I am currently at Japanese level 3 with Cactus. the group lessons are well structured and engaging. Our tutor give us good time to practice our speaking and listening skills via group exercises. I like also the fact that our tutor give us facts about Japanese cultures from time to time while explaining how the culture affects the way certain things are being said. I feel that I am progressing at a good pace and I will keep going with Cactus in my next continuation course.

Good lecturer who makes the lessons varied and interesting. Fair division of chance to speak and to read.

the only frustrating thing was that a large enough group could not be collected TWICE for my course and i eventually had to compromise on location.

Really excellent, structured teaching, small groups and very professional teachers. Can't recommend it highly enough.

Excellent teacher, really knows his students. Central location in Manchester is hugely convenient. Course materials are easy to access. The website isn't always very clear regarding what course to enrol on or continue with, but if you do make a mistake (as I have done) an email to the Cactus team sorts it out very quickly.

I enjoyed the lessons however I Cactus did not deliver on the 10 lessons promised as after we had completed 9 my tutor was informed that she had to carry out the 10th in a pub! Quite outraged as given the tutor was a volunteer. I don't know what I'm paying for if Cactus can't provide us with a classroom.

We are sorry to hear of your experience. However, we need to point out that none of our teachers are volunteers. All of our teachers are paid professionals. In very rare circumstances when a course occasionally over-runs due to absence and our facilities are not available, we may need to find an alternative location, such as a library. We are sorry your substitute location was not suitable. If you would like to email us at info@languagecoursesuk.co.uk we would be happy to discuss your situation and provide compensation.

I really enjoyed learning with Cactus, the teacher and methods used made learning fun and interesting, and we quickly progressed. I used to think I wouldn't like online classes but now I know that with the right teacher and methods, it can be just as good or even better than face-to-face.

Brilliant - I am learning German and Portuguese. I loved the face to face courses before pandemic but as you get higher in proficiency level it was difficult to find enough people locally to form a class so online class is a brilliant solution. I still feel like we have a little community within each class even though we are located all over UK.

Excellent teaching. The teacher provided was a native speaker of the language and was able to tailor the course around the group's needs and still managed to keep the lessons entertaining and enjoyable at the end of a busy day!

I have already done two conversation classes (competent level) with two different teachers and both courses have been really enjoyable. Lots of good and varied activities as prompts for discussions with useful quick recaps on certain grammar points. I went to Spain for a few days after the second course and found that my fluency had really improved. I have already enrolled for a third course.

I studied Japanese with Cactus. The course was great, very informative and well set out lessons. My teacher (Rie Wakayama) was amazing, cannot give her enough credit! She is so knowledgeable and set out the lessons perfectly. The homework was very helpful and all my questions were answered clearly. I have already signed up for the next course. 🙂
