Why a CERAN summer language course makes a difference

A structured and inspiring environment
On-site accommodation, sports infrastructures and dedicated educational spaces: safe, stimulating and conducive to concentration.
An active, demanding and caring pedagogy
Native or bilingual trainers and activity leaders trained in the CERAN method, accompany each child with attention and encouragement. Each interaction becomes an opportunity to progress and to gain confidence.

All the answers.
In all transparency.
We explain everything to you: supervision, safety, levels, organization and follow-up.
Courses generally start on the last Sunday in June. The last week of classes ends at the end of the 3rd week of August.
The residential campus (Saint-Roch, Ferrières — Belgium) is fully supervised 24 hours a day by qualified teaching and animation teams during the day and by our guardian angels at night.
The supervision ratio is the highest (≈ 1 adult for 3 young people).
Clear protocols, accessibility records, a secure environment and support during excursions are in place.
Our courses are organized on the principle of total immersion. All our course, meal and entertainment activities take place in the target language with our teams. Our courses are intended to be intensive (28 lessons per week, classes of 6-7 students on average), fun (numerous activities) and our interactive courses (based on our own method). Our trainers and animators are native or bilingual and trained in our method. The staff - student ratio is 1 - 3 to ensure linguistic security and practice.
Young people live, eat and learn in the target language, supervised by trainers and animators. They are stimulated in a natural way and interact with other international students in the target language.
Yes. Total immersion (lessons + meals + activities) makes it possible to set up oral automations more quickly than an internship or a traditional course. Each week includes 28 structured lessons, in small groups of up to 9 students per level. Your children practice more in one week than in a year at school.
The progression is validated by a personal competence assessment at the end of the internship on the CEFR (official European framework).
Yes, a level test is carried out before the start of the course. We then create homogeneous groups according to age and level to ensure balanced learning.
Yes absolutely. In some cases, we recommend adding a few individual courses during the internship.
