Welcome to the
Courses
We aim to enable our students to learn as much as possible in the time available to them, whilst at the same time ensure that they have a thoroughly enjoyable experience that they will want to repeat!
Whether you are coming for just one week or for several months, we want you to feel at the end of your course that you learned far more than you had imagined possible, and that what you have learned is not just theory, but a practical ability to communicate in the language, to understand and to make yourself understood.
Our Schools in Europe
As every student is different and their reasons for studying are varied, our schools provide a wide range of courses.
All levels are offered, from complete beginner to advanced learner.
Most courses run throughout the year and students can normally start on any Monday, except in the case of complete beginners, for whom there are specific start dates.
Students can choose courses of 15, 20, 25 or 30 lessons per week.
Our Schools in Latin America
There are 'Third Age' courses (55 years plus) which are specifically designed to meet the needs and interests of the more mature student, as well as 'Summer Schools' for the younger learner.
Some of our schools also offer "A-level Revision Courses" for students who are studying for this exam.
Teaching Approach
Our schools employ only highly qualified native tutors with proper training and experience in the teaching of their language to foreigners. The students come from a wide variety of nationalities and language learning experiences. Group sizes are small and the teaching approach is student-centred.
Modern 'communicative' teaching techniques are used, with students learning the language through using it, and not just 'studying' it passively. Learning a language is a practical skill, which anyone is capable of, and which is best acquired by intensive practise and maximum exposure to the language.
At the same time, the importance of grammar is not neglected, with frequent grammatical explanations being given in order to reinforce and deepen the students' knowledge of and ability to use the language.
Finally, of course, language learning must be fun and non-threatening if it is to be effective. People learn much better when they are enjoying themselves and so our teachers do all they can to ensure that the lessons are both serious and intensive but at the same time very enjoyable!
