I would like to learn French or Spanish this autumn. Where can I find out about good courses in situ? M Tait, Windsor
There are a large number of schools in both countries, and you could also learn Spanish in Latin America. The styles of instruction vary from intensive one-to-ones to those that offer a more relaxed pace and place as much emphasis on the culture as the language.
Your best starting point is the Association of Language Travel Organisations (00 45 33 17 00 62, www.altonet.org), which lists agents and schools worldwide.
