What ages do you teach?
We specialize in young learners (ages 7–14) who are building skills toward A2/KET and B1 levels.
How big are the classes?
Small groups of 2–4 students allow for interaction and feedback. 1:1 coaching is available during exam weeks.
Curriculum & Levels
Do you prepare for KET (A2 Key)?
Yes—our A2 Bootcamp covers task types, timing, and strategies with live speaking drills, mock papers, and writing feedback. We also run comprehensive 10-week courses for full exam preparation.
How soon before the exam should we start?
For full preparation, we recommend starting 12 weeks before the exam. Bootcamps—although only one week long—run on pre-scheduled dates, so please register at least one week in advance.
Tech & Access
What tech do we need?
A laptop or tablet, stable Wi-Fi, and a headset. We run classes in Koala Go and our materials portal—no paid apps required.
Can my child join from a phone?
Phones do not work on Koala Go. Tablets do, but a laptop with the Google Chrome browser gives the best experience for reading and writing tasks.
Pricing & Policies
How much does it cost?
Group bootcamps start at $175 USD/week, and 1:1 classes start at $30 USD / 25 minutes. See the Pricing & Course Listings for details.
