Structured. Professional. Curriculum-driven.

Our teachers are hired and trained by the school for their clarity, professionalism, and ability to teach both online and face-to-face.
They are based in Johannesburg and Cape Town and teach according to your program format and availability.
All teachers follow our internal standards for methodology, assessments, and learner support.
To protect your learning experience, teachers do not engage in personal contact outside lessons. This ensures a safe, professional, and respectful environment.
We operate as a school, not a tutoring marketplace. Our curriculum defines what is taught, how it is taught, and how progress is measured.
Teachers rotate intentionally as you progress to maintain quality, expose you to different accents, and support long-term consistency.
Teachers are assigned by the school, not chosen by students, based on your level, goals, time zone, and learning stage.
