General English Course (A1-C1)

The General English Course covers six levels from Beginner to Advanced, ranging from A1 to C1. The Beginner level accepts students with very little exposure to English, while the Advanced level is for students with high level communicative skills.

There are several intensity options available: Classic (20 lessons / 15 hours per week), Classic Light Flexi (15 lessons / 11.25 hours per week), Semi-intensive (25 lessons / 20 hours per week), Classic Afternoon 4-Day Course (20 lessons / 15 hours per week), Super-intensive (40 lessons / 30 hours per week), and Premium (30 lessons / 25 hours per week), as well as tailored One-to-One lessons.

The course includes a placement test to assess your language level, important information and guidance before your course, an online/in person welcome induction, monthly progress assessment and discussion of progress with your teacher, weekly free classes and conversation club, social programme activities, free online Masterclass webinars and workshops, coursebook and other materials, full access to an online learning platform, a welcome bag with free goodies, discounts at various local shops and attractions, an end of course certificate, enrolment into EP Alumni higher education/university network, and assistance with application for EP partner higher education scholarships.

The General English Course duration ranges from 1 to 44 weeks depending on the programme chosen, with the exception of the Super-intensive course which runs for 1 to 12 weeks, and the IELTS Preparation course which can run for 1 to 60 weeks.

By the end of the course, you will be able to speak English more confidently and fluently, have developed your vocabulary knowledge, have a better understanding of more complex English grammatical structures, have fine-tuned your pronunciation, have improved your reading, listening and writing skills, and be able to use your new language and skills in your own real-life contexts and communicate naturally across cultures.
