English courses in private lessons – personal, flexible and focused

You want to learn English and are looking for lessons that fit naturally into your everyday life?
At Topdeck Languages, you learn English in one-to-one private lessons, adapted to your level and your pace – without group pressure and without fixed course schedules.

Whether you are just beginning or would like to refine your existing English skills, this page gives you an overview of all English courses from A1 to C1 and how private lessons are organised.

Learning English in private lessons – what makes the difference

Private lessons offer a kind of freedom that is rarely possible in group courses:
freedom in scheduling, learning pace, lesson format and content.

The lessons are planned around you – your goals, your availability and your way of learning – rather than around a group or a predefined programme.

Lesson times that work for you

Lesson times are arranged directly with you. Together, we find regular appointments that fit naturally into your schedule and allow for steady progress.

Start when you are ready

There is no fixed course start. In most cases, you can begin as soon as you decide to move forward.

A clear focus, at your pace

In private lessons, we decide together what to focus on. We spend more time on topics you want to develop further and move on where you already feel confident.

Online, in person or a mix of both

Lessons can take place online, in person, or as a combination of the two.
If your situation changes, the lesson format can be adjusted easily.

Which English courses can you take?

English courses are available at all levels:

  • English course A1 – getting started with the language

  • English course A2 – building confidence and structure

  • English course B1 – expressing yourself more independently

  • English course B2 – communicating clearly and precisely

  • English course C1 – working with nuance, style and written language

All courses are taught in one-to-one private lessons and follow a clear structure, adapted to your level and your goals.

Who usually chooses private lessons?

Private lessons are particularly suitable for adults who:

  • want to use their learning time consciously and effectively

  • appreciate personal guidance

  • prefer a calm, focused learning environment

  • want to work on their own language priorities

  • feel that group courses do not meet their needs

Many learners choose private lessons because they want to learn with clarity and direction, without unnecessary detours.

Frequently asked questions about private English lessons

How quickly will I see progress?
Progress depends on your starting level, how regularly you attend lessons and what you would like to achieve. In private lessons, time is used in a focused and meaningful way, as each session is tailored to you.

How often should I take lessons?
We discuss this together and look at what is realistic for your everyday life. Based on that, you decide what learning rhythm suits you best.

Can lessons focus on exam preparation?
Yes. Private lessons can also be used to prepare for English language exams, such as Cambridge exams or IELTS.
You can find further information on the page Exam preparation in private English lessons.

Do I need to commit long-term?
No. You book a lesson package with a fixed number of lessons and decide afterwards, at your own pace, whether and how you would like to continue.

I have tried multiple versions of language school and find Top Deck run by Anisa is by far the best! Anisa is a talented and dedicated teacher who really knows how to make learning fun and individualized. I highly recommend TopDeck for all of your German/English learning needs! 👍👍

Anisa ist eine super Lehrerin und ich würde sie jederzeit weiterempfehlen. Sie ist individuell auf meine Bedürfnisse eingegangen und hat die Lektionen entsprechend and mich angepasst. Sehr geduldig, motivierend und freundlich. Die Möglichkeit die Lektionen via Skype zu machen ist ein sehr grosser Pluspunkt. Danke!

Mi sono trovata molto bene e mi è servito molto per la crescita nella lingua tedesca. L’insegnate è molto professionale e talentuosa, riesce a capire i tuoi punti forti e quelli un po’ meno o dove c’è una mancanza, lavora su questi ultimi in modo non invasivo ma con leggerezza e semplicità in modo da comprendere facilmente. Le lezioni si svolgono fluentemente e non in maniera pesante. La consiglio a chi ha dei blocchi e non riesce ad andare avanti nella lingua tedesca.

Anisa est une super enseignante d’allemand : patiente, motivante, toujours à l’écoute. Ses explications sont claires, la progression est adaptée à mon niveau, et chaque cours est très agréable. En plus d’être très compétente Anisa est une personne très gentille, flexible et arrangeante. Oui, c’était vraiment super ! Je n’ai jamais été aussi motivée à apprendre l’allemand. Vielen Dank für alles, Anisa – bis bald ! 🙃
