International Language School: Education First
It’s a universal truth that the perfect way to learn a language is to visit its bearer-country.
As a matter of fact, in order to plunge into the cultural world of that country, the best way to make the most of your stay is to attend a language school. You can always combine language studies with vacations and fun.
But there are so many various summer school programs and locations that it would take a while to find the one you really need that will have the very options and features you’re looking for.
However, there is one institution that can set you free from all these problems. It is the Education First (EF) school. It has a history of more than 40 years, which makes it one of the most known and qualified language schools in the world.
The schools of EF are in some of the greatest locations all over the world. In each country you will be able to get to know the people and learn their native language. There are EF schools in Munich, Nice, Paris, Barcelona, Malaga, Quito, Costa Rica, Rome, Shanghai, Australia, South Africa, New Zealand, Great Britain and the US.
The EF offers you not only language courses, but also excursions around the places of interest of the country and special discussions on its culture. Moreover, if you want to practice more than one language, you can choose the option “Language Year,” which allows you to take up language courses in every location you choose, during 9 months (6 weeks per one language course). Only think about it, with EF you can travel all around the world, make so many new friends, experience new adventures and become a respectable part of the EF culture exchange program.
The language courses can help you improve your language skills, no matter how old (EF has special junior schools for children over 13) and how much you know. The EF staff carries out an initial test, in order to put you into a corresponding group.
Depending on your level, you will be able to choose the subjects you want to study, for example writing skills, communication skills, grammar, vocabulary improvement or business language. The regular lessons are combined with the special “EFfects System,” which is a complete internet course with special videos, exercises and learning methods. Moreover, you can carry the “EF podEnglish” (a special course intended for iPod usage) video courses around on your iPod and watch them whenever and wherever you find time.
At the EF schools you can meet people from over 100 countries and 5 continents. Sharing your time with them will make your stay at school even more pleasant and unforgettable. EF organizes huge parties, competitions, games – anything you like – in order to fill your time. And it really works: studying at one of the EF schools means spending wonderful time, and never getting enough of it!
You will have to choose between a stay in a hotel, residence, student hostel or a host family, depending on what you can afford.
EF can even help you to enter a university in the country you choose, after passing a 3 or 6 month course there.
So if you want to learn a language, imake new friends, learn other cultures, see the world and simply enjoy your life, EF is the perfect place to turn to.
