Summer courses

Summer courses provide 15 hours of tuition for beginner students. They are usually taught over one weekend  or 1 week or 2.5 weeks. The courses are aimed at preparing those who are heading abroad and want to learn the essentials such as greeting, ordering food and asking for directions before their travels begin. 

We run a smaller portfolio of languages in the summer, such as:  

• Arabic

• French 

• Greek 

• German 

• Portuguese

• Spanish

Teaching style

We use the immersion method of language teaching. This means majority of the course will be conducted in the language of study. Our teachers use a communicative approach in class, practising the following four skills:

• Speaking
• Reading
• Listening
• Writing

Students engage in interactive language activities, participating in group and pair work according to a syllabus based on systematic grammatical progression.
