Top 8 courses of English language in Belgium. List of schools for teenagers, children, students. Cost of studying

The most popular English courses in Belgium among foreign students are vacation courses. There is no need to break away from a comprehensive school, to miss classes in other subjects. And in the summer or New Year holidays, you can very successfully combine interesting English courses with exciting travel and sightseeing tours, play sports games or join in new sports.

All language schools in Belgium offer summer or winter courses - in particular they are popular:

• In full-board guest houses. Here, students and teenagers can live without mentors. Such language schools in Belgium offer several curriculum options: intensive, long - up to 1 year - and express-intensive - from 1 week.
• In language schools offering private lessons (“one-to-one”). The course can also be long and short, introductory. The amount of information received in individual lessons is greater than in group lessons, but less than the possibility of complete immersion in the language.

Children without decent language skills, who have moved from other countries to permanent residence, need a long study of the language. If in the first year in a comprehensive school there is an opportunity to study in separate groups divided by language, then in the second year, children are united to general groups. Command of English (as well as local - Dutch or French ) is necessary. 

Students, who have transferred from foreign universities, also must have sufficient English proficiency. In Belgium, it is possible to combine study or work with classes in language groups - linguistic schools and centers offer evening courses.

The most popular English courses in Belgium can be taken in several types of schools:

• Residential language schools
• Linguistic centers at universities
• International language schools
• English teacher's home (private lessons or mini-group classes).

The table shows the main parameters of English courses in Belgium that language schools offer. 

The most prestigious language courses in Belgium are accredited by the British Consulate, official branches of TOEFL linguistic international centers, and University of Oxford. Due to high-quality education graduates of language courses easily adapt among their peers, get rid of language barriers, become more intelligent - the courses pay much attention to the cultural and historical side of Belgium. Foreign students successfully enter English-speaking universities in Europe and the world: during their main studies, many continue to attend English courses, raising the educational "standard".

The methodology of teaching English for children and adolescents necessarily involves combination of study and outdoor activities. Exercising activates the brain, and changing the classroom for a walk in the mountains or a joint trip to the entertainment center is a practice of situational English. Some language schools in Belgium offer sightseeing tours to neighboring cities, with visits to children's museums, castles and so on.
