If you're learning to swim, you need to get in the water and Languages follow the same principle. You can propel your students' learning to the next level with a visit to the home country of their chosen language. Task them with ordering tapas on the Costa Brava, enquiring about ticket prices at the Eiffel Tower or asking for directions in Berlin. Dialogue with native speakers is invaluable in perfecting speaking and comprehension skills.
Spanish is often the first modern language taught in schools in the UK and a school language trip to Spain offers a wealth of options. The Costa Brava coast and Barcelona? The mountains of the Pyrenees? Or maybe the capital city of Madrid. Plenty of choice and Spain is a country that simply oozes culture.
French has long been taught in the UK and being on the doorstep, a school language trip to France is cost-effective and easy. France offers so many destinations, both near and far, all of which offer opportunities to really show off those speaking skills. Paris is the obvious choice, but France is a vast country with so much to see and experience.
Germany is known as the business centre of Europe, making German a very valuable language to master. A school language trip to Germany can be organised to any one of the major cities, immersing students fully in the culture and rounding their understanding of how this incredible country operates.
Wherever you'd like to visit we can build the perfect tour. Visiting attractions is part of the excitement and creates more opportunities for creating scenarios and situations where discussion and dialogue is essential. We can even arrange for local language lessons and/or visits to a local school to meet similarly aged children!
