Customised online language courses for individuals or groups—anytime, anywhere
View packagesOnline courses are accessible from anywhere with an internet connection. Clients love the convenience and flexibility of online courses, which result in increased focus, time savings, and improved efficiency. One of the biggest benefits of online courses is that we can choose the perfect language coach from a pool of experienced trainers from Slovenia and beyond.
For seamless course delivery, you will only need a computer or smart device (phone, tablet) with a camera and microphone, along with internet access. We assist you in choosing the optimal platform based on your preferences. Online courses differ from in-person courses in the use of interactive tools to ensure maximum engagement and focus during language learning.
We prioritise understanding your language wishes before preparing programmes and materials to meet your specific needs. Our focus is always on your language progress.
Our language coaches are professional and flexible. They know how to motivate, help, and actively listen. With their open nature, they create a relaxed atmosphere and a safe learning environment.
Let us know about the most favourable times and places for language learning and the challenges posed by other commitments in your schedule. We will work together to determine an ideal place and time for your language course.

A language course represents both a financial investment and a commitment of time and effort. To ensure that you make a well-informed decision, we have compiled a list of the most frequently asked questions during the process of finding the right language course provider.
When selecting the right language coach for you, we take into consideration multiple factors such as your language needs, preferences, current language skills, location, and schedule. Based on the information provided, our education department will carefully select the most appropriate language coach for you. We will inform you about our selection before the course starts, and prior to your first meeting, the language coach will also send you a welcome message.
In general, the optimal frequency of meetings is 2 times per week, with each session lasting for an hour and a half (90 minutes). This schedule is especially recommended for individuals who are already in (fairly) regular contact with the target language and are looking for a fast and efficient way to improve.
We suggest more frequent meetings for those who urgently require knowledge but are new to learning the language. For individuals who already possess a strong understanding and regularly use the language, or wish to consistently improve over an extended period, we recommend scheduling meetings once a week.
After the meetings, the language coach will also provide you with engaging content in a foreign language, enabling you to stay in contact with the language outside the course.
Our courses are offered both online and in-person throughout Slovenia. If the course entails any travel costs, we will inform you in advance. Although our offices are located in Ljubljana, we always strive to find a LanguageSitter from your area. We are flexible when it comes to location: the course can be held at your home, workplace, or a café of your choice.
While it is true that our prices may be higher compared to other providers, we believe that our tailored approach to meeting your specific needs and utilising your own materials makes our method extremely effective. As a result, you will require fewer lessons and spend less time learning the language, making it more cost-effective in the long term.
It is believed that achieving independent use of a foreign language requires between 400 and 600 hours of study, with a minimum of half of these hours dedicated to independent learning, which must take place (almost) every day. The level of a basic user, who can understand and respond to basic speech in the target language using simple sentences, can be achieved within 90 hours of consistent work.
Below, we have listed the key factors that have an impact on the speed of language learning:
- Past experience with language learning. Learning foreign languages becomes increasingly easier and faster with each new language learned, especially if the new language belongs to the same language family.
- Language selection. Becoming fluent in languages from vastly different language families or those using unfamiliar sounds and vocabulary not written in the Latin script will require a more substantial time investment.
- Your personal standards for language proficiency. Language serves as a tool for communication, and in order to effectively communicate, one must have a conversation partner. Therefore, the main criterion for language proficiency should be the ability to effectively understand and be understood by one's conversation partner. Despite the mistakes.
- Time dedicated to learning a language. In addition to taking a course, it is important to actively practice and immerse oneself in the language outside of the course. Limiting language learning only to a language school can impede progress and significantly slow down the learning process, as opposed to incorporating the language into daily life. We will gladly help you find ways to achieve that.
- Exposure to language. The more opportunities you have to actively practice the language, the quicker the learning process will be.
- Course selection. Maximise language progress by combining self-study with expert guidance, especially if independent learning is a new challenge for you. In group courses, the progress is determined by the group's overall pace. Individual courses ensure faster progress as your progress is not slowed down by the number of participants.
Significant improvement was usually observed after just 30 hours, though basic users are advised to enrol in a 60-hour course for optimal results. Reach out to us for a comprehensive course proposal.
