Participants:

Full-Time Intensive English Program. The Program curriculum consists of three proficiency levels: basic, intermediate, and advanced. In any given session, the appropriate courses will be offered for the proficiency levels represented in the enrollment. Classes are limited in number of students. As a general rule, the lower the proficiency level, the lower the number of students per class. Classes meet 4 periods each day, Monday through Friday. Each student has classes with emphasis on the following (see weekly schedule listed below): English Structure (Grammar), Writing/Composition (Rhetoric), Reading and Vocabulary, Listening and Conversation.

Students also have elective classes. Available electives vary from term to term; recent offerings have included photography, Internet English, American movies, music, and art.
