The Summer School on the Breton language and Heritage Studies organized by the University of Western Brittany will take place in Quimper (France) from June 10 to June 21 2024.

Depending on the number of participants, we are planning to offer level 1 to level 4 language classes. The language classes will be taught through the medium of English from Monday to Friday and will be followed by live conferences on Brittany's history and heritage. A more detailed program and schedule will be given soon.

The language classes are organized in three levels. Level 1 is designed for complete beginners, level 2 for false beginners and level 3 for intermediate learners. Conversation classes for all levels are taught by teachers from Kelenn which forms Breton teachers and the Mervent Breton language Association. They concentrate their teaching on the spoken language.

Levels 1 and 2 are taught by Dr. Tanguy Solliec (linguist and researcher specializing in Breton dialectometry, University of Western Brittany, CRBC).

Ms Myrzinn Boucher-Durand (MA, University of Western Brittany, CRBC / PhD researcher, Celtic Studies, Harvard University) teaches the level 3 group.
