English Combination Course London

Our English Combination course in London combines the benefits of the morning Standard group course (9.15 - 12.45) with a tailor-made one-to-one programme in the afternoon from 13.30. The one-to-one lessons are designed to meet the specific needs and requirements of the student and will typically focus on specific areas of interest to the student as well as on aspects of the student's English that are in need of special attention.

You can study either 5 (Combo 5), 10 (Combo 10) or 15 (Combo 15) lessons* of one-to-one each week in the afternoon depending on what you feel you need.

* 1 lesson = 45 mins
