About
The NRCSA Center in Montreux is located on the city’s main street in one of Switzerland’s most famous tourist spots, on the banks of Lake Geneva near the beautiful lakeside promenade lined with exotic trees.
You can easily get to the school from your accommodation by bus or train, as the bus and train stations are 5 minutes away by foot. The course center features 8 bright, comfortable classrooms, some of them with stunning views of the lake and the Alps.
The small size of the school allows us to offer each student personal attention and assist you when you arrive and throughout your stay. Furthermore, you may use the many computer stations or the wireless network, which covers the entire school, to access the internet and your e-mail free of charge. After your classes, you may stroll with other students right onto terraces that line the shores of Lake Geneva or head over to the nearby shops.

Staying with a host family offers another dimension of language learning that takes place naturally when you are not even thinking about it during mealtime conversation or a “movie” night or while playing a board game.
Homestays with host families are an excellent opportunity to soak up the local culture as you discover the mentalities, expressions, and daily lives of native speakers. We are very well-acquainted with all of our host families, and each family has satisfied our quality criteria.
The students apartments are located in the heart of Montreux within walking distance of the course center, business centers, restaurants, bars and cinemas, the lake, the railway station and the central post office. This accommodation is intended for students who wish to make socializing a priority while enjoying a high degree of independence.
Very comfortable single and double rooms are available. All apartments feature a television set, a fully equipped kitchen, a washing machine, a free Internet connection as well as WiFi access.
