Language Programs in Switzerland

If you’re interested in a new adventure, consider language learning abroad in Switzerland! This country has four official languages—German, French, Italian, and Romansh (a derivative of the language spoken in ancient Rome), so there’s plenty to keep you busy. Switzerland, officially known as the Swiss Confederation, offers more than 37 other languages you can hear, study, and speak as well. Add to this the benefits of clean and crisp air, convenient travel options, organizational efficiency, and gorgeous vistas, and you can see why language courses in Switzerland are a great choice!

A Guide to Language Study Abroad in Switzerland

Best Cities

When it comes to exploring language schools in Switzerland, you’ll find there are beautiful places to study throughout the country, including the following three locations:

Lugano. This southern city, situated on a lake with a mountain view, is the largest with an Italian speaking majority outside of Italy. When you’re studying the Italian language abroad in Lugano, you can visit museums, attend festivals, and participate in any number of outdoor activities from boating, to hiking, to sports like soccer and tennis. 

Zurich. If you want to study German in Switzerland, you’ll find exciting opportunities to pursue language study in Zurich, a progressive urban center with world-renowned museums, parks, and world heritage sites. You can also go clubbing one night and to an opera the next, or sports in the afternoon followed by a traditional Swiss dinner and drinks.

Geneva. Known for its exceptional quality of life, you can take in all of the best things Switzerland has to offer while studying French in this global city. The United Nations has their headquarters here, which means access to all kinds of other languages and culture as well.

From level A2, I successfully prepared and passed the DELF B2 exam in 10 months. Compared to other language schools in Geneva, ELFI offers the best combination of quality and affordability. Highly recommended for anyone serious about learning French! Here are the reasons that made this experience the best for me. • You can join classes anytime during the year • Online and in-person options available • Diverse teaching materials and interactive approach • Highly professional teachers • Exceptional support and individual attention • Management is student-oriented
