Why English?
The answer depends on your goal. Pin it down first — it decides which program you need and for how long.
-
For university
Most scholarship schemes and English-language university admissions require a score in a recognised test. Preparing for a test is not the same as improving your English generally — and confusing the two costs months.
-
For work and promotion
In many jobs English matters less for getting hired than for getting noticed: people who can present, run a meeting and write in English get a seat at tables that others never reach.
-
For recognised tests
IELTS, TOEIC and the Cambridge exams are run by independent organisations, each with its own official site, rules and recognised scores.
Academies prepare you for the test, but they do not award the certificate, and the score you need is set by the university or employer you are applying to.
-
For travelling independently
English is the difference between a trip where you depend on an interpreter and one where you handle your own bookings, the airport and, if it comes to it, the doctor.
-
For daily life
Much of what crosses your screen is in English: technical documentation, courses, contracts, terms of service. If you can read the original, you never wait for a translation that may never arrive.
-
For confidence, above all
Most people who say their English is weak know more grammar than they think; what they lack is the confidence to speak. That is exactly where one-to-one lessons earn their keep: there is no one in the room to feel embarrassed in front of.
A realistic expectation
Nobody becomes fluent in two weeks, but an intensive timetable, one-to-one lessons and an environment that makes you speak speed up your progress enormously compared with two lessons a week at home.
The right length of stay depends on your current level and your goal, and we help you estimate it in the consultation without overselling.
