We only work with the best tutors. We personally interview them and inspect their accommodation, before they join our team. All tutors have a recognised qualification to teach EFL / MFL and in most cases a honours degree and experience in both teaching and hosting.

Our teachers are dedicated and professional. They are chosen not only for their experience and qualifications but for their warmth and hospitality and the comfort of their homes.

All InTuition courses include spare time – it’s important to have the chance to relax, both for the student and the teacher! Students also have additional work assigned, which needs to be completed outside lesson time.

Adult students have two afternoons or evenings a week where their host tutor will accompany them on a local excursion or activity, taking into account the student’s interests and preferences. For Young Learners, there are three afternoon / evening excursions each week, plus a full-day activity at the weekend, if the course is longer than one week.

Outside of these times, students are welcome to relax in their host tutor family’s home – perhaps catching up on emails or other work – or take the time to explore the area independently. Host tutors will provide full support with using public transport, and a big part of the immersion experience is getting out and about.

At the end of each course, host tutors prepare an End of Course Report which tells students what they have studied, how much they have improved, and what they need to do to continue improving their English. Students also receive a certificate of attendance via email shortly after their course finishes.

All students can choose to continue studying with their host tutor online, after their home tuition course finishes. See InTuition Online Programme for more details.

All students must take out suitable travel insurance before commencing their InTuition Languages home tuition programme.

Young Learner students receive insurance cover as part of their standard course fee.

For adults, we can arrange specialised cover if requested. Please contact us for full information.

InTuition courses are designed around each student’s needs and requirements – academic, social and personal. This makes us ideal for a student with special requirements or disabilities.

We have a number of host tutors with a wealth of experience and training in teaching students with a range of disabilities and special needs.

For students that are not fully independent, we are happy to arrange for an accompanying carer to join them on their programme for a special discounted rate.

We have a number of teachers in the UK and Ireland that have wheelchair-accessible homes.

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
