What are in-person 1-on-1 lessons?
Face-to-face lessons with one teacher and one student. Content starts from your level and real needs: build everyday foundations, or focus on speaking, workplace communication or another clear goal.
Unlike groups with a shared pace, more lesson time goes to your questions. Your teacher observes you through demonstrations, conversation and tasks, then gives targeted feedback on pronunciation, wording and structure. Frequency, materials and goals are agreed in your plan.
- Who it suits
- Adults with clear goals, specific issues to address, or schedules that do not suit a fixed group.
- How a lesson works
- Start with a real task, such as introducing yourself, explaining a need or discussing work, practise the language, then complete the conversation again.
- How it is organised
- Available in Hangzhou and Shanghai. 50-minute lessons; frequency is set by your goals and time, with no fixed end date.
Lessons focused on what you really want to say.
From understanding new material to expressing your own ideas, the classroom becomes a place for continuous practice.
