Can anyone recommend some good companies that offer ski coaching for an intermediate skier. I specifically want something hassle free which includes ski hire, lift pass accommodation, transfers and flights if possible.
Thanks

@MJJ, welcome to SnowHeads.
Are you thinking of 1:1 tuition, small groups (<7) or larger groups?
Time(s) of year and any budget expectations?

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

@MJJ, welcome to snowHeads. Inside Out Skiing offer a range of different ski coaching holidays suitable for intermediate skiers, all of which includes accommodation options and some of which include a full package with flights. A number of members of snowHeads are regulars on our holidays, as well as training with us in the U.K. please click on the link in my signature at the bottom of this post for more info, or feel free to ask questions here.

I’d be looking at November/December time. Small or large group and nothing more than £800

I think £800 is a bit low for the sort of package you are looking for. You could probably squeeze close to that figure on the PSB, where the base price includes the accommodation, food, lift pass and transfers. You also get access to top ski instructors for group or personal tuition, and a very good deal on ski hire. You do have to book your own flights.
And of course, a chance to spend a week with as congenial a bunch of ski nuts as you are ever likely to meet.
What's not to like?

Think you will struggle for that budget. Only thing that I think would get close for £800 all in would be UCPA.

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

You will be looking at double your budget for everything all in for anything decent.
Look at
Warren Smith. Snoworks. Freshtracks with ski Club of Great Britain.. Looks at how many days teaching you get and how long the day is. Cheaper options often are less days or half days

Inside out didn't seem to suggest that - £688 for the course + flights, transfers, lift pass.

Great. I'd be interested to know how good it is?
But fantastic prices for what there offering. Some of the ones I've been on do work out quite a lot more. But I've got a lot for the money

It's brilliant! (although I might be a bit biased - see my signature)
That price (which doesn't include flights or lift pass) is for our Season Opener trip to Meribel, and is pitched at a very competitive rate because we have negotiated a great price in a great chalet. Other trips at different times of the winter are more expensive, depending mainly on the cost of the "holiday" part of the package (flights, transfers, accommodation, etc). Many of our clients are regulars (some in this thread) and do more than one trip with us each winter, as well as skiing with us at Hemel for the rest of the year so we understand the need to keep prices as keen as we can make them.

Transfers from GVA included, with a choice of departure times to match your flight choice.
