English Language Program

Institute of Intensive English

We have been teaching English as a second language for over 25 years. Many of our students progress onto our LCSC college programs. We have small classes, caring professional teachers, strong community interaction, and an excellent homestay program.

Our Program

We have four bands: Beginning, Intermediate, Advanced and Pre-College. Each band is two 8-week terms. After each term a competency test is given to determine graduation from each band.

See Bridge Program for more information on our Pre-College program.

Homestay

Homestay provides a unique opportunity to live with an American Family. Our students who take advantage of homestay excel in their English studies, gain cultural understanding and have a family support group. See Housing for more information.
