Language Programs in Singapore

You will find all language programs offered in Singapore in the diamond-shaped main island, the only one of the country’s 63 islands that allows human settlement. The main island, widely known as Pulau Ujong or Singapore Island, forms the greater part of the country in terms of land area and population. With over 5 million people residing in an area of 710 square kilometres, it is the world’s 31st most densely populated island. But unlike other densely populated countries, Singapore has an extremely high standard of living.

With over 50 percent of its land area covered by greenery, and with four nature reserves and 50 major parks, it has earned the moniker “the Garden City”. The city centre is situated in the south, and is made up of the new Marina Bay area, the Riverside, the Orchard Road shopping area, and the Shenton way financial district, or more popularly known as the Central Business District (CBD).

Sprawling, self-contained residential towns have risen around the modern city centre, but the city centre remains the prime location for language programs in Singapore.
