Custom Language Classes for Individuals and Small Groups

Custom group language classes from the Tennessee Language Center (TLC) are available in almost any world language and offer maximum flexibility to meet your needs. You set a convenient time and frequency, whether that’s once a week, twice a week, every day, or something different! Custom language classes may be held online or face-to-face at our Nashville center location, a local library or coffee shop, or at your local business — whatever works for the instructor and the learners.

Reasons to Take a Custom Language Class (Instead of a Group Language Class)

  • If you want to learn a language and we do not currently offer a group class in that language, please email us at worldlanguages@tennessee.edu. We will try our best to accommodate you.
  • Or even for languages for which we do offer a group class (that meet once a week for two hours over a period of nine weeks), you may prefer customized language instruction in order to:
    • Move at your own pace;
    • Meet on a different schedule with more or less contact hours per week; and/or
    • Work towards a specific goal, for example:
        • Future travel (personal or work-related)
        • Career advancement (the demand for bilingual professionals is rising exponentially in the USA!)
        • Deepening your understand of and connection to other cultures
        • And many more — what’s your goal?
