Deciding on a language school

Deciding on a language school

Introduction
	Once you've decide to go to language school, how do you decide which one to attend? The choice can depend on a number of factors, which you must weigh carefully against each other.

Guidelines
	Here are some guidelines to follow when you decide on a language school:
	Find out which schools your organization recommends or requires. Weigh the cost of each school. Find out about the instructional approach used in each school and see which one fits your preferences. Look at the daily timetable of each school and see if it fits your family's needs. Find out what the teacher-student ratio is. Investigate what kinds of resources are available at the school: language labs, media resources, organized activities or outings.
