Group Tuition
I offer tuition to small groups comprising of two or three relatives or friends as I find that this ensures a commonality of objectives which can be best achieved. By keeping numbers low, I can make sure that all participants still receive my personal tuition which allows them to get the best out of their day. Prices are based on the full price of a One to One Course for the first participant plus £120.00 each for subsequent participants eg. two people - £320.00, three people £440.00. Please contact me via the Contact Me tab with your requirements if you are interested.
