English tuition

English plays a major role in students’ daily lives, whether they’re exposed to the language in films, everyday use or social media. This natural way of learning is not always fully explored and put into practice at school. This is exactly where porta mundi comes in. We make sure our students can link the words and expressions they already know (often subconsciously) with the correct grammar. This makes learning English fun not only in everyday life, but also in an academic setting.

What is correct?

,,In you’re neighborhood they're too more dogs then in my.'' or ,,In your neighborhood there are two more dogs than in mine.’’ porta mundi porta mundi highlights every possible stumbling block and helps you to achive your personal mile stones.


FAQ - English Tuition

  • Children needs to be supported in a goal oriented way and the level and knowledge of the child needs to be addressed in each subject. This can be optimally covered in individual lessons, because not only the pupils play an essential role, but also the teachers of the respective school. Each teacher decides to a certain extent on the criteria for assessment in English. Some focus more on vocabulary, others on grammar and some teachers value speaking the most.

    Porta mundi not only supports the students with their homework, but also analyses with them their learning techniques, the requirements of the school and can thus achieve the best possible improvement through targeted exam preparation. Extracurricular support in English is central, as the children's success also depends on English in their further careers and at work. The teachers convey joy in the language, bring great experience with them and offer optimal tutoring through online or direct support.

    English is not only important at school, but also plays an immensely important role in everyday life. This starts with films, in exchanges with people from other cultures or even in social media. English is a world language that cannot be separated from the other subjects, but is essential for every other profile of the students. It is not without reason that many grammar schools offer a bilingual Matura, in which various subjects, including mathematics, are taught in English.

    The schools have long since recognised the importance of English in education and thus cater to the later needs of the students. Every teacher, whether in primary, secondary or grammar school, has recognised the importance of English in everyday life, at school level and in life. Through tutoring in English, children become more aware of this subject, learn the material holistically and thus gain important experience for further schooling.

    English is not only important in education, but also in later professional life. In the globalised world, language is more important than ever for every child. A solid education, coupled with holistic tutoring, lays the foundation for the widest possible choice of professions and opportunities.

Tutoring ensures that students achieve their goals in life and do so in all subjects and skills.

    English is a core competence that needs to be promoted early and in a targeted manner and this is exactly where porta mundi comes in. English tutoring not only prepares the child for the subject, but also for life outside school. Grades are certainly an important aspect, as they reflect the current level, but English tutoring also focuses on success in the professional world. Porta mundi knows the criteria for a successful career and ensures that students learn not only for the subject but also for life.

  • Language study trips undoubtedly provide a good basis for immersion in a language and culture. Nevertheless, targeted one-to-one tuition or tutoring in small groups has an immense positive impact on learning, as the support is tailor-made and thus the learning success can be ensured. The positive side is also that the child is not tied to a specific location and can be taught online or on-site in Zurich. This means that there is no break in learning, parents do not have to plan their availabilities around tutoring and optimal support is ensured by constant unchanging teachers. In one-to-one tuition, it is essential that the chemistry between teacher and student is right and porta mundi ensures this by carefully selecting its teachers.

    Furthermore, in one-to-one lessons, whether online or in Zurich, there is no risk of distraction from external influences.
    Careful selection of the setting, learning techniques and teacher lead to more positive evaluations at school, give the child self-confidence and strengthen the belief in their own abilities.This advantage can be lost in English tutoring in another country because the focus is not on networking with the current school level, teachers do not interact with parents, homework is not completed to the same extent and the needs and goals of individual children are not addressed.The offer of porta mundi focuses on holistic tutoring, knows the requirements of the school level, is in exchange with the parents and thus offers comprehensive support in which the work is also enjoyable.
