We understand that people lead busy lives, often juggling full time jobs and families, so leaving them to study abroad for long periods of time is not practical. We also appreciate that there is still a need for them to improve their English with experienced, fully qualified teachers at a British Council accredited school.
Our Online Classes with Tutorbranch have been developed to allow people to do exactly that. Students can choose to study as little or as much as they want at a time and place convenient to them. They can choose a purely online course or a blended course combining online with attendance at a traditional course at LILA*. The online classes provide a real-life lesson experience for students.
There is an interactive whiteboard, document sharing, online messenger and video chat, to allow students to have a completely interactive lesson with a LILA* teacher in real-time.
The times are arranged according to your availability (Monday to Friday).

studied General Englishstudent
»Everything I’d tried since I arrived at LILA I had a great feedback.
Since when I was hosted by Sarah and Craig until to finish my last class.
After studying in LILA, my afraid to speak english, even wrong, disappeared.
It was an amazing experience that I’ve never tried before!
I definitively recommend LILA as a great opportunity to learn english language, to keep in contact with people of the world and mainly, to live the atmosphere of this fantastic City "LIVERPOOL"

Rebecca Nerini Italy
studied General EnglishAn amazing experience
I studied 1 month in Lila Liverpool and it helped me a lot to improve my English! I also had the chance to meet new people, explore the city and discover new things about that incredible country. I truly recommend this school as teachers are professional, the social program is well structured, the school is located in the city centre and it's easy to get there (the bus station is really close). Furthermore I apreciated the fact that the nationalities in the classes were mixed! Thank you Lila!
