A Course to Suit You

We have selected courses and sometimes designed new ones to provide an inspiring language-learning and cultural experience. Here you can view a summary of our courses, available in most languages.

You will be level checked on the first day of your course and placed in the appropriate class to suit your ability. If you are a beginner, courses have set start dates. Other levels have extremely regular start dates.

Our Course Types

Survival Language for Beginners:
Learning the basics from 'scratch', you will be studying with people of your own level or you can study on a one-to-one basis in a school or in the home of a teacher and their family.

Intensive Language course:
An excellent way to progress in a language - join a small group of similar age and level people from an international mix and focus on communication skills in context. A combination course is where you join a group class in the morning and receive one-to-one in the afternoon.

Language for Work:
These programmes are tailored to the business and language needs of the student. They can be purely business orientated or a combination of general and business. We also arrange closed groups where a company wants to run a small group exclusively for their employees.

Refresher programme for Teachers:
These programmes focus on methodology and language development. They take place at specific times of the year in Germany, Spain and France.

Gap Year:
Long term language development programmes are suitable for students that are having 2 months to a year away from their studies in the UK.

Live and Study in a Teacher's home:
If you want to learn a language quickly and have an in- depth feel for the local and national culture, this is the course for you. You are placed in the home of a qualified language teacher and their family, receive one to one tuition in the morning and join in the daily life of a real family.

Culture and Language:
This course is designed for those who wish to learn a language in the context of the local culture. These programmes include excursions to areas of interest, lectures, parties as well as language tuition.

Walking-Talking Language:
A course that combines classroom learning with project based study out and about. Plenty of free time too to soak up the environment and the language.

Language Plus Special Interest:
If you want to indulge your passion and also learn the language then try your hand at cookery or wine-tasting in France, drawing in Italy or flamenco dancing in Spain.
