At The British Centre, we also cater to students of all ages who require individual tuition as opposed to studying in a group. A student may wish to study towards a public exam such as TOEFL, TOEIC or IELTS. Being part of a group often prevents the teacher from being able to address your individual needs satisfactorily. Individual classes are the best option if you feel you are in this situation. The cost for individual classes ranges from $295 (General English) to $600 (IELTS Preparation) pesos per hour depending on the degree of difficulty and speciality of the class. In all cases, an interview with Stephen Edmunds, the General Director, is necessary to enable us to detect your needs and construct an appropriate course of studies which will address them! Schedules for individual tuition are at your complete election, but obviously kept within the bounds of our teacher schedules and office hours. However, it may be necessary to negotiate your schedule as the teacher best able to teach you may not be available for the schedule you prefer. For a personal quotation, please send an email to:
