Ashbourne offers a plethora of language subjects, including French, Spanish, German, Latin, Japanese and Italian. Students are taught in intimate class sizes in a friendly and informal way, leading to a greater allowance of individual attention than provided in other schools. The benefits of the college's focus on personal attention in language classes are immense, as tutors can concentrate on the precise areas in which a student may be struggling. Among the tutors in the department are Odette Hudson, who teaches French and is Ashbourne's most longstanding tutor; Louise Forster, who teaches German; Dr Luca Paci, who teaches Italian and Alberto Lado Rey, who teaches Spanish. Ashbourne also offers Arabic, Russian and Chinese as examination-only subjects.
