Valencia!

Just got back from a few wonderful days in Valencia at the annual meeting of Tandem International. This is a network of innovative schools in Europe and the Americas, which offer different and interesting programmes to students who want to learn English, Italian, French, German or Spanish.

Our hosts at the event were Eva, Fernando and Maxi from Taronja School, who treated us all like royalty and fed us the most delicious food. I'll never forget the paella that Fernando prepared!

All of the schools in the network are similar to Language in London: number of classrooms, quality of language courses etc. and so when we meet we spend time discussing how to look after our students and give them the best language learning experience in the world.

Thanks to Henning from Tandem Hamburg for the photos and I look forward to seeing everyone again next year when we meet in Berlin!

Tandem International at Language in London

What a busy weekend!

This year, Language in London was host to over 20 language schools from across Europe (France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Spain) and Canada - all members of the Tandem International network. As schools, we all have a common interest in indepence, quality and innovation.

On Friday we had workshops in the morning, where representatives from each school shared ideas on marketing, websites, quality control and European Union initiatives. In the afternoon we invited some agents to visit the school and learn about all the schools.

On Saturday we held our Annual General Meeting and discussed the exciting future of our group.

The best thing about these meetings is that it is a chance to meet other people - friends - who run schools, care about their students and want to offer the best possible language courses.

If you are interested in learning English, Spanish, French, Italian or German... then we probably have the school and course for you. Please have a look at http://www.tandem-schools.com/ and get in touch with the schools directly.

Here are some photos from the event.
