Your online language school

Flexibility

Learn anytime and anywhere (office, home, airport, hotel, swimming pool). Students make their own schedule and can adapt and change it whenever necessary. Don’t lose your lesson because of a last minute meeting, traffic or too much work.

Individality / Immersion

Learn however and whatever you want. Courses are tailored made to your individual needs. The teacher adapts to your learning style, and adjusts the selection of course material, exercises and homework to whatever works best for you and your language learning purpose (exam preparation, travel, work, personal interest, ...). In addition, audiovisual media (videos, movies, books, audiobooks, newspapers, ...) is used in the course, which allows an immersion in the language to be learned.

Quality

Teachers are experienced, know what it means to learn a language and how to teach it and explain grammar, they listen and let the student talk, and most importantly they are passionate and motivated to coach their students through their language learning experience.
