While abroad

This is your chance to experience something new and exciting. A year as an exchange student will give you knowledge, impressions, inspiration and memories. It will simply be the best year of your life!

Suddenly you speak the language fluently

The big advantage of learning a language in a country where it’s spoken is that you hear it everywhere. You get exposed to it around the dinner table with your host family, at the gym, in a café or at the shopping mall. Your pronunciation improves radically. New words and expressions are suddenly yours. It is an almost automatic process. And it is so much fun!
