It is an undeniable fact that knowing different languages will open important doors for you, bring you both academic and professional success, and will have positive financial effects on you. However, in addition to these facts, the spiritual pleasure that comes from knowing a new language can be even happier than getting into a car you have been dreaming of or having a very exciting vacation.

Age Range in Overseas Language Schools
Although there are programs that can appeal to participants of all ages in overseas language schools, the age of participation in the programs usually starts at 18+. Nevertheless, many overseas language schools accept students from the age of 16 to general language courses. In some schools, special classes can be created for students under the age of 16 throughout the year.
There is generally no maximum age limit in overseas language schools (except for special programs). While the average age in classes is around 23-24 throughout the year, this average drops slightly during the summer period.
Due to increasing demand in recent years, some overseas language schools have started to open special classes for participants over the age of 30, thus providing students in older age groups with the opportunity to study with their peers.

Accommodation Options for Language Schools Abroad
The most common question for those who will attend language schools abroad is where they will stay. Students who will study abroad can arrange their own accommodation or request accommodation from the language school they will attend. We can list the accommodation options in language schools abroad as follows.
• Homestay Accommodation: The most popular accommodation option for students who will study at language schools abroad is homestay. By staying with a local family arranged by the school, students practice more in daily life, get to know the culture of the country they are in closely and stay in more economical conditions compared to other accommodation options. In homestay accommodation, students are usually offered single or double rooms and meals are included in the accommodation. Some language schools can also arrange self-catering accommodation options that allow students to cook their own meals.
• Dormitory Accommodation: Another popular accommodation option in language schools abroad is dormitory accommodation. Single rooms with bathrooms are usually offered in the dormitory accommodation option, which is preferred by students who love independence and want a comfortable accommodation. (Many dormitories also have shared room & shared bathroom options). There is usually no meal option in dormitory accommodation. Students can cook their meals in the dormitory's shared kitchens. Some dormitories also have studio-type rooms with bathrooms and kitchens.
• Shared Flat / Student House Accommodation: In this accommodation option, students stay in shared flats arranged by their schools, together with other students of the school. In this accommodation option, students are usually offered single or double rooms, and areas such as bathrooms and kitchens are shared with other students in the house.
• Alternative Accommodations: Many foreign language schools can organize hotel, guesthouse or private flat accommodation upon special request.
