THE DIALOGUE METHOD

For over 19 years, Dialogue Languages has been the leading specialist in full immersion intensive residential language courses for adults and executives.

The Dialogue Group has its headquarters in Belgium, and enjoys a European presence with language centres in six countries.

Our fully personalised courses combine the advantages of a pleasant home-stay with the benefits of a top quality language course where every moment is put to good use.

AN EFFECTIVE METHOD

Although the Dialogue method is modern and in many respects unique, it has incorporated the best knowledge of traditional methods in language teaching with modern developments in communication and language acquisition. It was developed after 20 years of experience with earlier methods of teaching, which showed the need for a new method, such as that developed at Dialogue.

All lessons simultaneously work towards four essential goals:

  • Developing listening comprehension and pronunciation skills (the listening threshold)
  • Learning to speak without making mistakes (the linguistic threshold)
  • Practising appropriate means of expression (the cultural threshold)

Whatever your precise objectives, you will simultaneously improve your confidence, pronunciation, comprehension, grammar and vocabulary.

A PROGRAM TAILORED TO SUIT YOUR PERSONAL NEEDS

At Dialogue, your one-to-one French lessons are fully adapted to your needs and learning style. After an initial evaluation, your program is designed to meet your specific objectives. At the end of your stay, you will take your own personalised manual and CD with you.

NATURAL IMMERSION

Dialogue offers you a true 'immersion' into the language. A week with us means 70 hours of contact with your new language, at a rate of 14 hours per day.

Dialogue Languages created a method that guarantees results in the teaching of languages and comunication.  Dialogue Languages ensures value for money by offering:

One-to-one lessons, (1 teacher + 1 student): made-to-measure and completely personalised …in a total immersion environment using ideal facilities and equipment.

Presence of your teachers during all breaks and meals to accompany and support you throughout the day and evening. You learn and practise continuously, not only in lessons, enjoying an ongoing and homogenous training program from 8:30 a.m. to 10:30 p.m.  Your progress will be immediate and measurable.

Meals are served in the language centres.  Excellent home-made cuisine is cooked fresh daily and served in a family style setting. 

Limited number of students. We welcome only a handful of students each week to ensure that you feel truly at home. You will find a convivial atmosphere in all our Centres, where communicating in a foreign language becomes a pleasure.

Qualified and experienced trainers. Every instructor working at Dialogue teaches in his/her own native language.  Trained by Dialogue, they generally have 8 years of teaching experience in language instruction.

A friendly atmosphere. You are treated as a member of the family at Dialogue. We are attentive to all aspects of your stay.Your room is comfortable and fully equiped with a desk, CD player/radio, television and DVD player, private bathroom (washbasin, shower and toilet) and a Wi-Fi connection to the internet for your laptop.  You will find a convivial atmosphere in all our Centres, where communicating in a foreign language becomes a pleasure.
