"The personalized feedback and clear explanations of the material from my instructors at Beloit CLS allowed my Chinese level to progress rapidly, establishing a strong foundation to succeed in Intermediate Chinese at my home college the following semester. Meaningful, daily conversations and cultural activities with my classmates and instructors solidified my interest and dedication to learning Chinese. The experience, knowledge and connections from CLS has continued to enrich my life, even one year after completing the program."

Riveting. Captivating. Enticing.

Is there a good word to describe Center for Langauage Studies (CLS)? Those three are just the start. The CLS program at Beloit College offers you the opportunity to become fluent in a critical language without leaving the country.

And the best part, is that it is affordable🥳. Because we care about the education and experience you receive. Did you know that all students who are enrolled in the Center for Language Studies are eligible for the John Wyatt Award, named in memory of the founder of CLS, John Wyatt (1937-2008).
🚩The deadline for award is May 1st, 2022🚩

Dr. Wyatt served as professor of comparative literature and classics at Beloit College from 1971 to 1996, and founded the Center for Language Studies in 1982. He served as instructor and dean of the Frank Lloyd Wright School of Architecture from 1994 - 2004.

Krystian, a third year CLS Chinese student from Villanova University, came to Beloit and here is what he has to say about our program.

"Originally, I wanted to go to China to teach English because I thought I would really help hone my skills. An immersion program but I ultimately decided to go to Beloit because I realized that just by going to China and teaching English, I 'd use English in the classroom, as a language of instruction. At Beloit, outside the classroom we use Chinese as much as possible."

We truly live up to the phrase, "Live a language as you learn it." From conversation, to food and meals, to art and culture. You can immerse yourself in the language without having to travel to the location.

Though we do encourage going there one day, let us help you prepare!

Our intensive immersion programs in Chinese, Japanese, and Russian are ideal for students and professionals working towards fluency in a critical language.
