La Academia is situated in a leafy suburb of Manchester, close to good restaurants, cafes and Manchester Airport. It is located in a premium area, close to a train station (only 15 minutes to the centre of Manchester), the tram (this takes you to both football grounds) and many buses. From central Manchester you can reach many North West cities of cultural interest, such as Liverpool, Chester and York. Our courses are delivered by qualified and experienced native teachers, on a one to one basis - this makes the most of your time and progress is guaranteed as you are not sharing your time with a large class of various levels. We do not use pre-printed sheets or self-study material in lessons, all students get a tailor-made course to achieve their aims and reach their potential. You discuss your goals with your tutor and he/she builds your course around achieving them. Daily lessons are normally 3 hours' long, 15 hours per week, with homework given for self study in your free time - although some students choose to have more contact time and this is flexible. We offer Home Stay facilities which adds to the cultural experience and helps with language improvement. We also offer optional trips to nearby attractions.
