General English Courses - EC - San Francisco

Are you looking to improve your English skills; then we recommend you try one of our Standard or Intensive English courses. These courses are available to students of all skill levels, from beginners to advance. Our courses emphasise the four main language skills of reading, writing, speaking, and listening. Our courses will further develop your spoken English, listening and reading skills, grammar as well as the oral and written use of English in everyday situations. In addition, to the course materials, other learning materials such as newspaper clippings (from U.S. newspapers), videos, etc… are used.

The Standard English course consists of 20 lessons, consisting of 50 minutes, per week (generally from 09:00 to 13:00). The Standard English course is perfect if you wish to combine your English course with your vacation. However, if you wish to achieve more intense results we recommend our Intensive English course with 28 lessons, consisting of 50 minutes, per week (generally from 09:00 to 15:30).

Our various English courses can provide participants with their desired learning experience. Our courses start every Monday. For participants with no prior knowledge, only our Intensive English course is offered and will start on specific dates (approximately every 8 weeks). Our courses have a maximum of 12 participants and an average of around 10 participants.

Additional tuition (optional)

If you are on a limited schedule or would prefer a more individual experience private lessons are available. The benefit of having a private lesson is that it can be tailor-made to meet your specific needs. You can choose from 5 to 10 additional lessons and can be combined with our Standard or Intensive English courses. Please note that it is less expensive to book a combination course than to add additional private lessons.
