ll our Language Programmes enable teachers to consolidate a year's work with an overseas study and travel programme which will help their students develop their language skills.
LEARNING A LANGUAGE ABROAD...
Our wide range of travel and study programmes for Foreign Language teachers generally follow one of two options:
1. Centre based with classes and local excursions.
2. Touring programmes with less classroom content.
IT'S YOUR CHOICE...
Both options include multiple opportunities for project work and language practice for all abilities. However, all our language programmes are customised to meet the exact requirements of your school and can incorporate any combination of study programmes, classroom tuition, educational excursions, school visits and homestay experience.
HOMESTAYS...
If students have the necessary basic language skills, we recommend incorporating a homestay experience into every language programme to provide total immersion and maximum language exposure. The benefits of a homestay experience can include rapid improvement in language skills, a unique insight into the culture and way of life of a particular country and an enjoyable and truly educational experience for the student.
Our preferred locations for Homestay and Language Programmes are:
France - Tours, Paris or the Cote d'Azur
Spain - Madrid, Seville, Granada or Malaga
Italy - Siena or Florence
Germany - Berlin, Frankfurt or Düsseldorf
We can also offer intensive Language Programmes at dedicated Language centres in Spain, France and Italy where well-trained native speakers will teach your group in small compact classes. These programmes can range from a week to several months and can be operated in conjunction with a touring programme if requested.
