Foreign Language Institute
Welcome to the Foreign Language Institute
The Foreign Language Institute (FLI) is a collaborative effort between Missouri State University, Drury University, Evangel University, Ozarks Technical Community College, and Southwest Baptist University to offer a larger array of foreign language courses to their respective students as well as the Ozarks community.

Summer Language Camp for Kids in Grades K-12
The FLI is excited to offer mini camps in Chinese and Spanish for area children this summer. Children entering kindergarton through 5th grade will attend ten 2-hour sessions to learn the basics of their chosen language, including how to pronounce sounds, write simple words, and ask and answer basic questions. Children entering grades 6 through 12 will attend ten 2-hour sessions to gain basic conversational proficiency. Both levels are suited for new learners or a great way to build upon and retain prior knowledge. Download our flyer for more information.
