language institutes
Foreign tongue schools
Language institutes are organizations that teach foreign languages, typically offering courses in the language of the country where they're located to non-native speakers.
Many countries operate official language institutes abroad to promote their language and culture: the British Council teaches English, the Goethe-Institut teaches German, the Alliance Française teaches French.
The term also covers private language schools: She enrolled in a language institute to improve her Spanish before the trip.
