Your stay abroad will offer you the opportunity to increase and perfect your English skills in reading and writing as well as improve your ability to express yourself – something we find extremely important.
During the preparation phase we examine your current level of ability and offer support to fill in any missing gaps.

 

Independent learning is based on the fact that you understand your own process of learning.
Answers to questions such as, “How does my brain learn? Which does it remember? How does it reproduce, organize and structure information?” In this way, an efficient, effective and economic way of learning is achieved.

 

During the intensive learning processes you go through at boarding school, commitment is both encouraged and expected, leading to further development of :
- self-confidence
- self-control
- social competence
Shaping character can only be taught to a certain extent, however in the right environment it can certainly be encouraged.

 

Those who learn a foreign language should be aware that literal translations and patterns of communication common in the native tongue are not necessarily transferrable and can lead to misunderstandings and conflicts. Keeping cultural patterns of behavior and values in mind can help to see the new country with other eyes and learn to feel at home in various situations and societies.
Intercultural behavior is a key qualification and one of the most important aspects of preparing for your stay abroad.
