Location
The scenic town of Zug lies in a German speaking area of central Switzerland, between the Alps and Lake Zugersee, providing a stunning backdrop for this German course for Young Students. Our school campus in Zug is just outside the town centre, and only a 10 minute walk from the blue waters of the lake. The two-hectare school site boasts exceptional facilities including a theatre, a games room, football pitches and a computer room, which has free Internet access.
CourseOur Standard Course consists of 20 German lessons each week, whereas our Intensive Course gives students an extra lesson each day, bringing the total to 25 lessons every week. The extra lessons concentrate on oral and written German and comprehension. All classes are taught by young, energetic German speaking Swiss teachers, giving students the best tuition possible!
Accommodation
Students at our school in Zug live on campus, sharing a room with one, two or three other students, who will be the same gender and around the same age. The teenagers can practice their German language skills with their fellow students, allowing them to make friends at the same time.
Level of supervisionHow old a student is will determine the amount of supervision that they receive. Students who are approaching the age of 17 will obviously have a greater degree of freedom, but both teachers and school staff live on-site, so there will always be somebody around to help students.
