What is the E.M.A.?

Set in a spacious room in the main building (1er-Mars 26), the E.M.A. was created to support learner’s autonomy, alone and in small groups (tandem programmes and workshops) and provide everyone with practical information about second language learning.

You’ll find at the E.M.A. a large choice of resources to learn English, German, Swiss German, Spanish and Italian: books, CD-ROMs, DVDs, CDs, novels. Everyone is welcome and will be advised about the best material suited to their needs. Every linguistic competence is covered: speaking, listening, reading, writing, as well as grammar, spelling, pronunciation. For all languages we offer training from beginner to advanced.

As from now, novels, bilingual books and audio-books can be borrowed via Swisscovery.

Monolingual and bilingual tandems are welcome in our lounge area. Even if the partners in a tandem work well together, it is not always easy to find topics to discuss or activities to do together in a language or the other. The E.M.A. provides games and didactic material in different media to help spice up your rendezvous, as well as dictionaries (on paper and iPad).

Finally, you’ll find advice to guide you in second language learning, either during the tutorials for specific languages or taking part in the workshops organised by the LC.
