Our philosophy

Language is experienced, not crammed

In groups of six on average, our teachers respond directly to each child's strengths and weaknesses. That builds progress and confidence. Young, creative teachers and an international atmosphere make learning an experience.

About six per group

Plenty of speaking time, individual support and a placement test on arrival day, so every child ends up in the right group.

Young, creative teachers

Our teachers bring their enthusiasm to lessons and to the afternoon programme. They live at the camp and are there around the clock.

International atmosphere

Teens from Switzerland and all over the world, volunteers from many countries: languages are lived naturally.

“It matters to us that every child feels seen. That’s why we work in small groups and guide with clear values, so your child doesn’t just learn a language, but grows as a person.”
