Language study trip to London / England
completed

Why did you decide to go on a language study trip?

As part of my studies at business school, I had to complete a four-week language course in England to prepare for a certificate. I was happy about this as I love traveling and languages. I have already completed a language course in French-speaking Switzerland.

In which country and in which city did your language study trip take place?

I was in England in the beautiful city of London.

When did you complete the language study trip? How long did it last?

I completed my stay from 09.07.2017 to 05.08.2017, so it lasted four weeks.

How satisfied were you with your language study trip? What did you particularly like?

I was very happy because I got a great school. I was able to meet lots of new people and make lots of new friends. My host family was very caring and I was able to experience many things with them.

What did the language study trip do for you personally and for your career?

I have improved my English and now have the confidence to speak freely. I also have the feeling that I am now well prepared for the exam.

What tips would you give to anyone interested in a language study trip?

Go to a host family that only speaks the language spoken there and try to talk to them as much as possible. You should also make sure you look for friends from other countries so that you stick to the foreign language consistently.

Which language study abroad providers have you registered with?

I have registered via BIKU Languages AG.

How satisfied were you with this provider?

The service from BIKU was good and they were always open to questions and also very helpful. The staff were friendly and I felt that I was in good hands.
