1. Watersports & German in Berlin

As one of Europe’s main languages, German is often seen as a gateway to a world-class higher education and can open many doors for young students. Be it engineering, trade, literature or philosophy, German is a language that dominates a number of fields worldwide.

Our Berlin summer camp combines learning German with fun watersports and outdoor activities in a classic summer camp in Germany’s metropolitan capital. Children & teens can choose from canoeing, sailing and surfing – all from the school’s private beach and harbour in a beautiful lake outside of Berlin. Our schools in Germany provide language tuition with native speaking teachers in the mornings, engaging activities and informative excursions across the region in the afternoon, and at weekends. The accommodation is full-board, residential and on-site with full safeguarding processes and procedures in place.

With its rich history and its close ties to Latin, Italian can be seen as one of the most original and surely one of the most romantic romance languages. Studying Italian in Italy, the cradle of western civilisation, will prove an incredible experience whilst at the same time bringing students closer to the roots of Italian culture.

Enjoy the experience of living on the stunning Friulian Coast. Students will live and study in beautiful Lignano and enjoy a full-cultural experience exploring the coastline and surrounding area.
