We run special "free lesson days" multiple times throughout the year where you can come and try a lesson for free - sign up to our newsletter to get information about when these are happening. You can also see what our group classes look like in our full-length videos of group classes on our YouTube channel.

We do not have the option to join an existing group for a trial lesson. This means when you book a course you will not ever have random trial students joining your lessons - you will always be with your mini group of maximum 5 students which we think leads to a more comfortable atmosphere in classes.

For our 6 and 12 individual 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.

Group Classes

If you miss a group class you simply lose the lesson. We do not offer the option to join another group to make up for the lost lesson.

Once you choose a lesson package and agree on a lesson time you will receive an invoice with a QR payment link for the full lesson package. All lesson packages are paid for in full up front. 

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 individual 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.

We offer in-company classes on a case-by-case basis, with customised prices based on number of students, location and lesson type. 

If you buy an individual lesson package and then go on holiday we can offer you online lessons while you're on holiday at the same lesson time. If you bought a group package you will 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 - in fact all students receive an invoice for their 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.

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.
