Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Your London Tutor (YLT) is a London-based English language training company founded by Phil Hatcher. We specialise in creating bespoke English language programmes for independent learners, professionals and companies. Our founder-led approach ensures a consistent standard of quality and expertise across every programme we create.

At YLT, our trainers are selected for their exceptional knowledge, passion for language coaching and dedication to developing the people we work with.

Rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach, our training programmes are built around the specific needs, goals and learning preferences of our customers. English language training becomes transformative when it connects directly to your personal and professional aspirations. This principle underpins our work at YLT.

We offer three main types of personalised English language programmes:

  • One-to-one training: Specialist trainers and pronunciation experts deliver personalised business English training and general English coaching. Every session focuses entirely on your development and aligns with your interests and learning goals.
  • Group training: Available in two formats – business English training to build workplace communication, or general English courses for independent learners who enjoy collaborative training whilst meeting new people.
  • Immersive learning: Our Explore London immersion programmes combine English language development with cultural experiences across London with your personal language trainer. These are ideal for language learners and international professionals seeking to enhance their everyday English while exploring the capital.

Absolutely. We work with companies to create and deliver bespoke English training programmes to help individuals and teams communicate more effectively while developing essential workplace communication skills. 

Companies like Octopus Energy have seen first-hand how our approach leads to measurable improvements in communication and cross-team collaboration. Read how we delivered a personalised in-house English programme for this global energy provider.

We offer flexible training options based on your preferences and needs:

  • Online English training: Our flexible online programmes deliver the same personalised approach as in-person sessions, ensuring you receive expert support regardless of your location.
  • In-person English training in London: We offer face-to-face English training in London, creating an immersive learning environment that allows for direct interaction with our trainers.
  • On-site business English training: We deliver bespoke business English training at company offices, making it convenient for teams and organisations to receive tailored training in their workplace environment.
  • London immersion programmes: Our unique immersion experiences combine English language training with cultural exploration across London, allowing you to practise your English skills whilst discovering the capital.
