Set in a home environment, students will find a very friendly and holistic atmosphere, very conducive to the learning of a foreign language.

Beatrice Glattauer, the teacher, has worked for twenty years at the La Trobe University and Melbourne University Language Centres teaching French, German, Italian and Spanish at all levels including the Preparation for VCE Courses and International Baccalaureate.

Her own enthusiasm for languages is reflected in her teaching approach: audio-visual-lingual which helps students to learn the foreign language in the most effective and enjoyable way.

Types of Tuition

Tuition is in small groups or individually depending on preference and specific need. Eg. If you need to learn Spanish, Italian, French or German in a short period of time in a rather intensive pace, you would prefer an individual tuition to achieve your personal goal within your time limitations. Whilst if you like to participate in a small group, sharing the same learning aims, the group tuition will be your choice.

Never too early to learn a language! We offer classes for children aged 5 years onwards. Language learning should be an enjoyable experience, the use of puppets, drama, games, songs, dances will ensure children love coming to classes




VCE Preparation

French - German - Spanish - Italian

This is a continuous Language Course aimed at preparing Year 11 and 12 VCE students

The Preparation Courses focus on the requirements for the examination, prepares students for the General Conversation, Report and Discussion as well as the written examination.




Language Reading

Courses for Undergraduate and Postgraduate Students, French, German, Italian and Spanish.

In any field of studies, the reading comprehension of a foreign language broadens the scope of knowledge, adding an enriching tool to any research work.

This Course is offered at two levels:

  • Introductory Reading Courses

  • Continuation Reading Courses




Learning Levels

Normally you would choose your own level. You are a:

  • Beginner if you have either never learned the language or had done so a long time ago and have the feeling that you have forgotten everything. A fresh start is beneficial.

  • Level 2 (Post Beginners) Some knowledge of the target language. 25-30 hours of formal recent tuition.

  • Level 3 (Upper Intermediate) More than 60 hours of formal tuition and familiarity with the use of past and future tenses.

  • Level 4 (Advanced) A degree of fluency is required at a level of confidence sufficient to maintain a normal speed conversation and the understanding of the reading of literary texts.

If you are not sure of the level in which you should enrol, please ring the School to seek advice.
