The programme

What can you expect from this programme?

Real immersion in English

Your teacher accompanies you throughout the day and you use English continuously.

You don’t spend the day in a classroom: you learn through conversations, meals, walks, visits and journeys in which you need to listen, react and express yourself spontaneously.

100% speaking-based methodology

Continuous exposure to the language lets you work intensively on fluency, listening, pronunciation, vocabulary and structures.

General English and Business English

Depending on your needs: everyday conversations and situations or professional contexts such as meetings, presentations, business lunches, travel, international clients or networking.

Continuous correction and feedback

The teacher doesn’t just chat: they correct, spot recurring mistakes and introduce new expressions, vocabulary and structures so you know what to say, how to say it and how to react.

Fluency, confidence and ease

Immersion helps you step out of your comfort zone, rely less on translation and gain agility, fluency and confidence, at work and in everyday life.

The course

How is the course structured?

An immersion day designed entirely around the student.

Before starting we analyse your level, goals and needs to design a fully personalised experience. The day’s activities and situations are chosen according to what you need to improve.

During the programme you are accompanied by your teacher and use English the whole time. There’s no traditional class structure: conversations, meals, journeys, visits and activities become real learning situations.

The teacher introduces vocabulary, expressions, structures and resources as they come up and gives you continuous correction and feedback, so you react more spontaneously and make your English sound natural.
