Host family for total immersion or language camp to learn in a group? Discover the advantages and limitations of each option, and how friLingue's hybrid solution combines the best of both worlds for effective and fulfilling language learning.
A week in Braunwald means 15 hours of skiing on sunny slopes combined with 12 hours of language lessons in small groups of 6 maximum. The secret? Our instructors teach both skiing AND languages. Perched above the sea of fog, in a car-free village accessible only by funicular, your children experience complete immersion where learning goes hand in hand with fun. Skiing in the morning, languages in the afternoon, excursions and lively evenings: a formula that has worked for years and that transforms the way children learn.
"My child is shy, is it really a good idea to send them to a language camp?" This is a question we hear regularly at friLingue. The answer might surprise you: yes, it's often even an excellent idea! Shyness isn't a dead end, and the greatest transformations we observe actually involve introverted children. In our small groups of 3 to 6 students, shy children are no longer afraid of being judged and finally dare to express themselves. Discover why a well-chosen language camp can be the ideal playground for your child to gain confidence and make friends.
