Danish or English Language Classes with introductions to key aspects of Danish Culture and Society At International People’s College we have hosted English and Danish summer language courses for more than 30 years. With our unique mixture of language classes optimized to all levels (from beginners to university level) and introductions to key aspects of Danish culture and society we offer a unique framework for anyone interested in Denmark and the Danes. Like other Danish Folk High Schools, International People’s College is a boarding school, which means that while staying at the school, you don’t need to think of anything but learning. You will be offered food by our international kitchen, accommodation in single or double rooms, wifi coverage on the entire campus, the possibility to watch movies in our small cinema, doing assignments outside in the school’s beautiful gardens, enjoy a late night bonfire by our lake, go to one of the several beaches nearby, or take a stroll in historic downtown Elsinore - the city immortalised in Shakespeare’s Hamlet. On both the Danish and the English course you will get language lessons in the morning and learn about the Danish culture and society in the afternoon - going on excursions during weekends. Afternoon lectures on both the Danish and the English course include introduction to the Danish democracy and welfare state as well as different parts of the vibrant Danish society that allegedly is home to some of the world’s happiest people. You will learn about the educational system, past and present, and the treasures of Danish design and architecture and of course meet several Danes. More than that the courses offer excursions to some of Denmark’s most beautiful nature spots and museums and a fully guided trip around Copenhagen, Capital of Denmark. “I am fascinated with Europe and I wanted to experience a country there from the inside out – not just go sightseeing. Furthermore I wanted to improve my English language skills. The summer course was more than I hoped for – it was the time of my life!” (Sayuri, Japan)
