By taking a General English course with EC Santa Monica, you are committing to a programme of 20 classes per week (15 hours total). You will be assigned to a group that represents your level of English, and you can expect to give equal attention to all four pillars of language learning: Speaking, Writing, Listening and Reading.
Get ready to make plenty of new connections, as EC’s classes are attended mainly by international students, who are usually looking for some new friends in Santa Monica. This is a city full of trendy areas and neighbourhoods to get involved in whenever you're not studying!
