Schools may contact us regarding site inclusion. Each day students use our website to review information on language schools worldwide. Some of you are searching for schools of varying degrees of intensity. The immersion schools in our list includes those with complete or total intensive language immersion programs including classes, cultural programs, excursions, travel study, and family homestays. Other schools offer a variety of less intensive options. Schools may include general travel and conversational use classes and courses. Others offer specialized travel study options with a specific number of hours of instruction in the context of travels and conversational use with their teachers as the travel within a specific country. Many schools understand the increased demands for linguistically competent and culturally competent workers. As such, they offer specialized and individualized courses of instructions in a variety of professional applications. Our search options allow you to quickly locate language schools offering dozens of specialized  language programs including: medical, international business, social work, real estate, legal, technical, and other areas of interest. You may also search language schools by the activities available, such as dancing, cooking, horseback riding, hiking, surfing, mountain biking, wine tasting, and many more. Combing the internet for information on language immersion schools has become difficult due to the proliferation of websites and multiple agencies representing each school. In our directory you can are able to review information on a variety of immersion schools, institutes and programs with out having to search each school individually. We cooperate with individual schools in providing this information to you. Our costs are paid for by a small number of participating language immersion agencies.

We list schools, courses, classes, institutes in various international locations as well as a developing list of other language links and links to language study resources. We have an online store for language software, fiction and non-fiction language study needs, including lists of books, music and videos  (CDs, and DVDs). THE PROCESS OF LANGUAGE ACQUISITION VIA IN-COUNTRY LANGUAGE IMMERSION STUDIES THE ACQUISITION of a second language requires an understanding of the context of the language in order to bring it to life. It also requires an intensive integration of producing spontaneous speech. We receive many inquiries from students who have studied Spanish in high school, universities, and colleges that start with the familiar refrain: "I know a lot about Spanish, but I can't speak much. Even though many colleges and universities place more emphasis on "natural learning", "the natural approach", "the communicative method" and other  similar methods, these do not compare to the immediacy of in-country language immersion and very small class sizes of 3-6 students. Language immersion study provides a living, breathing laboratory for the student to experience "en vivo" learning for language integration. It also brings an immediacy to using the language. It is not a "sink or swim" approach, but a learn to swim approach with strong supports in place in the water with you! A vital part of an in-country immersion experience is living with a homestay family. This helps the student produce continuous spontaneous speech in real time conversations which better integrates small group or private class on-campus learning. This helps the student integrate the language in a more natural and useful way. MOST LANGUAGE IMMERSION programs integrate small classes or individual, one-to-one classes with homestay family experiences, excursions and other learning integration activities. These programs provide combined didactic structured learning combined with the opportunity to live in the culture and begin using the language in a more spontaneous manner. MOST INTENSIVE IMMERSION LANGUAGE SCHOOLS begin new classes at all levels every Monday throughout the year. They are able to do this because the small group class course materials are formatted into one week modules. Private classes are individually negotiated between the instructor and the student to individualize the learning plan. Many schools accommodate flexible start dates for private classes. Most schools offer family homestays, school arranged apartments or housing or outside hotel or apartments/houses. Most serious students choose the family homestays because of the extra time practicing and integrating their learning. Although many students go to study for one week, serious periods of studies begin at two and three weeks and beyond. IMMERSION LANGUAGE VACATIONS AND HOLIDAYS  are the way many students are thinking today, including many families who value their children learning another language early on and gaining a more global perspective. Many also are professionals in healthcare, education, business and other fields where skills in Spanish or another language are invaluable to them professionally. Those needing the language for professional use often take time each summer or holiday season working visiting a favorite immersion school or continuing their learning as they visit, study and vacation their ways through Latin America, the Caribbean and Spain.  WHEN YOU BEGIN DREAMING IN ANOTHER LANGUAGE or forgetting how to say something in your native language, you know you are getting immersed! This level of integration may take a few weeks, although if you have considerable background in the language before studying "in-country" this may begin to happen even somewhere in the second or third week of your studies.

WHAT IS YOUR CURRENT LEVEL OF YOUR INTENDED LANGUAGE OF STUDY? Here is how many intensive immersion language schools ask students to code their level of Spanish prior to arrival. Most have many more levels to offer you than these six noted below and will evaluate you more exactly for placement prior to start of your language studies. 1) Complete beginner 2) Knowledge of some words or phrases 3) Can hold simple conversation 4) Beyond basic survival speaking ability 5) Able to deal with most any topic 6) Near native level of competence Our focus is on helping students develop their understanding of the ir intended language language of study in the context of a specific culture.
