Lessons

living room

To benefit from your Homestay, select 15 or 20 hours of private lessons per week which will be tailored to your needs and objectives. I prioritise speaking activities, but there will be lots of listening too. From experience, those are the skills that learners lack when they come to visit. As your learning facilitator, I will work with material that is of interest to you; your lessons have to be interesting and motivating to make this stay your success. Generally, I would recommend a minimum of 20 hours of private lessons for adults depending on personal needs and requirements.

Accommodation

As a guest you will enjoy a private airy student bedroom on the ground floor. My home has beautifully manicured gardens with beautiful views from most of the outside areas, including the amazing view of the river from the terrace where you can eat breakfast on a sunny day.
