ESL – Ecole Suisse de Langues

Our partner school is located in the prestigious “St. Michel” college, just near the town centre and less than 10 minutes on foot from the lake side. The school’s buildings and facilities extend over nearly two hectares and offer an excellent infrastructure: 8 bright classrooms, a large study room, a theatre, a games room (pinball machines, table hockey, billiards, table football, video games) and several student common rooms with TV and DVD player. Sporting equipment is also available, including a gymnasium, football field, several basketball, handball and volleyball courts, as well as ping-pong tables. A computer area is also available so that you can access the Internet free of charge.

Kurserna

German lessons take place from Monday to Friday, from 8:30 am to 11:45 am or 8:30 am to 12:30 pm (intensive course). The lessons last 45 minutes each and are given by experienced, competent and enthusiastic teachers, who are all native German speakers. The classes are composed of a maximum of 14 students of different nationalities and are organised by level: beginner, elementary, intermediate and advanced. The day you arrive, you will sit an evaluation test to determine your level. A test each Friday and a mini-test each Wednesday will allow you to precisely evaluate the progress you have made each week. At the end of your stay, you will receive an ESL certificate attesting to your linguistic level in German.

Start dates 2008: Every Sunday during July. 2, 3 or 4 weeks.

Boende

Residence
Students stay in comfortable and well-equipped rooms for 3 or 4 people. The rooms are equipped with washbasins and the showers and toilets are located in the hall. Full board is included in the accommodation, and all meals are served in the school’s large dining room. For the safety and well being of the students, the school’s monitors live on the campus and are available 24 hours a day.

Fritidsaktiviteter

The junior camp in Zug is ideal for letting off steam and having fun after classes: the afternoon program alternates numerous sporting activities on the campus (football, volleyball, basketball, uni-hockey…) with cultural outings, shopping and excursions. Trips to the Rhine Falls, to the Zurich zoo or the Swiss transport museum in Lucerne, each of these outings is a good opportunity to practise German outside of the classroom with students of different nationalities. After dinner, the school monitors organise themed evenings. In the residence or by the lake… it’s time to party!
