Summer courses for Teens Geneva area
Summer courses for teens Geneva area

My 16 year-old son is coming to spend July in Switzerland . He is interested in learning French, undertaking some daily sports activities and (my addition) heavy socializing with international peers.

I have come across a number of "live in" programs such as College du Leman, Le Rosey, etc. which last around three weeks. Some of these take place in the Geneva area and others do so in the mountains. I was wondering if somebody knew of comparable "day" programs where with a similar duration and mixed agenda, the student would at the end of each day and much to his/her regret, go back home instead.

Thanks,

S.
