Welcome to Kemp Academy

Kemp Academy is the culmination of over 20 years experience, teaching languages to Spanish speaking students. Building on the success and experience of launching PACT International several years ago, for a small group of private schools in London, in addition to organizing and running highly successful courses for Canigó and Orvalle, Maria Kemp and her husband Dr. Ian Kemp now offer your child a unique opportunity to learn English in the heart of their beautiful home Linnet House.

We recognise that as a younger family member this is quite possibly the first time that your child has been away from home. It is therefore so important to us that this experience is overwhelmingly positive. To that end we invite your son or daughter to join us in our home as part of the “Kemp family”. Great care has been taken to create a nurturing family atmosphere to enable your child to not only significantly enhance their command of the English language but also to grow in confidence and independence.

To immerse your child at all times in an authentic British childhood experience and create a homely environment groups are always restricted to a maximum number of sixteen participants. The sixteen “family members” will be divided into two or three small classes to learn English depending on their ability.

Our curriculum draws heavily on the rich history and cultural heritage of the surroundings. Highlights include trips to both Edinburgh and Inveraray castles as well as Glasgow’s museums and Loch Lomond.

Each course is a unique and very much exclusive opportunity for a small number of children.
