Language Courses for Seniors (50 years plus)

Are you around 50 years old and interested in improving your existing foreign language skills or even in learning a new language altogether? A language holiday may be just the thing for you! Our “50 plus” senior language holidays are a great match for those who prefer to be amongst peers around their own age. The language courses themselves are mixed but the recreational programme is tailored to fit the interests of older participants, placing more emphasis on calmer activities like museum visits and city tours than the typical adult programme. This will allow you to enjoy local excursions in the company of people around your own age while having the opportunity to learn more about your host country, its culture and the way of life of its inhabitants. The advantage of the mixed classes is that young and old are able to interact, exchange and share freely with one another, The learning pace is adjusted according to the group’s needs and as a result, you will have the chance to learn within a comfortable and relaxed environment. Those who are more outgoing and like a bit more excitement in their free time are naturally welcome to attend one of the regular language courses which offer activities ranging from game nights to pub crawls to sporting events. During the course of your language holiday you will not only meet locals but you will also have the opportunity to get to know people from all around the world. A concerted effort is made to diversify the student body so that the temptation to speak in your native language is minimized as much as possible. Language students often spend their free time together as well so this will also give you the chance to learn a great deal about other countries and their cultures. It goes without saying that embarking on a language holiday involves so much more than simply learning another language! Language holidays for seniors are offered in a number of languages in a diverse range of countries, giving you the option to learn English not only in England but also in Australia, New Zealand and the USA. If you are interested in learning Spanish or Italian, you can study in the Andalusian city of Seville, sunny Cádiz, historical Rome or even in the capital of Tuscany, Florence. The choice is up to you! If you are not sure where you would like to go or if you have any questions, simply call us at +49 234 687098-0 or send us an Email. We would be happy to advise you!
