Yes! You can start your course at
any time. Our courses are designed so that every lesson can be studied
independently. If you want to start in September at the same time as the
school year, then that's fine. And if you want to start in the middle of
January or at the end of May, that's fine too!
What will I study
in each lesson?
ñ
At lot! Each lesson includes several
different ways of improving your English. You will learn grammar,
increase your vocabulary and improve your pronunciation. You will listen
to real English, watch videos, do interesting interactive activities and
test your progress regularly. You will never be short of new material to
help you improve your English in an efficient and enjoyable way.
Do I have to study every
day? What if I don't have time?
ñ
The choice is yours. We will do our
absolute maximum to provide you with stimulating material which will
make you want to study hard every week! The more
often you read and listen to English, the better. But in the end
your are the master of your progress.
What is the best way to study?
ñ
Every
week! Little by little, and regularly is the best way. It is
also a good idea to go back and review earlier lessons from time to
time. And above all - have English in your heads, eyes, ears, mouths and
fingers as often as possible! We will do our best to help.
Why is your
system better?
ñ
We have spent years developing a system
specially designed to make language learning interesting and effective
for today's busy lifestyle. Each lesson offers you both serious learning
and many opportunities to experience real English as used by real native
speakers. You will be motivated by our short and varied exercises and
our fresh, exciting approach. We are waiting to welcome you to Hotch

Why did you create Hotch Potch English?
ñ
To share
the great passion of learning a language with as many as
possible! This should be a pleasure, but many people have bad memories
of school lessons and even boring websites! Our aim was to create a
place where people could enjoy learning again and have fun making
progress through original and motivating exercises and lessons.

~ Payment ~
How do I pay?
ñ
We use Paypal, the world's
most popular on-line secure payment system.
Is it safe?
ñ
Absolutely.
Paypal, part of eBay, is the biggest secure global
on-line payments system, and is trusted by millions of people. It is
actually much safer than traditional methods of payment. We never
see your bank details and have no access to your personal information at
any time.
What if I don't have
a Paypal account?
ñ
No problem. Paypal now
accepts many credit cards directly. You do not have to become a
member of Paypal to buy your Hotch Potch English Language
Packs.
What if I don't have a credit
card?
ñ
Bank transfers
are also possible - please get in touch with us directly for your
special payment requirements.
Will I be charged
automatically every year?
ñ
No. If you decide to continue for a second year you
will need to buy a new pack. Of course we hope you will do this and stay
with us for many years!
Can I get a refund?
ñ
Of course
if you would prefer not to continue just tell us at any time in the
first 30 days after you buy your pack and we will give you a full
refund. And you keep your introductory gifts too.
What discounts do you offer?
ñ
Lots! All of our Language Packs
offer an excellent 33% discount on the price of the individual modules.
And if you buy all our modules together it goes up to 50%!
Do you have gift vouchers?
ñ
Yes. There are two ways to offer our
Language Packs as a gift. 1) Buy the pack and include a message with the
name and e-mail of the person. We will send a message to that person
with a beautiful gift voucher telling them about your gift. 2) Ask us to
send a gift voucher to the person and let them visit the site and choose
their Language Pack. Then buy the pack for them with a note telling us
who it is for. A fantastic present for an enthusiastic English learner!

Why is learning English so difficult?
ñ
Is it really more difficult than any
other language? It all depends on your teachers and the method used, as
well, of course, as your mother tongue and your previous language
learning experiences. With our highly motivating and enjoyable method
based on real English and fast, fun activities, you will be sure to
progress faster than ever before. We are always here to support you so
give it a try!
What about schools and companies?

We have created
special School and Company Language Learning Packs just for you! You
create your custom Language Pack and choose the number of student
accesses (by e-mail) you want. We can also work with you to define the
best possible solution for your educational establishment or enterprise.
Then the courses continue just like any of our other packs. If you want
to modify the packs or add special features such as progress testing or
individual coaching of students or employees, just let us know.
