For our 6 and 12 lesson packages we offer trial lessons. If you have the trial lesson and like the class and decide to buy a package, that trial lesson counts as your first paid lesson from the package. If you don't like the lesson and don't want to buy a package then the trial lesson is free!

Individual Classes

If you are unable to attend your regular lesson time (which is agreed on before paying for the classes), you’re very welcome to contact Jacob to see if it’s possible to reschedule. While we’ll always do our best to help, alternative times can’t be guaranteed. If no suitable availability is possible, the lesson will be lost. 

Pair Classes

The same as individual classes - if both students aren't able to make the usual time you can try to rearrange the class with Jacob. If no rearrangement is possible the lesson will be lost.

If just one student comes to class the other student simply misses out on the class.

Once you choose a lesson package and agree on a lesson time you will receive a payment link for the full lesson package. All lesson packages are paid for in full up front. After paying you have that slot in Jacob's calendar guaranteed for the length of your package. 

We do not offer the option to pay in instalments or monthly.

In-person classes take place in our modern office in the centre of Prague (next to Můstek metro station). Individual lessons can also take place at a pre-arranged place in central Prague (potential extra travel fee for longer travel)

Our online classes take place on Google Meet. After buying a package and choosing a lesson time you will receive a weekly calendar event which contains the link to the lesson - there's nothing for you to do as the event will show up in your calendar automatically! We also put the link to the Google Doc for your lesson notes in the same event!

No. Our courses are based on improving your real-life communication skills as fast as possible. Exams such as FCE and CAE are very specific and studying for them is as much about learning how to answer questions in the way they want as it is about your actual level of English. For exam preparation we recommend you find a teacher or school that specialises in such exams. If you're interested in real-life improvements in lessons that get straight to the point then we recommend learning with us!

Jacob's classes are organised into 60min blocks in order to keep simple scheduling, but for special cases we can arrange 90min classes if it works with the schedule. 90min classes are simple 1.5x the cost of 60min classes.

No. Our courses are designed for adults and we have no classes for children or plans to teach children in the future.

Currently we are focused on the private individual market, but Jacob has over a decade of experience teaching in companies so special agreements could be made if it was with the right company. 

If you buy a lesson package and then go on holiday we can offer you online lessons while you're on holiday at the same lesson time. 

If this does not work then you will unfortunately lose those lessons.

Languages With A Twist is not a VAT-payer, so the stated prices are the final prices you pay, with no extra taxes or VAT added to the invoice.

Yes and yes. You can request an invoice when you buy a package of lessons.

If you want to pay for lessons through your company that is fine - just give us the company details to add to the invoice.

Not currently. 

Jacob has been learning Czech for ten years and is often complimented by Czechs on his level. If declension didn't exist his level would be advanced. As declension exists, he makes a lot of declension mistakes but has a practically fluent level for day to day communication.
