Are the teachers native speakers?

Yes - native speakers or fully bilingual, trained in-house with CELTA, DELTA or equivalent certifications.

Can I take lessons online?

All formats are available online except where the experience requires presence (full-day immersion with lunch with the tutor, for instance). Most learners pick a mix.

Yes. Group courses start on fixed dates each month. Private 1:1 and immersion weeks can start whenever you choose. You can pause up to two weeks in any 12-month period for free.
