friLingue / Braunwald

Our newest language camp in the beautiful Glarnerland offers formidable views of the Tödi! Braunwald is car-free and lies on a sunny terrace high above the sea of fog. In our newest friLingue camp you will learn English, French or German in small groups of 6 participants. During 15 hours per week, we study French, English or German. In the afternoon, we explore the surroundings together, go on an action-packed excursion or organise exciting workshops - and there's no shortage of fun! After an intensive long day, we have a delicious homemade dinner from our typical friLingue cuisine and then we continue with the evening programme, where we really go all out again. Braunwald - the sunny terrace of the Glarnerland - ideal for learning French, German or English The camp in Braunwald takes place in our Adrenalin Backpacker Hostel. Here we have plenty of space: three large terraces, single, double, 4-bed, 6-bed and multi-bed rooms and a bar with syrup and other non-alcoholic delicacies! There's also a football table and a pool table.

Teaching and Lessons

The biggest advantage of our language camps is the fact that we're organising language lessons in small groups of 6 participants per group, on average. All of our teachers are young and motivated with previous teaching experience. It's important to add that Switzerland itself is one of the safest and most secure environments in the world, with a great nationality mix. When it comes to our philosophy - friLingue is apolitical and independent, however, friLingue also has a philosophy and values. friLingue wants to encourage young participants both humanely and socially. friLingue does not impose itself as an authoritative teacher, but rather as a friend and confidant. It also means that friLingue expects more from young people and teachers than would perhaps be expected in a normal language course; be responsible; have initiative; be willing to help; be humorous; be punctual and spontaneous - like one would expect of a true friend. friLingue fuels off the attitude of its participants; the more positive and motivated the participants, the more fun the experience will be! friLingue also wants to introduce young people to new hobbies and interests, raise awareness of environmental protection, open new horizons, to open the door to the world and set an example as mature and responsible people. friLingue believes in a better world: Yes, we can!
