One-to-One for professionals

The one-to-one courses for professionals are highly-individualized programmes, based on a detailed needs analysis of the professional and social needs of the participants. It is suitable for participants who have a very specialist agenda for their course, trainees who may wish to only have lessons in the morning or outside our normal timetable hours, or students of a low level (lower intermediate or below) who do not have the communicative competence/ability to participate in the open groups.

Minimum age is 18 years.

Host family

As the school is one of the oldest in Portsmouth, it has the advantage of being able to work with the best families in town. All families are situated within walking distance to the school (on average 20 minutes and 35-40 minutes in the summer).

During the week the students have half board and on weekends full board. As the school is accredited by the British Council, it puts emphasis on not placing two students of the same nationality in one host family. The families acommodate at least 2 students. This is the most adequate way for students that wish to practice their English with native speakers and have inclusive meals.

Executive Host Family

To enhance the social, cultural and intensive language experience, we encourage professionals to stay with a carefully-selected Executive Host family. These families are educated, hospitable retired people or professionals who love welcoming international students. Feedback over the years has demonstrated outstanding satisfaction levels. This accommodation is on half-board basis: breakfast and dinner on weekdays, and all meals at the weekend. Many of these families have a private bathroom available (subject to availability). The earlier you book, the more likely it is that you are able to have a private bathroom.  There’s no difference in cost if a private bathroom is available.
