English Language blog - Ruth

Great! You’ve been learning English!

And now you are travelling to Scotland to practice.

Only,  it can be surprisingly difficult to actually speak English on holiday…

This page gives you options for a day of speaking English in Perthshire.

You came to Scotland to improve your English,

but just how do you begin speaking – and who is correcting your errors?

You Can Book Private English Workshops

One solution is to spend a day with your own private English coach.

That’s a personal English language coach who will develop your language skills while guiding you around the best of local Scottish culture.

At Blue Noun, we offer a private English class in Crieff or immersion English experiences around Perthshire.

Immersion Activities are NOT a Traditional Language Class

So it won’t cost you a precious day of holiday.

We offer coaching based around the superb holiday activities available in Perthshire.

Our coaching is activity-based, and designed around what YOU wish to see and do.

It’s reactive.

We’ll work out together how to take your English to the next level.

Does it Work?

We can’t get you fluent in a day, but we can take a huge step in the right direction – and that’s helping you love and enjoy speaking English.

You get a great day’s holiday, and the feeling of loving speaking English. 

Immersion English Coaching: What to Expect

Language Learning versus Language Acquisition

The theory behind language learning and language acquisition, and why you need both!

Language learning primarily involves studying grammar rules and language structures through formal instruction. While this provides important theoretical knowledge, it may not develop the practical fluency and confidence needed for real-life conversations.

On the other hand, language acquisition occurs through immersion and exposure to the language.

It involves actively using the language in meaningful interactions and conversations – especially in natural or association-rich contexts (ie. outside a classroom – and especially in a land with the language spoken.)

Unfortunately, even language acquisition won’t get you far on its own:  It needs to be supplemented by error correction.

Immersion English coaching is so richly rewarding because it builds both skill sets at the same time. You are learning about the structures of the language while putting it directly into practice.

By choosing immersion English coaching, you can develop practical communication skills and an intuitive understanding of the language.
