Studying at the ½ûÂþÌìÌà Language Centre

Find out more about what it is like to study at the ½ûÂþÌìÌà Language Centre

Watch a short film that will tell you more about us and what we do.

Learners are seen as language users and social agents, and thus language is as a vehicle for communication rather than as a subject to study. Seeing learners as social agents implies involving them in the learning process.

The learning of ‘other’ languages will lead to a more in-depth understanding of ‘other’ societies and cultures and of the diversity and multiplicity of today’s globalised societies and through literature you’ll expand your mind, gaining understanding and experiencing other systems of living and other worlds.
