Language Holidays in Scotland Affiliate Scheme
When someone books one of our English immersion holidays thanks to you, we’ll thank you with a 10% payment.
Help Your Students
You’re here because you care about your students and know the transformational power of real-world English experiences to convert known language into easily spoken language.
Blue Noun holidays are immersive, joyful, and conversation-rich.
We don’t do classrooms, we do connections, experiences, and confidence.
If you know someone who’d love this kind of language experience, we’d love to thank you for helping us reach them.
When someone books a holiday through your recommendation, we’ll send you 10% of the first week’s* course price – that’s usually around £160.
It’s a quiet, word-of-mouth system built on trust, not throwing money at a Meta Ads.
*At the point of writing, 70% of our clients have returned for a second week of adventure.
Share our Adult English Language Holidays
To be clear, we are not asking you to do any pushy selling.
We know we have a unique, quality offer – but it’s very hard to get word to the people who need to hear it.
Right now, no one is Googling ‘bespoke adult language holidays which improve your English while exploring Scotland, with an English coach by your side and WITHOUT spending time in a classroom’.
If anything, they are searching ‘English language holiday’ and seeing a bunch of overpriced, generic, corporate language school classroom offers.
Until I get better at S.E.O., I need help spreading the word.
The classrooms ARE the right learning option for some – but not all.
Many people would benefit from nature walks, woodland saunas, hikes, crafting, food & drink tasting…
Help us to reach the people who are waiting to speak.
No-classroom English Holidays
So few people think it’s POSSIBLE to have a relaxing, healthy holiday – and come home with better English.
Supporting Our Affiliates
Our English conversation holidays support the language work you are doing in class – we just let it free in the hills and communities of Scotland.
Our holiday takers return home WANTING more English lessons, as we have flipped learing English from ‘have to‘ to ‘want to’.
Independent ESOL teachers, we are stronger together 💪.
Our independent language school empowers our community with every step we take, including talented independent ELT teachers worldwide.
Visit the ESOL Hub Page, which lists ways we support independent English teachers.
