Quality of teaching / language progress: I would recommend the general course over intensive as the intensive course only provides extra “spin” lessons which are essentially just cultural and writing classes that are honestly often not useful
Other comments The price of EF programs are not justified however they do still provide a great experience, the cost is just too high considering
