English that starts at the right level

Every new student begins with a free level check. It tells us — and you — exactly where they are in grammar, reading and listening, so they join the class that fits from the very first lesson.

How it starts

  1. 1

    Take the free online level test

    Grammar and vocabulary, reading and listening, at your own pace. A result for each skill appears as soon as you finish.

  2. 2

    Talk the result through with us

    We look at the result with you and recommend the class that matches the level and the goal — school, exams, or confident everyday English.

  3. 3

    Start learning

    Join a class at the right level. Our teachers write lesson reports, so you can always see what was covered.

Ways to learn

  • Buffet English classes

    A monthly pass for scheduled group classes at your level — Beginner, General or Advanced. Come to as many of your level's classes as you like during the month.

  • One-to-one English

    Lessons planned around one student and their goal. In person or online. Usually an hour, sometimes an hour and a half or two. Booked as a package of hours.

  • Pairs and small groups

    Learn with a sibling or a friend at the same level, with one plan for the group.

  • Exam preparation

    IELTS and Cambridge English, such as B1 Preliminary: practice papers, timed writing and speaking rehearsal.

What a lesson looks like

A typical class for younger learners is built around a short story. In one hour, students:

  • ✓meet new words in context, not from a list
  • ✓retell the main idea in their own words
  • ✓present their own ending to the group
  • ✓practise listening and speaking throughout
