Residential German language program
Summer study abroad programs on a college or university campus are a perfect solution to how to spend your summer. Programs can be from 2-6 weeks long and allow students to learn in a lively environment surrounded by activities, sports, culture, and other students their age. This program is less intensive, less concentrated on classic courses, and primarily targeted towards juniors and teenagers.
Certain programs have a closed campus policy, which ensures that kids will be under constant adult supervision.
Whatever your age or level, summer language courses for children and teenagers are a great way to improve your language skills. To avoid children and teenagers of the same mother tongue being gathered together during the summer, all our summer language courses are aimed at individuals and not groups of young people speaking the same language.
Our summer language courses for children and teenagers are all international programmes.
We offer various types of language holidays for children and teenagers: from the most economical with accommodation in a family, through residential programmes on a university campus or in a public school, which always include cultural or sports activities, to the most serious for young people who already have an advanced level of language.
Language holidays for children and teenagers are also available in total immersion, such as total immersion language holidays with a host family or language holidays with a teacher. In this case, the young parrticipants are only in contact with locals. Completely isolated from their mother tongue, children and teenagers have no alternative but to use the local language to communicate.
On-campus language study programmes cover a wide range of situations.
For example, a summer language study programme for children or teenagers allows young people to live, study and do activities on the same site. This could be a university campus or a public school campus. For students, a language study programme on campus means that you can take courses on the campus of a university abroad and, if necessary, stay in the campus residence, but sometimes students can choose accommodation off the university campus.
There are also language study programmes on campus for adults during the summer, with courses and accommodation on the university campus.
Some language study programmes are offered at universities to enable students to take courses that are not language courses but specialised courses (art, architecture, fashion design, business, etc.). These language study programmes are reserved for people with a more advanced level of language.
