The intensive course offered by EF Cambridge is designed to those students who are ready to make the commitment to learn English in a reduced period of time - usually because they want to apply for a university placement, or they have an upcoming employment opportunity that uses English.
Classes take place both in the morning and the afternoon, at 32 classes per week (roughly 21 hours). The intensive course is the most popular option that the school provides, which is due to the guaranteed improvements that result from such a considerable amount of time spent on refining your language skills every week. Apart from the carefully prepared lesson plans from their experienced and qualified teachers, you will also be conversing with your peers in English for the majority of the week, which will increase your confidence greatly when it comes to your speaking skills.
Another important reason for the popularity of the intensive course is that the participants receive ten special interest classes, which are lessons specifically catered to the interests and goals of the student. According to EF’s statistics, their students enrolled on the intensive course improve at a rate between 25% to 50% faster than students on their other programmes.
This course comprised of 32 morning and afternoon lessons a week, will have you speaking and writing with confidence in the least amount of time. It also offers the maximum number of Special Interest Lessons, to ensure you successfully achieve your goals while studying abroad.
