General
Only the target language must be spoken in the classroom.
Photocopies and a course folder will be provided during the course (coursebooks are not included in the lesson costs as they are not required but we would be happy to recommend one for self-study if required).
We carry out evaluations to ensure that students are placed in the correct group for their level and objectives. If you feel that you have been placed in the wrong class, then please tell your teacher or send us an email after the first lesson so that we can discuss this with you and move you to a different group if necessary.

Local Teacher Travel Expenses
Travel expenses will be charged for all lessons not taken at our premises as our teachers therefore have to travel and it is a legal obligation for them to be paid a government-dened amount of travel expenses. We are aware that this increases the price of the lessons, unfortunately this is beyond our control. If you would prefer not to pay travel expenses, then you are more than welcome to take your lessons at our school premises.
Travelling from abroad
Clients are responsible for arranging their own transport to and from the school. The School can organise transfers from Geneva airport for you.
If you have booked a transfer through us, upon arrival at Geneva, you will be greeted by a transfer representative, shown to your mini bus and driven to your accommodation. Weather and road conditions permitting, the journey should take no more than 90 mins.
In the case of unforeseen circumstances, out of the School’s or the transfer company’s control, such as flight delays, cancellations, lost luggage, adverse weather and road conditions, you may be required to wait in the airport arrivals café area. If this happens, you will be noticed immediately upon arrival and kept informed of the situation by a designated transfer representative.
Transfers are arranged on a shared-transfer basis. This means you will be travelling with other passengers. In this situation, you may also be required to wait at the airport. Alternatively we can arrange a private transfer for you for an additional charge if you do not wish to wait. For your return journey, it may be necessary for us to allow up to 4 hours to transport you safely to the airport from Morzine, due to adverse weather or traffic conditions.
