Most of our classes run for 3 hours in the morning between 9.00 am and 12.30 during the week. Our bespoke Adult One to One Classes can be anytime between 9.00 am and 4.00 pm from Monday to Friday.
Our teenage groups come mainly in the Spring and Summer and stay for 1-2 weeks. They may have classes every morning, or once a week - depending on their itinerary and other activities. This means teaching requires flexibility from our fantastic teaching team.
We are grateful for teachers who are passionate about teaching English, hold the relevant certification and have a sunny, positive attitude that makes our students’ holiday one to remember!
Our teachers all work on a self-employed basis. Rates per hour are given by the school.
Yes, all of our staff are DBS checked and hold an enhanced certificate. If new teachers do not have one, we are able to arrange this at the expense of the teacher concerned.
If we are contacted by an adult learner wanting English Lessons, we will assess the learner’s English level and what type of studies they wish to pursue. We will then match them up with one of our expert teachers.
