We would like to invite you to an English-speaking weekend with 2 non-native English tutors and some other learners of English in a relaxing and less well-known part of the country.

What can you expect from the weekend?

• You can improve your fluency in English in a relaxed, friendly, totally ‘out-of-classroom’ environment through having a lot of opportunities to have conversations with us and each other
• You can meet other people who also learn English as a foreign language. (We expect people who can make themselves understood in everyday situations. Above level A2-B1)
• You will get to know some hidden treasures of the Hungarian countryside and landscape
• You will have a pleasant retreat in English – we will take a walk in the neighbourhood (depending on the weather), enjoy the peace and quiet and play games in English
• You will learn about rural lifestyles and Hungarian culture
• We also expect expats (any nationality) who are interested in the cultural differences and would like to discover the Hungary which are off the beaten track

You can check out some pictures here from our previous such weekend.
