Beyond Words: WISLI’s Unique Approach to Language Instruction

Eight weeks: that’s all it takes to ignite your language skills at the Wisconsin Intensive Summer Language Institutes (WISLI) at UW–Madison. WISLI offers a unique approach to language instruction due to its intensive environment that allows students to focus full-time on their language learning. The eight-week summer programs, equivalent to two semesters of study, engage students in over 30 less commonly taught languages (LCTLs) that cultivate proficiency and a deep understanding of language and culture. Students of all levels are encouraged to apply, whether they are starting from scratch or looking to enhance existing language skills.
