General English

Yes, the school can arrange homestay accommodation for you.

You can live with a local family, which will allow you to practice English and learn about the culture. Your friendly hosts will help you get the most out of your English learning experience.

There are three-course options: Standard, Semi-Intensive, and Intensive, each with different weekly lesson hours. These options vary based on how much time you need to study each week.

• The Standard course offers 15 hours per week, allowing you to improve your English while still having free time for other activities.
• The Semi-Intensive course provides 18 hours per week, helping you progress faster while still offering some free time.
• The Intensive course has 21 hours per week, giving you more classroom hours for faster progress, but also requires more study time.

When choosing a course, consider how quickly you want to improve, how much free time you want, how much time you can comfortably spend on studying, and your future goals.

If you're unsure, you can start with the Standard course and move to a more intensive option later.

You can start your course at any time during the year.

Courses start on Mondays. If Monday is a public holiday, your course will start on Tuesday instead.

You can study for as long as you want, from one week to a year, depending on your goals and your current level of English.

It usually takes around 10 to 12 weeks to move from one level to the next.

Remember, 10 to 12 weeks is just an average. Each student learns at their own speed, so the time it takes to progress can be different for everyone.

On your first day at school, you will take a full English-level assessment that tests your speaking, listening, reading, and writing skills.

Before you arrive, you can also check your level by completing an online English test.

There are six levels of English:

1. Beginner: You know little or no English.
   
   
2. Elementary: You can understand and use basic phrases.
   
   
3. Pre-Intermediate: You can communicate in simple situations and understand familiar topics.
   
   
4. Intermediate: You can have everyday conversations and understand more complex language.
   
   
5. Upper-Intermediate: You can speak confidently about a wide range of topics.
   
   
6. Advanced: You can speak English fluently and accurately in most situations.

We regularly check your progress and will move you to a higher level as you improve.

If you want to change your level, just speak to your teacher or the academic manager, and they will help you.

Your progress is monitored through weekly tests to check how you're improving your English skills.

You will also have regular one-to-one meetings with your teacher who will discuss your progress with you.
