Language study trip to South Africa: Learn English at the southern tip of Africa

Questions and answers

Here at Ausbildung-Weiterbildung.ch we have compiled an extensiveAdvisorwhich is ideal as preparation for a language study trip to South Africa. It will tell you everything you need to know about the most popular cities for language travel in South Africa, the best time of year for your trip, the language courses on offer, entry requirements, safety and costs, which should make your planning a lot easier.

Swiss citizens do not require a visa to enter South Africa as long as their entire stay in the country does not exceed 90 days. However, before your language study trip to South Africa, please check with the South AfricanEmbassy in Bernabout the current entry requirements, so that nothing stands in the way of an exciting time in South Africa.

English diploma preparation courses in particular usually have a minimum duration of between 8 and 12 weeks, depending on the school. This does not apply to the IELTS or TOEFL test. Here the minimum course duration is significantly shorter, often only 2 weeks depending on the intensity. General language courses, also known as standard language courses, are offered at many schools for as little as one week.

The number of lessons per week in which you learn English during a language study trip to South Africa can vary depending on the type of English course and the chosen language school. As a rule, the lessons amount to 20 to 30 per week, with a higher number of lessons being required for Cambridge diplomas such as Cambridge First (FCE), Cambridge Advanced (CAE) or Cambridge Proficiency (CPE).
