The school’s methodology puts emphasis on the importance of communication skills, which is reflected by their small class sizes that allow individuals to converse and work together effectively in a relaxed and supportive environment.
You will take a total of 18 hours of lessons every week, which will be spread across four days of the week (Monday to Thursday) - so you’ll have three-day weekends on this programme.
Also available for B1 and B2 visa holders for 4 weeks maximum.
Classes are on the quarter system and they are 11 weeks long. Lessons take place from Monday to Friday from 9:00am - 1:30pm.

Students can add additional courses such as our University preparation course or our Business English course. Each add-on costs $640 per month plus $200 for books.
