At Language Lab, we offer a wide range of online language classes for people who are refugees or migrants (living in the EU), including those who are undocumented. Our paid members can also attend the classes, for only 20 euros a month.
New courses start every 3 أشهر and classes take place 2 times a week. Registrations for autumn term are closed!
