Add to your CV with a language stay abroad

Thinking about taking some time off to study abroad, improve your English language skills, and gaining a world-class qualification that will help you earn a higher salary in your future career? 

Add an international element to your studies and make yourself shine above all other candidates in the job market by taking your higher education abroad in English. Upskilling is one of the best things you can do while travelling. Experiencing life in a new country is one of the most exciting adventures you can have and coming home with new knowledge gives you a very competitive advantage. Unlock your professional potential with ESL!

As the world becomes more connected, an increasing number of industries are looking for internationally minded professionals with strong language skills. We offer a wide range of academic options to add to your travel programme, depending on your needs. If you’re looking for credits during your undergraduate or postgraduate studies, or whether you would simply like to gain new professional skills, this is a step in the right direction.

Are you looking to take your career to the next level? Our higher education and professional diploma courses will provide you with university-level tuition in your subject of interest while you experience your gap year abroad and establish your international career. 

No matter what industry you’re in, higher education and diplomas are almost guaranteed to increase your salary, and when you study that degree abroad, the difference is even greater! The international exposure you experience, the new connections you make, the unparalleled language progression you’ll have — all of it translates to a higher-paying job for you.

Combine an amazing travel experience with high quality education for an adventure that jumpstarts your career!

ESL offers a wide range of options in different countries to suit your preference. Whether you would like an adventure to the other side of the world by taking your higher education in Australia or Canada or have a once-in-a-lifetime experience in Europe — the choice is yours!

It’s a fact: there’s no more efficient way to learn a language than using it and being exposed to it in different contexts every day over a length of time. This is precisely what our general courses offer you – the opportunity to receive outstanding language lessons as well as endless opportunities to put your new skills into practice. And that’s how you cement knowledge!

An official language certificate is a key asset. Its advantages include standing out from the crowd in a sea of job applicants, enabling you to get a fulfilling job at an international company or being able to opt out of the language test to enter university abroad. Our ESL partner schools have plenty of experience in preparing students to obtain official language certificates. Among their course selection, you can choose specific exam preparation courses to give you all the confidence you need on the big day.

Speaking a foreign language – or several – will advance your professional career in more ways than one. Aside from providing you with an added value that will make your CV stand out to employers, you will maximise your job-seeking possibilities by being able to work in different countries and through different languages.

These programmes combine a general language course with an internship, a paid job or a volunteering programme. Putting your language skills to the test in a real-world situation is priceless, and you’ll be amazed at how much your fluency improves as a result!

Whether you're new to the field of education or an experienced teacher, our Language Teacher Training courses will take your career to the next level! In partnership with accredited teacher training centers in superb international locations, we offer language teacher development courses for both native and non-native speakers.

These courses offer a more mature study environment than a standard adult language course (which is available to anyone aged 30 or over). If you need English mainly for the less formal areas of professional life, as opposed to for a specific professional goal, this course is a great fit.

Learning a language in a group class is great, but it’s not always the best option for everyone. If you want your lessons to be more focussed on your specific needs, but still benefit from the international atmosphere and social activities of a language school, our private language courses abroad are the best option for you!

Our private language courses abroad will provide you with a more intensive, one-on-one environment for you to study your second language how you see fit. However, as private lessons are available in all of our schools worldwide, you’ll still benefit from the exciting activities, vibrant international atmosphere, and social opportunities of our schools.

Private courses can be taken as a standalone course or combined with group lessons to work on your specific areas of improvement while also learning and living the group course experience!

Are your language goals too ambitious for a classic group programme? Are you looking for an alternative to a traditional language classroom? Do you have a specific objective in mind and need a focussed environment with personalised support?  There’s  a way to hit your targets quickly and efficiently, without setting foot in a school: live and study at your teacher’s house with ESL.

These immersive language programmes abroad match learners with an experienced language teacher in the country of their choice. The result? A personalised learning experience that delivers the fastest possible language progress. 

Accelerate your learning with ESL at the teacher’s home

More and more students are finding in blended learning the perfect approach towards their language learning. The reason is simple: doing an online course is a fantastic way to warm up before your departure so you’re extra prepared for the experience. Likewise, choosing to do an online course after your on-site studies will guarantee you keep up all of your newly-acquired skills!
