When you enter any Concordia Language Village, you enter a world of possibilities. Once you pass through “customs,” you are welcomed into a unique, authentic cultural immersion experience that lets you live the target language of your choice all day, every day. At Concordia Language Villages, we don’t separate life and language learning. From the moment you arrive, counselors and instructors will communicate in your target language, just as if you were learning from inside the country itself.
When you plan to attend one of our programs, we are happy to assist you in getting here. We provide several options to accommodate your needs.

Villagers’ school-year days are filled with noise and distraction. They are wired and complex. One of the goals of our program is to slow down, listen, tune in and connect. To effect the full quality of an immersion program, we ask our villagers and our staff to be in the Language Village moment. We require that all electronic devices be left at home or checked at the Village gate during the customs process. Four-week villagers will receive their phone for a limited amount of time on a day in the middle of their program, then return it to staff for its safe-keeping for the last two weeks.
