We have over 20 years of experience in providing English courses for kids and teens in Monaco and Lugano. We work with public and private structures, from elementary to middle and high schools.
We hake over 20 years of experience teaching English courses to kids in elementary school. We have found that on-line English courses for children, individually or in small groups, is a stress-free way for them to incorporate the lesson into their homework time without having to leave the house. We also work with state schools as part of state recognised bilingual programmes.
Middle Schoolers
Our General English courses for middle school students aims to combine support for their scholastic work with real practice in communicating in English. We make sure that they transition from middle to high school well prepared to excel in English.
High School and University students
We have extensive experience in teaching English to high school students, up to high school diploma. Apart from English we also prepare the students for bilingual diplomas in Economics and Geography. We assist University candidates in the preparation of entrance exams and motivation letters. We offer language support to students who choose to take degree and master’s courses in English.
Learn like the natives
For those students who are already native speaking or bilingual we also provide courses that mirror the learning taking place in English speaking countries at their age. We adapt the curriculum of British or American schools as opposed the English as a Second Language (ESL) format.
I have been using Mark Buckley's translation services for several years now, both professionally (translation of corporate websites, business letters, various presentations), personally, for my daughter and me (CV, motivation letters, various presentations).
I have always been very satisfied because Mark goes beyond simple translation, also improving the expression and effectiveness of the text, with appropriate words. I can only highly recommend this service, which is available both physically and via web conference. Thanks so much Mark!
Mark isn’t a conventional teacher, his approach is completely different from others teachers that I have ever seen in my life.
He is a smart and very pragmatic person, his lessons are never ordinary, they are always interesting. The same for his collaborators, who are highly trained.
They always strike the target in an unconventional way. Today I would say that Mark isn’t only my teacher but a friend.
My son of 13 has been learning English with Mark since he was 7 years old and has always been enthusiastic about it. Lessons have always been dynamic with practical and interesting topics. Having started from scratch, my son today is already able to follow movies in original English language.
Over the last 4 years, Mark has helped me improve my English, both written and spoken. We started off when in high school I had to take the IELTS exam, he was able to prepare me, even though I went to him close to the exam. Mark’s knowledge and skills helped me obtain a result which allowed me to be enrolled at a university in London. At university, Mark still helped me by reviewing the essays and reports. We worked together to identify where I made mistakes, the reason behind them, and how to avoid recurring errors in future documents. Mark is a great teacher, he is highly skilled and patient. He was able to make English lessons fun, easing the pressure from the exams, while providing an excellent preparation. I really enjoyed working with him.
