Learn a language abroad

When studying abroad with Berlitz, progress depends on the intensity of your program. You can choose half-day courses (around 4 lessons per day) or full-day courses (up to 8 lessons per day). Many learners complete a Berlitz level in just a few weeks, while longer stays of several months allow you to advance across multiple levels. Because you are immersed in the language and culture all day, progress is faster than in traditional courses.
