Languages for All

At Languages for All, students studying at the University of Birmingham can learn a language for free (Free Language Courses). We currently offer Arabic, Chinese (Mandarin), French, German, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Russian, and Spanish. Depending on the language you study, our levels can range from complete beginners to proficient learners.

If you are interested in learning a new language or advancing your current skills and would like to receive a reminder email when our application process opens, please provide your email address here:

Once our application portal opens on 3rd June 2024, you will receive a reminder. The application portal closes on 15th September 2024, and successful applicants will be notified by email before semester 1 commences.   

Please note: The current form is NOT an application for a language class but authorises us to send you a reminder. You must submit a separate application once this becomes available.
