5. Why ESL ?
The ESL programmes
Attractive destinations!
We have carefully chosen the locations of our course centres whilst
considering the main criteria which contribute, as far as we are
concerned, to the success of a language study stay:
✓ The proximity of cultural and tourist attractions, for entertaining
activities and excursions.
✓ The ease of access by means of transport, particularly the proximity
of international airports and train stations.
✓ The diversity and quality of the facilities in the course venues and
in their surroundings, in order to offer our students a suitable
study environment, optimal accommodation and the possibility
to practise numerous sports.
The international renown of the chosen destinations.
Accommodation
A home away from home abroad!
It is certainly easier to communicate, to exchange and to discover
the culture around you when you feel at ease, “like at home”. In
this way, in a pleasant and convivial environment which meets your
expectations, you will be able to take full advantage of your language
study stay. ESL has therefore selected the accommodation options
which best suit the requirements of young students. According to
the region, our students can choose to stay in a residence or with
a host family. Whichever option you choose, you will be in an ideal
situation to practise the language you are studying every day.
The ESL residences
Living with young people of all nationalities, discovering various points
of view and making friends, residence accommodation allows you
to have a very enriching experience of community and international
life. According to the destination, the students are accommodated in
bedrooms with 1 to 4 beds with other ESL students. The language
classes, the majority of meals as well as some of the activities take
place within, or in the immediate surroundings of, the ESL campuses
(residence + course centre). On request and depending on availability,
our students may be accommodated with a friend.
The ESL host families
The conviviality of a family environment, a daily practice of the
language of the country and the discovery of a new culture are some
of the numerous advantages that accommodation with a host family
offers. You will stay in a double room and will share the common
rooms with the members of the family. You have breakfast and the
evening meal with the family and lunch in the cafeteria of the course
centre. On request and depending on availability, our students may
be accommodated with a friend.
www.esl-schools.org 5
6. General information
Pocket money service
Just like at the bank!
In the ESL residences, a pocket money service is proposed to the
students. Functioning like a bank, the pocket money service is open
every day, allowing for the deposit or withdrawal of money by
the students.
Internet telephone access
Stay connected!
In order that each student may keep in contact with his/her family,
there is nothing like Internet access. All of the ESL course centres
are equipped in order that the students may access their e-mails for
free. On the other hand, the course venues in the Alps are situated in
regions which benefit from good network coverage for mobile phones.
Insurance
Travel with full peace of mind!
By means of our enrolment form, we propose to you to take out
various options of insurance cover described below. These insurances
are valid in Switzerland, in France or in Germany.
Health/accident
During your enrolment for one of our programmes, you will need to
certify that you are in possession of compulsory health and accident
insurance cover, valid in the country that you will have chosen to visit.
Cancellation
In addition, we strongly recommend to you to take out a cancellation

to participate in the language study programme that you have booked.
ESL supervision
100% safety!
We look for the best environment possible in order that your
language study stay is a real success. The supervision of our students
is effective and discreet, adapted to the age-group and the type of
accommodation booked. In this way, each student can gain maximum
benefit from his/her stay in complete safety. From the first to the
last day, the members of the ESL team are present and available
to give the assistance requested by each student and to ensure
their necessary safety. In the ESL residences, a complete 24-hour
surveillance allows for optimal supervision. Students who choose ESL
host families benefit from more free time in accordance with their

accompanying adult takes care of the students from their departure

this way, you will travel in a relaxed manner, without worrying about
the train changes to be carried out.

8. The ESL language courses
Learning a language has never
been so fun!
The ESL course programmes have been especially designed for
young students and are adapted to the level of each participant.
Thanks to sound teaching experience, ESL proposes an effective
and enjoyable approach to language learning. The teachers attach
particular importance to communication. They propose interactive
and motivating classes which allow for the easy practice of newly
acquired language skills. Progress is made naturally in a pleasant
atmosphere.This is the dream opportunity to develop your language
skills and to have an unforgettable experience.
The ESL teachers
Our teaching team is made up of young and dynamic teachers who
teach in their native language. The ESL teachers are chosen for their
teaching talent, their enthusiasm and for the attention they know
to give to each student. They make every effort in order to create a
relaxed, fun and stimulating atmosphere. The topics of the lessons
are as close as can be to the interests of the students. Even during
the extracurricular activities, the teachers encourage the students to
use the language being studied. This fun and motivating teaching is
the key to effective learning.
Courses adapted to your level
Whatever their level of skills in the language they are
studying, our students take a course adapted to their level.
At the beginning of their stay, all of the ESL students sit
an evaluation test, thanks to which each student is placed
in a class corresponding best to his/her level. Each week, a small
evaluation allows the teacher to accurately follow up on the progress
being made by each of his/her students.
The ESL certificate
At the end of your stay, you receive an ESL certificate
which attests to your participation in classes, validates
the language level reached and specifies the results obtained.

The Pearl of the Swiss Riviera
“You wish to carry out a language study stay in an exceptional natural setting and learn French in one of the most beautiful regions of
Switzerland? Then Montreux is a must!
”Situated on the banks of Lake Geneva, in the French-speaking part of Switzerland, Montreux enjoys a mild and pleasant microclimate
which gives it a Mediterranean feel and has earned it the name “Pearl of the Swiss riviera”.
On following the quays lined with exotic trees, walkers are amazed each time by the breathtaking panorama they have before their
eyes. Between the lake and mountains, the region offers an exceptional choice of sports and cultural activities. Montreux welcomes
events on an international scale like the Montreux Jazz Festival or the Christmas Market, which have given this beautiful tourist region
its reputation for several years.

26. Paris-Igny
The capital of the French-speaking world
Imagine yourself at the top of the Eiffel Tower, or discovering the city from the bridge of a river boat. Sit down for a 3D projection which
is even better than the real thing at the geode of the Museum of Science, pose beside the wax statue of Zinadine Zidane, stroll along the
lively small streets of the Quartier Latin, applaud the Beaubourg street artists or admire the splendours of the Palace of Versailles and
tell yourself you’re not dreaming. Our destination of Paris-Igny promises you all this and much more besides.
A charming small town to the south-west of the Parisian belt, nicknamed the garden town, Igny is an oasis of fresh air and greenery
barely 25 minutes from the heart of the capital by RER (train).
This favourable location allows us to offer as extraordinary a destination as Paris in full security and to combine language classes, sports
and residence accommodation in a magnificent environment with the discovery of all the marvels of the city of lights.
