Language Studies Overseas – Language Courses

About Us

We are a family run company specialising in Spanish, French, German, Russian and Portuguese language courses abroad. Our courses are aimed at people who would like to improve their language skills, as well as those who would like to start a language from scratch. Our schools are hand-picked by experienced language teachers. Schools are chosen on the basis of the quality of their teaching and small class sizes. Our schools offer a wide range of courses and offer a variety of quality accommodation options.

Our primary concern is to find the right school for each individual. A language adviser is on hand to give advice to prospective students who need help in deciding which language course is right for them. Because we only use a select number of schools, we are able to offer competitive rates. We aim to offer a personal and friendly service with great value for money. We do not charge VAT on our prices and, unlike other agencies, we do not charge commission on schools; so we keep the prices as low as possible.

What courses are on offer?

Our general language courses cater for the needs of the beginner through to the most advanced. Age is no barrier. We offer third age courses as well as GCSE and A level revision courses for those still at school. We also offer gap year programmes and work experience placements overseas, in addition to diploma courses, business language courses and teaching methodology programmes for teachers. All of our schools use interactive teaching methods, which emphasize the oral communication of the target language. All teachers are fully qualified experienced native speakers and the target language is used throughout classes.

What type of accommodation is available?

We offer a range of accommodation options. Students can choose from host families, shared self-catering student apartments, bed-sits, student residences and hotel accommodation. We are able to advise on accommodation requirements for individual students.

When can I start?

Courses start every Monday year round. There are special dates, however, for beginners, and certain courses (such as business language courses and diploma courses) only take place at certain times of the year. Please contact us for further details.
