Accommodation We do our best to ensure you feel truly at home in your host country. Whether you choose to stay in a homestay, a student residence, a hotel or guesthouse, you can be sure that all accommodation options have been carefully selected by Eurocentres. You will be spoilt for choice: select the type of accommodation that suits your needs.
Homestay Most Eurocentres students choose our homestay programme. It is one of the best ways to get to know your host country’s customs and culture, and the ideal opportunity to use your newly acquired language skills. You will have your own room, furnished to a good local standard. If you have any special requirements, such as a vegetarian diet, please let us know on the enrolment form. We will make every effort to comply with your wishes when arranging your accommodation. Our hosts, families with and without children, older couples and single people – are carefully selected and regularly inspected by our local staff, following clearly defined quality standards. We have been working with most of our hosts for many years now and all are experienced in looking after guests in their homes.

In a student residence, contact with students from all over the world will give you the chance to form and deepen friendships. You will have your own room and be responsible for your own meals. Some residences have university restaurant facilities nearby where you can eat at a reasonable price. Others have communal kitchens where you can prepare your own meals, although not all are equipped with crockery, pots and pans.
Hotel or apartment Most of the apartments we offer are basic, inexpensive studios with a bedroom/living room and a kitchenette. The range of apartments varies from location to location. We are also happy to arrange or recommend accommodation for you in a two, three and four-star hotel or guesthouse.

One of the largest and most cosmopolitan cities in the world, London sets trends in fashion, music, design and film. Our school is based in Victoria with access to a private garden. A huge variety of bars, restaurants, theatres and concerts means you will always have plenty of things to do.
The school is located in the grounds of a royal palace in a leafy suburb called Eltham, close to Greenwich, where the world’s time is set. Enjoy the advantages of a quieter suburban location with access to city life only a 25 minute train ride from central London.
As one of the most historic and popular student cities in Europe, Cambridge is a convenient size for getting around either on foot or by bike. Young people from all over the world enjoy student life and the numerous opportunities to play sport, go to the theatre, cinema, pubs and go shopping.
Lidia Zhou, Italy The teachers are extraordinary, because they teach with passion, so I was more motivated to learn and improve my English. It’s the best school for me to learn English because of its personalised education.
Yuki Nakamoto, Japan The main reason why I chose Eurocentres London Eltham is that the location of school is suitable for study, calm and still close to the centre of London. I like the interactive teaching style of Eurocentres. I had lots of opportunities to speak English in class.
Fan Vu, Ukraine The teachers are very kind and have good knowledge to teach and the area is lovely with lots of facilities for students. I really suggest this school to everyone who prepares for exams or wants to improve general English.

East Lansing
“America’s finest city” is quickly becoming the primary destination for travellers. With its year-round near-perfect climate, picturesque beaches, stunning landscape and cultural venues, San Diego is the ideal location for international students wanting to experience American culture in a safe, friendly city.
There’s nothing bite-sized about the Big Apple, the city of superlatives. No other city on earth brings together so many races, cultures, religions, and nations. New trends are born here all the time, between the skyscrapers of Manhattan, along Broadway, Wall Street and Central Park.
A typical university town, but with all the amenities one would expect from a big city: restaurants, coffee shops, entertainment centres, malls, all within walking distance of the campus and the student residences. A wonderful, true university experience.
Rudimar Baesso Althoef, Brazil Columbia has exposed me to an incredible world of opportunities that surpassed my expectations.

Cairns is a diver’s paradise for both beginners and advanced practitioners, and a perfect place for sun seekers.
Melbourne is Australia’s cultural, sports, fashion and foodie hub. Whether it’s the many exciting laneways of the city, the vibrant seaside charm of St Kilda or exploring the different cultural precincts, there’s always something happening here. Melbourne is arguably Australia’s most multicultural city, a melting pot of culture and experiences.
Australia’s largest city with a magnificent harbour and home to the famous Opera House and Harbour Bridge. Sydney has a mild climate and offers spectacular surfing beaches including Bondi, Coogee and Manly. This lively multicultural city offers exciting nightlife, restaurants, cafés and shopping, and the superb transport system.
Edouard Lambert, France I have enjoyed the teachers und the students from all over the world. I would recommend the school to all my friends because it is the best way to improve your English skills.
Santiago Bernal Giraldo, Colombia Learning English is increasingly necessary to interact with the globalized world that we are creating. The small classes, new spaces and friendly staff permit and encourage you to learn the language in the best way.
Marine Queru, France Eurocentres Cairns knew how to respond to my expectations. In 3 months, I progressed in English and now I know exactly how to continue my efforts with the tools and courses they gave me.

Cape Town
Malta
The oldest city in South Africa and known as the “Mother City”. With Table Mountain at its heart, Cape Town straddles both the Atlantic and Indian Oceans. An ideal base for exploring the mountains, beaches, historic vineyards and farms for which the area is famed. Cape Town is a cosmopolitan city with fantastic cultural opportunities and a yearround pleasant climate.
Malta offers so much to enjoy that it is essential to make the most of the time available. Its history is vast and unique with the earliest known free standing temples in existence. The island, just off the coast of Italy provides a perfect blend of European baroque culture with a refined English influence, the legacy of the last five hundred years of rule by the Knights of Malta and the British.
Nurullah Diker, Turkey I feel exceptionally good because of the education, social programme and friendly teachers at the school. The city is so beautiful, the people are friendly and they have a different accent and a natural environment. I think I’m addicted to Cape Town.
Valeria Valla, Italy Eurocentres Malta is well organized, the staff and the teachers are competent, kind and very helpful. My host family made me feel at home. Here I could immerse myself in a very interesting atmosphere, full of cultures and traditions.

Amboise
La Rochelle
Notre-Dame, Sacré-Cœur, the Arc de Triomphe, the Eiffel Tower and other historic buildings and monuments dominate the skyline. A city full of spirit, famous for its arts and “joie de vivre”, its wide boulevards and winding streets. Varied nightlife: trendy bars and clubs, traditional brasseries. Euro Disney is close to the city.
Wonderful little town in the “Garden of France”. Ideal base for excursions to the world-famous Loire castles and vineyards. Amboise is situated in Touraine, a region well known for its pure French and classed in 2000 as a UNESCO world heritage site. It’s no coincidence that Mick Jagger has chosen to make Amboise his second home!
Coastal location with islands, sandy beaches and sleepy fishing villages. The rich history of this harbour town has always been inseparable from the Atlantic. From the old port, the first French colonialists left for Canada in the 15th century. Fantastic watersports facilities (sailing, surfing) along the Atlantic coast. A friendly student town.
Kazuki Seki, Japan Eurocentres Amboise is the best place to learn French. The level of the classes matches each student and the teachers are very kind to help with questions and problems during my stay in France even if it is out of class.
Jean Cudemos, USA I arrived a couple of months ago and didn’t speak French. I now find myself having conversations with friends and my host family. Eurocentres is a great school where I’ve met friends from all over the world.

Very close by is the famous wine-growing district of Lavaux. Melissa, Costa Rica I learned a lot and made a lot of progress during my stay in Lausanne thanks to the professors and the diversity of the activities.

Spain, Peru and Mexico Barcelona
Valencia
Cuzco
Situated between mountains and the Mediterranean sea, Barcelona is a cosmopolitan and dynamic city, full of life and varied culture. The city’s unique personality is reflected in its art and architecture, where ancient and modern styles coexist in a fascinating mixture.
More than 2000 years of history is reflected in the numerous monuments and museums of Spain’s third largest city. Valencia has a warm year-round climate and the countless gardens and beaches create a peaceful and relaxed atmosphere. A multicultural city with many festivals. Valencia is less than 4 hours from Barcelona and Madrid by train.
Cuzco, a charming city high in the Andes, is captivating to all who tread its steep, cobbled streets built by the ancient Incas. This welcoming place, surrounded by mountains and impressive ruins, is a place where you can feel at home immediately.
Fons Cras, Netherlands In the last 7 weeks that I studied at Eurocentres my Spanish improved a lot as well as my knowledge of Spanish culture. The facilities are good, including a learning centre with many self-study resources.
Marcus Gnoth, Germany The lessons are really interesting and fun and the teachers always create a familiar atmosphere in which every student is involved. They always go into student’s wishes and proposals immediately. Thanks for a great time.
Sarah Warry, Great Britain Amigos School is a great place to study if you are looking for both quality teaching and a fun environment. They have great teachers and organise a lot of activities outside of classes. The Spanish you learn will stay with you!

Moscow is the New York of Russia, the city that never sleeps, but where old Russia is still evident. The many churches with their onion shaped towers, old buildings and palaces and, of course, Red Square and the Kremlin, give the city centre a unique character. Moscow is both familiar and exotic – fascinating every visitor with its charm.
The beauty of St. Petersburg lies in the unique harmony of its architecture – baroque, classical and art nouveau, all enhanced magnificently by the everpresent water. Explore this world cul tural heritage city that seems to consist entirely of palaces, churches and romantic canals.
Martin Vocks, Germany Classes were very interesting and at a good level for me as a beginner. People around the school were always friendly, attentive and helpful. I also particularly liked how my teacher incorporated short anecdotes about Russian culture into the lessons.

General Terms & Conditions of Business 2017 Dear customer, The following General Terms and Conditions (“GTC”) apply to all legal transactions between Stiftung für Sprach- und Bildungszentren / Foundation for Language and Educational Centres, Seestrasse 247, CH 8038 Zurich, Switzerland (hereinafter referred to as Eurocentres”) and you as its customer (hereinafter referred to as “customer”) concerning language courses and services organised by Eurocentres. Clause 1 Offered services, registration, age restrictions 1.1. The services offered by Eurocentres are based on tour and service descriptions as well as supplementary information about the course location. Unless expressly agreed otherwise, brochures by thirdparty service providers and in particular, local partner organisations, language schools as well as destination and accommodation brochures that have not been issued by Eurocentres, are not binding with regard to the performance of services by Eurocentres. 1.2. Travel intermediaries (e.g. travel agencies) and service providers such as local partner organisations, language schools, hotels and other accommodation providers as well as transport companies are not entitled to conclude agreements with customers, to provide binding information or make representations, which change the content of the contract. 1.3. To make a booking, customers can use the Eurocentres booking form found in its brochures or available online at www.eurocentres.com. The first name and surname as well as any other information provided on the registration form must be true and accurate. Eurocentres reserves the right to expel customers or course participants if they provide false information. In such cases, customers will not be entitled to receive a refund. Vouchers and other promotions must be presented at the time of the registration. They cannot be taken into consideration once the booking confirmation has been issued. 1.4. By submitting a written booking request (by email or fax) or an online booking form (by clicking the button “Place a binding order”), the customer makes a binding offer to enter into a contract. The contract comes into effect upon receipt of the booking confirmation from Eurocentres by the customer. 1.5. In the case of course participants who are considered to be minors or otherwise incapable of entering into contracts under Swiss law (i.e. individuals under the age of 18) or under the laws of their respective countries of residence, the booking form must be signed by their legal guardians stating their full address. This means, that in this case, the legal guardian will be deemed to be the customer for the purposes of these General Terms and Conditions. You will receive more detailed country-specific information about age restrictions and consent requirements from your course consultant prior to entering into a contract. The information is also available at www.eurocentres.com. 1.6. In any case, course participants are required to be at least over the age of 16 at the start of the course. Regarding bookings for Sydney and Melbourne, the course participants must be over the age 18.
Clause 2 Terms and conditions of payment A down payment of USD 475 / CHF 500 / EUR 330 / GBP 285 / JPY 50,000 / AUD 555 / CAD 500 per participant plus any insurance premiums is payable upon receipt of the booking confirmation. The balance of the price is payable six weeks before the start of the course. Bookings less than six weeks in advance must be paid for in full at the time of booking. The booking price is only deemed to have been paid in accordance with the terms of the contract when it has been credited to the account specified by Eurocentres in the booking confirmation. When you book your course by telephone, fax or post and you pay by credit card, please note that the deposit will be charged ten days after sending the booking confirmation, and the balance amount will be charged six weeks before the start of the course. Clause 3 Delayed payment, rejection or reversal of credit card payments Unless the customer has paid the price for the booking in full, he/she will not be entitled to use the contractual services. If the customer fails to make the down payment and/or balance payment within the specified time limit, Eurocentres will be entitled to rescind the contract after reminding the customer and giving him/her a grace period to no effect and to demand compensation in accordance with Article 9. Clause 4 Proof of payment at the start of the course At the start of the course, the course participant shall provide proof of payment of the course fees and, where applicable, of the accommodation and other fees. Should the course participant be unable to present such proof, he/she shall not be admitted to classes or accommodation. This is without prejudice to Eurocentres’ entitlement to payment of the price of the booking. Clause 5 Enrolment fee The enrolment fee is charged on all reservations and will not be refunded under any circumstances. Information about the amount of enrolment fees is available on the relevant school page of the brochure on the company’s website at www.eurocentres.com. Clause 6 Change fee Once the contract is concluded, the customer may only change school, course type, accommodation, start date, etc. (change of booking) with the consent of Eurocentres. If Eurocentres agrees to change the contract, the customer will be charged a change fee as follows: –C ourses with a duration of up to 23 weeks: USD 80 / CHF 100 / EUR 75 / GBP 50 / JPY 9,000 / AUD 125 / CAD 110. –C ourses with a duration of 24 weeks and longer (language semester/ year): USD 230 / CHF 300 / EUR 200 / GBP 145 / JPY 27,000 / AUD 370 / CAD 330. The change fee will be waived if the customer wants to change his/ her booking to enrol on a longer course. Eurocentres reserves in any case the right to pass on any additional costs incurred as a result of the change of booking to the customer. Any extension of a course, once the course has begun, will be treated as a new booking. In the case of specialised courses with a duration of more than four weeks, the specialisation may be changed during the course with the consent of the school. However, only one change can be made every four weeks. The school must in any case agree to a change. For calculation of the time limits please refer to Article 9.

Clause 12 Complaints and liability Course participants shall communicate any complaints forthwith to the local school administration or Eurocentres in Zurich. If the course participant has made a complaint concerning a material defect in performance to be rendered by Eurocentres and the latter is unable to remedy the situation within a reasonable time limit, the course participant is entitled to take steps to remedy the defect within the scope of the booked services independently. Eurocentres will then reimburse the course participant upon presentation of receipts in accordance with its statutory and contractual liability. Any claims for a refund must be made by sending a registered letter to Eurocentres in Zurich within one month of the agreed end of the course. After the end of this period, all types of claims on whatever legal basis will be excluded. Eurocentres is liable for its own services as provided for by these General Terms and Conditions. However, liability for simple negligence is excluded and in the case of package deals, the liability is limited in case of claims other than personal injury claims to twice the tour price. To the extent permissible by law, liability in all cases is limited to direct damage. Eurocentres is not liable for any loss, destruction or misuse of valuables, cameras and video cameras, mobile telephones, credit cards, cash, etc. Furthermore, Eurocentres will not be held liable for lost holiday time, experienced frustration or the non-performance or unsatisfactory performance of arranged services. Statutory regulations apply to non-contractual liabilities, with any liability limitations and exclusions under these General Terms and Conditions taking precedence over statutory regulations. Tour guides, agencies and employees of service providers are not authorised to confirm defects or to acknowledge claims against Eurocentres. Clause 13 Insurance It is the responsibility of the customer to take out suitable travel insurance. As part of the booking, customers have the option to take out a combined ELVIA travel insurance (covering withdrawal and return travel costs) or ELVIA Security Package cover (baggage and medical insurance), which will be shown on the invoice separately. Insurance premiums are not refundable after the conclusion of the contract.
Clause 14 Minimum number of participants & public holidays Where the minimum number of 6 course participants (Cuzco 4) required for each language course has not been reached, Eurocentres shall inform the customer at least three weeks before the start of the course, whether the booking will be cancelled. If Eurocentres is unable to offer the customer an alternative offer, Eurocentres shall reimburse the customer for any fees already paid (including any insurance premiums). The customer is not entitled to make any claims for being inconvenienced or additional compensation. In exceptional cases, Eurocentres may run courses with less than six participants. No lessons will take place on official public holidays at the location of the school. No compensa- tion or refund will be provided for these lessons. Clause 15 Changes to prices, dates or programmes As long as no booking confirmation has been issued, Eurocentres is entitled to change the dates and prices published in brochures, on the internet or elsewhere at any time. Upon conclusion of the contract, Eurocentres may make changes to its services, provided such changes are unavoidable and insignificant and made in good faith and do not affect the overall content of the course. If material changes are made to key services, the customer is entitled to rescind the contract or to request to join a language course of equivalent value, where Eurocentres is in the position to offer such a course. Eurocentres shall notify the customer of any such change as soon as possible. The customer must assert his or her rights immediately upon receiving the notice from Eurocentres. Eurocentres is entitled to increase its prices after entering into an agreement up to three weeks before the start of the course for the following reasons: increases in transport costs, increases in charges for certain services, exchange rate fluctuations, official price increases, introduction or increase in public charges. In the case of such increases, the price can be adjusted and increased accordingly. If prices are raised by more than 10%, the contracting partner has the same rights as in the case of material changes to key services. Any changes to the programme or services during the language course due to unforeseeable or unpreventable circumstances are permissible, provided the overall content of the programme remains unchanged. Eurocentres reserves the right to assign or re-assign participants to classes in accordance with their language skills or to implement any other measures required to ensure smooth operation of the school.

Insurance Cancellation and return travel costs This combined policy covers withdrawal and return travel costs. Period of cover: minimum three months
Security Package Travel luggage, medical expenses, examination fees, transport accident insurance, travel hotline, credit card and store card cancellation service.
Withdrawal costs: If you have to cancel your planned stay at a language school at short notice on health grounds (a medical certificate is required), because of a death in the family or a problem with your transport, this insurance covers the cancellation costs in accordance with Eurocentres’ Standard Terms of Business.
The Security Package covers most of the risks that travelling and staying in another country involves, and provides personal assistance and support in any emergency. If you have an accident or become ill during your stay, the insurance will pay medical expenses, such as for drugs and medication, hospitalisation and a stay at a health resort, together with transport to the nearest convenient hospital, up to a maximum of CHF 100,000. For 365 days a year, 24 hours a day, the ELVIA Travel Hotline is there to help and support you in an emergency. It will arrange and assist you in finding the appropriate physicians, provide assistance with translation and interpreting services, stop your credit cards and if necessary inform your relatives and employer. With the travel luggage insurance, your luggage and valuables are insured against theft, robbery and damage up to CHF 2,000. In the event of you failing a language examination for which the Eurocentres course has prepared you, the insurance shall reimburse you with up to CHF 500 for examination fees. The examination must take place no later than six months after the end of the course and you must have attended at least 80% of the lessons.
Return travel costs: In the event of illness or accident, the costs of transport, either to the nearest local hospital or to a hospital where you live, are covered. If you have to terminate the course on compelling grounds and return home earlier (e.g. if a close relative dies, your property suffers serious damage as a result of burglary or natural disasters), the insurance will cover the additional return travel costs. In addition, ELVIA will refund the expenses for the unused part of the course pro-rata to the arrangement price. If the insured person goes missing, the insurance will cover the search and rescue costs.
