Prices vary according to the nature of your lesson, its duration and the program chosen. The costs will therefore be different whether you take a single lesson or whether you opt for a package of 5, 10 or more sessions. It will also be different whether your lesson is at KS3 level or at advanced level. Please go here for the cost of our private tuition or to fees for more details or contact us for information on our different tariffs.
We do not use Skype or Zoom to deliver our lessons, but a technology that is quite similar to them with added advantages. The technology that we use is specially designed for online teaching. We use an online platform which allows us to project presentations and other documents which students can see. They can also interact with the teacher and other students, write on an interactive whiteboard or in the chat box and speak to us when this is required.
We have an article on the technical requirements as well as the tools and equipments needed to attend a lesson online. Click here to find out more...

We prepare students for their French IGCSE exam, and they are now able to sit the exam with us through Tutors and Exams. It is, however, the parents or guardians' responsibility to enter the student for examinations. If entered through us, you will benefit from a 10% discount on your exam fee.
If however you would prefer to enter your child through another exam centre, we can provide you with a list of the centres that some of our students or other parents have successfully used to sit their IGCSE in French.
In the UK, Edexcel and CAIE both have centres throughout the country where your daughter will be able to sit her Cambridge or Edexcel IGCSE in French examinations. If you are based overseas, the British Council will usually be the exam centre of choice. Both of the exam boards have further details on their websites.
