One matched tutor, one written plan, real progress

Viva Voce Online School grew out of one tutor's client list. People kept asking for the same thing: a teacher who remembered what they had covered last week, and lessons that started after the working day ended. That suited us. Every learner is matched to one qualified native-speaking tutor who keeps a fixed set of students, so nobody has to explain their level from scratch at the start of every class, and the tutor can plan the next lesson while the last one is still fresh.

Spanish, French, Italian and German are all taught live online, in small groups or one-to-one. Before the first lesson we run a level test and a conversation about what you need the language for: a client call in Frankfurt, a move to Lyon, a family holiday in Puglia. From that we write a progress plan with checkpoints you can see. We review it with you as you go. Conversation clubs run through the week, and lessons start at 6pm or 8pm, which works whether you commute into Manchester or work from a kitchen table in Norwich. Need to move a lesson? You speak to your tutor.
