Email your coach whenever a question comes up
The biggest jumps in my own Spanish and French came when someone was paying attention to me specifically: a teacher or a friend who knew where I was and what to push me on next. That's hard to get when you're learning on your own, however good the material is.
VIP Coaching is our way of giving you that. You still work through one of our courses, but with a coach who's looking only at you: your goals, the things you find tricky, and the progress you're making. They're there between sessions too, for the questions that come up in the middle of the week.
It isn't a replacement for the podcasts or the courses. It's an extra layer for people who want to make a real step forward in a set amount of time.
The programme
You work through half a level of a Coffee Break course with your coach, with time set aside to consolidate before you move on.
Five weeks of new material, a week to consolidate, then the same again.
Two 45-minute one-to-one Zoom sessions every week, 24 in total.
Matched to your language, your level and your timezone.
Half a level of a Coffee Break course, with full access to the course itself.
Email your coach during the week whenever something comes up.
Go back over anything you want to hear again.
Our coaches are in different timezones, so mornings, evenings and weekends all work.
From our VIP learners
I definitely recommend the VIP coaching. I found it really helpful. I feel like I've really made progress with my speaking, and I felt like the course was flexible enough that I could learn what I wanted to learn. At the same time, my coach helped me to practise things that I didn't even know I needed practice on.
Martha, VIP Coaching studentIf you're serious about wanting to move your language skills forward, and you've got the time to invest in it yourself, it's a really brilliant way of learning and improving. It's been lovely to meet someone in Spain, someone who's there on the ground talking about things and sharing experiences.
Nick, VIP Coaching student
I have found VIP Coaching to be a very enjoyable and rewarding experience. I would highly recommend it to anyone wishing to advance their language skills.

Getting started
It explains how the programme works, what's included and how the twelve weeks are structured.
A member of our VIP Coaching team will have a free call with you, about 25 minutes, to hear about your learning so far and what you'd like to achieve. We'll go through the cost with you too.
Book your free callWe match you with your coach, set your two weekly session times, and you're ready to start.
Questions
We work with learners from beginner to advanced. The call helps us work out where you should start.
Our coaches live in different timezones, so we can usually find times that suit you, whether that's mornings, evenings or weekends. Your two sessions are at the same times each week.
Let your coach know at least 48 hours ahead and they'll find another time. With less notice than that, the session counts as used.
Twelve weeks covers half a level. You can carry on with a second block to finish the level.
We'll go through the cost with you on the call. You can pay in one go or in two instalments.
Next step
The best way to find out if VIP Coaching is right for you is a short conversation.
