Welcome to the Finch Languages Blog!

First of all, welcome!  It’s fantastic that you’re seeking English-language classes and on the road to a more interesting future. Language learning really does open the world, and we provide a productive and enjoyable place to to it.

Who are we?

Finch Languages has been created around what we think language learning should feel like, and we strive to provide the environment in which you feel like you’re achieving, like you’re developing yourself, and like you’re proving to yourself that you can do it.  Language learning is tough, but with hard work, time, commitment and the right learning environment, it is possible!

Language learning provides quite incredible opportunities in every aspect of one’s life: community, cultural learning, cognitive development, professional and academic opportunities, emotional intelligence and more.  We design our English courses and classes so that you can realise these opportunities and progress towards your goals, whatever they might be.

Why are we different?

In order to provide the best offering possible, we take absolute care in designing our private and group courses.  This way, students gain as much as possible out of them.  This means that you’ll stay motivated on your language-learning journey, gaining much more than traditional language teaching offers.  What does this mean in practice?

• All courses, even group courses, are personalised.  We listen to your ideas and feedback, and apply this learning in a dynamic manner.

• Our group courses strive to give you more than typical English-language learning: community, professional and academic development, subject-specific knowledge, motivation, and inspiration.

• Finch Languages teachers are compassionate and caring.  Learning a language is difficult, and we want to make the process as pleasant, enjoyable and productive as possible.
