Study English in The Philippines ｜Face to Face English School【F2F】 | Study in the Philippines

Lessons in Face to Face English School is based on one-on-one (one student to one teacher). As group lessons (10 to 20 students to one teacher) is the mainstream of studying English in Europe, it often happens that the students can only speak less than 5 minutes in a lesson.

Meanwhile, in the case of one-on-one lessons, you can speak as much as you want without having to worry about other people in the class, so you can learn English quickly.

Also, one-on-one lessons have an aim in each lesson and construct a program carefully, so it isn’t finished with just chit chat.

◎What purpose do the students learn English.

◎What area do students want to enhance and how to overcome their weakness.

◎How students want to use their English skill.

“We are planning one on one lessons for those students who “Want to use English for overseas travel”, “Want to immigrate to abroad” and “Want to use English in my business” etc.

In F2F, as we have prepared 5 or 9 hours of one on one lessons a day, if you stay just for a month, you can have a hundred hours of opportunities to speak English. It is 5 to 8 times more compared to studying English in Europe.

At F2F, the tuition fee ranges from 135,000 yen(around 1,220USD) for 4 weeks including 5 to 9 hours of private lessons and one-hour free group lesson with native English teachers. In addition, it includes not only lesson fees but also everything such as accommodation, meals, cleaning and washing fees. What an amazing offer!

As a school where native teachers are employed, it is the most reasonable price category in The Philippines.

Compared to F2F, the accommodation expenses and meals are often incurred separately in studying abroad in Europe, making it extremely expensive.
