How does a language holiday work?

Before you arrive
Ahead of your trip, you’ll take a quick placement test so we can find the right group for you. One week before the holiday starts, there’s an online meeting on Google Meet where you’ll meet your fellow participants and get to know each other a little before you arrive in Croatia.

Your first day
On Monday, we all gather about 15 minutes before the first class for a relaxed welcome coffee. We’ll meet in the full group, then split into our language-level groups. Lessons run each day from 9:00 to 12:30 (with breaks), and every session starts with a brief overview of the day’s goals and ends with a quick recap.

Apply what you’ve learned
After class, there’s a 45-minute homework session where your teacher will be on hand to answer any questions. You’ll work on exercises tailored to the holiday experience, helping you reinforce new vocabulary and grammar so you can use them right away when you’re out exploring or chatting with locals.

Activities & downtime
To make the most of your stay in Croatia, we organise three optional activities each week – usually a city tour on Monday, a museum visit on Wednesday, and a coffee & cake get-together on Thursday. These usually start mid-afternoon, giving you time to relax or grab lunch beforehand. Evenings are free, but many participants meet up for drinks or dinner; sometimes your teacher might join in too!

Community & collaboration
Throughout the week, you’ll team up with different classmates for our fun treasure hunt, solving riddles around town. On Friday, you’ll share your discoveries with the whole group, and the winning team gets a small prize! We’ll also set up a WhatsApp group to keep everyone connected during the holiday and beyond. By the end of the week, you’ll have not only improved your language skills but also formed new friendships and unforgettable memories in Croatia.
