Foreign Language Courses

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

We recommend the specialised cover provided by Guard.me. Guard.me is the specialist in the language travel industry, providing peace-of-mind to international students all over the world. They have a global network of offices that provide an exceptional, local service.

The Guard.me insurance policy offers you cover for medical insurance whilst staying with us, loss or damage to your or your host teacher’s property and of course covers you in the unlikely event you have to cancel your course. The insurance offered by InTuition has been specially designed with you in mind.

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

For adults, we can arrange specialised cover for just £7.50 per student per week. Please contact us for full information.

Our 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 disabilities, including learning, visual and auditory. 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. Many carers choose to take a course during their stay, too, in which case our standard 2:1 fees apply. Wheelchair Access We have a number of teachers that have wheelchair-accessible homes For us to best serve the student and offer a unique learning and cultural experience it is fundamental that we receive full details of the student’s learning and motor skills during the enquiry process. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us.

We only work with the best tutors. We personally interview them and inspect their accommodation, before they join our team. They will have a recognised qualification to teach a foreign language 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. We believe there are four basic ingredients which make a successful Host Tutor:

1. An enthusiasm for teaching 
2. A professional and Equivalent teaching qualification in your country. 
3. An empathetic personality
4. A comfortable and hospitable home

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. 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. 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
