The Angloville Adult Programme is a great opportunity for native English speakers to meet local participants – successful professionals from all walks of life – and encourage them to practice their English language skills. Throughout the programme you will learn about the local culture and meet like-minded travellers from around the world.
On each program, there are around 12-20 adult locals typically aged 30-60 and an equal number of English-speaking participants. Adult participants come from all walks of life and various backgrounds, from individual entrepreneurs to corporate professionals and even artists. They are successful in their profession but need a boost in their English skills, especially when it comes to communication. You can learn a lot about them, their profession, and the country itself during deep and meaningful conversations throughout the day.
You will be doing mostly one-on-one (one local and one English-speaking participant) conversational sessions, but programmes include group activities, telephone sessions, pronunciation sessions, and mock negotiation sessions as well.
The first day starts with getting to know each other and features a programme introduction. In the afternoon you will participate in ice-breakers and begin the first speaking sessions. You will take part in various 50 minute sessions, and you will also work with your assigned local buddy on their presentation on a topic of their choice, which they will present at the end of the week.
Meals (breakfast, lunch, and dinner) last one hour each and there are also 1,5 hours of free time daily. After a day filled with sessions and activities, you will have a chance to rest and have fun in the evening during the entertainment hour and social time. You are welcome to introduce and lead your favourite games! At the end of the programme, all local participants will give their presentations and you will all receive the Angloville certificate of participation.
Topics and materials are always provided, but we do not limit the format of the conversations and participants are free to talk about anything they like while taking a stroll, playing sports, enjoying a tea or coffee, etc.
Each Angloville venue offers various amenities such as indoor and outdoor swimming pools, tennis courts, jacuzzis, saunas, table tennis and pool tables, walking and cycling trails, etc. Enjoying what the venues have to offer is part of what makes Angloville such a unique and fun experience.
We invite you to participate in our free walking tour of your departure city! The tours take place one day before the programme, usually between 10 AM and 2 PM. They are not mandatory, but highly recommended! You will have a chance to see some beautiful local sights, get to know the history of the city, and perhaps enjoy a lunch with some of your fellow international participants afterwards.
