Austria is the number one ski country for many Europeans. Not only because of the après-ski, but also because it is a perfect country for skiing with children. Many ski resorts are within reasonable driving distance and easy to get to. Moreover, the Austrian ski resorts are very child-friendly: many facilities for kids and many multilingual ski instructors. Ideal!

Multilingual ski lessons in Austria

Many European ski instructors travel to Austria every year to give ski lessons for a season. When you go to Austria for your ski holiday, you often have the choice to take lessons with a mulitlingual teacher. We often see that German-speaking ski instructors also speak quite a bit of English and Dutch. For the children this makes skiing lessons just a little more pleasant.
