant, there is a supplement of £3.00 per hour. So, for example, a group of 3 learners would expect to pay £44.00 per hour (£38 + £3 + £3). Although, for more than 90% of our courses, these figures include travel expenses to your premises, there is the possibility of a small supplement being added if your location is further than usual from the working area of our nearest teacher of your target language. In such instances, this figure is minimal (being usually no more than £5.00 per hour, often only £2.00 or £3.00).

We offer discounts against all but the smallest bookings; they are: 30-59 hours (6%), 60-99 hours (9%) & 100+ hours (11%). Discounts are based upon the hours of a single course and are applicable to advanced, pre-paid bookings only – they cannot be applied retrospectively to staged bookings. Please note that, in order to avoid parking costs, you should ensure that there is some free parking available in the vicinity.

* Some course books include CDs or DVDs but many of the better ones do not. In such instances, although teachers will use such material within the class, we do not then automatically provide this material to learners, particularly those on shorter courses, as this would compel us to increase our prices. Although it is not always necessary for learners to have their own CDs or DVDs, these can be purchased from us separately at a slightly reduced rate compared to the recommended retail prices.

** Due to the difficulties of, or time or money spent, on travel in the London area, there is a £5.00 per hour supplement for classes taking place therein.

We hope that this helps to give some indication as to the figures involved but please contact us to obtain a precise figure for your particular situation.
