Answer 3

Despite all the adverts for Intensive Language courses the best way to learn a language quicly is to go to the country where it is spoken. I leant French living in France and Spanish living in Spain, in 3 months you can learn what it would take 2 years at least and a lot of money to learn from books and classes.

If you dont have cash for classes (like I didnt) you can work in the country of your choice, we're all Europeans now so you dont even need a work permit. Apply to hotels, camp sites and bars during their peak seasons, you only have to do it for a few months, its not a career move its just a way to learn languages cheaply. Companies like Mark Warner have jobs in the hotel industry all over Europe and you could work a season in a Ski resort in France, make money and improve your French.

If you need financial help the European Union can offer you a grant. I was offered help to learn Spanish with the Leonard Da Vinci Scholorship, firstly you attend classes then you get an internship with a French company which looks great on your CV. The Leonardo website can be a bit confusing as it is aimed at companies and not individuals but the course exists and is fully funded, if I were you I'd give up on the website and just ring the number for details 020 7389 4389. I have pasted the links below.
