Regular Course Schedule ( Summer 3 weeks)

    The Regular Course consists of 15 levels and 2 pre-levels called A and B; each level is 30 hours of tuition. A graduate of level 15 is considered to have skills equivalent to an upper intermediate speaker. Instruction is based on "the communicative approach" to language learning: a natural approach, which emphasizes speaking and listening skills.
    There are 7 six week terms each year - see the schedule below. Students are gateway tested at levels 4, 8 and 12; there is a graduation test after level 15. If a student fails a test they can continue at a lower level for one term and take the test again. Each term students are graded by their teacher as being AA = above average, A = average or BA = below average.

Students may study either 2 days each week or 4 days each week as shown below:
