Academic Summer Camps and Living Learning English Stronger Together
On 28th August 2025, Academic Summer announced the acquisition of Living Learning English, making the start of an exciting new era for both company. For 30 years, Living Learning English has been known worldwide for its bespoke one-on-one home tuition and online programme. Thousands of students from children to teenagers to professionals and embassy staff, have benefitted from its unique blend of English language teaching and cultural immersion.
When two trusted names in international education share the same values, coming together makes perfect sense and they are Stronger Together.
Helen Lami, CEO of Academic Summer, and Kate Hargreaves, founder of Living Learning English, have known each other for over 20 years. This is not simply a business decision, it is a meeting of shared values, friendship and a common belief in personalised learning and academic excellence.
Both brands will keep their own identity. Together they offer more choice than ever — summer camps in London and Bristol for children and teenagers ages 7–17, one-to-one home tuition in the UK and Spain, and online English courses for all ages and levels, all year round.
