It's so easy and so much fun for younger learners to learn a language now. On the following pages of our website you'll find all the possibilities for this age-group (7-17) from summer camps to year-round programmes, and then more intensive higher studies preparation for older students.
These types of study abroad programmes are meticulously organised with safety the first priority. The defining feature of these programmes, as opposed to adult programmes, is that generally the students are looked after 24/7. Beyond security, the choice is just amazing: from learning Spanish and surfing in Cadiz, to living in a villa in Berlin with a small group of other students, to discovering central London or the Yorkshire moors, there's something for everyone.
The language learning aspect of each programme is rigorously planned, provided by experienced teachers whose job is to make learning fun. Alongside this, the activities programmes are planned to not just be fun but also educational, given students a chance to exercise their new-found language skills.
Each country and each culture runs their programmes in different ways, and more freedom is given to mature older students (16-17) but rest assured - the learning experience is second to none everywhere.
