use of language with their own personal teacher while enjoying horse riding

one of their chosen sports. Language lessons take place in the morning

Note for courses with Horse Riding
This course provides for up to 5 hours horse riding at a local horse riding
facility. It is preferable that you would have some prior experience of
horse riding but lessons can be provided if required. We require that
you arrange your own private insurance to cover this sport and that you
provide us with a copy of your fully inclusive policy at least 7 days
before course commencement. If no such policy is produced by you we reserve
the right to cancel your course. Please ensure that you have appropriate
riding gear and a riding hat with you as this is required before riding.
If you don't own the necessary equipment you may be able to hire the appropriate
gear - please contact us for further information. Schedule for horse riding
may need to be altered to suit weather conditions.
Information on all courses
Every course involves some work on pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary,
speaking, listening, reading and writing. In your language needs analysis
you will discuss the approximate amount of time you would like to spend
on the various language areas. Your teacher will of course give you professional
advice but your wishes are always respected and taken into account in
every course! Therefore the content and direction of your course is planned
with you and only you in mind.
Lessons for all courses are 60 minutes each with a 10 minute rest period
and take place in the morning and early afternoon depending on the number
of lessons you have booked. The exact schedule will be discussed and agreed
with your teacher on the first morning however it is usual to have the
majority, if not all, of the lessons completed in the morning. This schedule
will enable you to maximise your free time to explore the city and surrounding
area.
There will be a certain amount of homework assigned each day connected
to the language covered. This provides a chance for valuable practice
of what you have learned and allows your teacher to monitor your progress.
The amount of homework assigned is agreed with you and should take no
more than an hour or so to complete.
On the final day of your course there will be an opportunity for feedback
and your teacher will recommend a strategy for future study when you return
home. We invite you to keep in touch with us and your teacher as we are
interested in your progress and of course hope to see you back at some
time in the future!
