Dictate the terms of your surrender to the ultimate onion-flavored corn snack in the language of your choice with today's Groupon: for $132, you get a six-week group language class at ABC Language Exchange New York, located near Penn Station (up to a $265 value including the registration fee).

With a variety of group classes available during daytime, weekend, and evening hours, a class at ABC Language Exchange is ideal for young professionals, middle-aged professionals, and elderly professionals. The teaching staff consists of experienced polyglots who have spent their lives not only studying and teaching language, but putting their skills to use while living and working abroad. Over the course of six weeks, once a week, a teacher will guide your progress and stretch your brain's plasticity as it absorbs the shapes and contours of a foreign language. Group classes are small, typically from four to nine people per class, and last 1.5 hours. Click here for more information.

Although it is easier to learn a language during childhood, adults are fully capable of picking up and retaining new language skills. The learning process itself is akin to marathon training for lazy neural synapses, while acquiring a new language can open all sorts of arched doors, French windows, and Venetian blinds. Whether for a sightseeing trip to Italy or because the office just relocated to Constantinople, a class at ABC Language Exchange—also responsible for the instructors of the language program at Columbia Business School—will enrich life and mind alike.
