Course description
This course focuses on specific areas of language learning: grammar and language work, reading and listening, or communicative activities and speaking practice. Our aim is to provide you with the vocabulary and grammar required for effective communication with particular attention being paid to improving speaking and listening skills. The goal of the course is to strengthen your communication skills and help you overcome your own speaking inhibitions.
Academic objectives We are very happy to welcome you to your International Projects language experience designed especially for you by our own IP schools; Europa School of English, a British Council accredited school and CELF, our French language school. Our academic aim is to help you to improve and to become confident in your all-round language ability so you can achieve your individual goals, such as experiencing travelling abroad (maybe for the first time), your career development and personal growth. In class your teacher will help you to improve in both receptive and productive skills, to develop intercultural competence and to enable you to become a more autonomous learner, so that your learning can continue after you leave us.

The course consists of the General Course plus an additional lesson per day which focuses on a fourth area of language learning: Project-based lesson which emphasis on writing skills.
Trinity Graded Examinations in Spoken English for speakers of other languages provide an internationally recognised scheme of assessment through which you can measure your language development for educational or vocational purposes. The awarded grades range from 1 (absolute beginner) to 12 (very advanced). The Trinity Oral Examination can be prepared and taken during most of our Junior Summer courses.
This course consists of the Intensive Course plus afternoon lessons. Students work with culture-based materials towards a final presentation. You will be exposed to cultural input and improve your presentation skills.
The lessons are based on the same concept as the Intensive Course. Working in very small groups allows you to focus on your own language needs and areas to strengthen. Together with the teacher, you can decide what you want to work on and which aspects of language you want to improve.
This Course consists of two parts. In the morning you take part in the Intensive English Course. For the afternoon session, you will have a cultural lesson preparing you for an excursion. After the excursion there will be a tutorial. You will work on a small presentation relating to the cultural activities. Additionally, you will have the possibility to assess your own capabilities and receive individual tutoring.

Secure supervision
We take care of the parents
We guarantee well-trained and secure supervision: International teams who are carefully selected and have excellent training supervise our junior students during the entire stay. Our staff members have been chosen in accordance with strict legal guidelines and have undergone 4 – 10 days of intense training in preparation for their job at our Junior Language Schools. Many of them have worked with us for several seasons. Supervision is provided on a 1:15 ratio for students over 13 years of age and 1:10 for those aged 12 and younger.
It is a huge step for parents to let their child travel abroad (probably for the first time). We are aware of that, which is why we are available 24/7! Besides our office hours, we provide an emergency number during the season. Our staff are always in contact with the teams in the IP language schools and resolve all issues as soon as possible.

Learn more than a language Schools with personality The learning environment in our language schools is very important to us. We have choosen our destinations carefully and always seek to create pleasant surroundings for our students. Our schools are located on traditional English university campuses, in an English boarding school, a stunning castle beside the Rhine River or for example in a former church, which has been completely renovated. The city centres and hot spots of your destination are always nearby!
Typical day at IP
Young people from all over the world meet in our schools to spend their holidays learning a foreign language together. The lessons reflect local life and tie in intercultural experiences such as understanding life in other cultures and countries. In the afternoons and evenings there is an extensive activity programme organised by our International Team. You will try new things and find out what is important to you. It’s fun and lets your personality shine through. You will get to know your own talents and interests better than you thought and at the same time you’ll develop your social and team-working skills by doing activities with your friends. As everything is done in the foreign language, you’ll be able to put your language skills into practice. Within no time, you’ll begin to notice how much easier the language is when used on a regular basis.

On your first day of school you will take a placement test. Afterwards you’ll be placed in the appropriate study group so that you and your peers can learn more effectively. Most language classes take place in the morning so that in the afternoon our students can participate in the activity programme. Depending on how intense your progress on language ability is, you can choose to have lessons in the afternoon as well. During our daily assembly we’ll give you all the information you need and the evening TTT (time to talk) is to clarify your questions and concerns. After lunch it’s time for action. Take part in our afternoon and evening activities 7 days a week or just socialize with your new friends.

Our staff members come from diverse backgrounds, allowing them to bring a wide diversity of skills that will enrich your stay.

In the afternoons you have the choice of various activities on offer and in the evenings there is always at least one planned activity for you to participate in. For our youngest students (10-15 yrs) we offer our programme as a compulsory age-appropriate full programme throughout the week. All students aged 16 & 17 years have the freedom to choose activities from our programme or ask for permission to spend time on their own in case we can ensure their safety.

Young adult programme
Our language programme for young adults (16-20 years) is suitable for independent, mature-minded students. In Bournemouth and Biarritz, our staff members do not supervise you but instead provide guidance on how to enjoy your holiday (safely). After lessons you enjoy the freedom as well as the rights and duties of an adult. If necessary, there is assistance provided by our IP Welfare Coordinator whom you will meet during the welcome meeting upon arrival. The coordinator shows you around your course town, introduces you to local hot spots and possible dangers. The coordinator also provides all the information you might need in order to plan your holidays and will have dinner (Bournemouth only) with you every day. You will be able to contact your coordinator at any time if you need help or assistance.
