This completely immersive language experience can be challenging, but it’s worth it. EF Gap Year students usually advance one official language level during a six-week module. Students on our semester program also see significant progress during their shorter, four-week stay.
This total immersion experience includes teacher-led instruction in the classroom, educational excursions around town, vocabulary-building in our learning lab, and additional self-directed exercises online at any time of day.
Yes! What those activities looks like depends on your school, but when lessons are over for the day, there’s a full program of activities, events, sports matches, and outings at school or around the city.
On the weekends, you’ll be invited to join optional excursions to other vibrant cities in your host country and beyond.
You’ll live in a shared room homestay with a local host, which is ideal for perfecting your accent.

You also have the option of living in an international student residence near your school at a supplemental price—subject to availability.Â
