A GEOS Intensive English class features a comprehensive curriculum with a focus on oral communication - speaking and listening. Well trained and highly qualified instructors help students improve their conversation skills through a variety of creative activities. There are six different levels of study, from beginner through advanced. A placement test helps us find the best class level for each student. At the end of each four-week session, each student will receive a written evaluation and have a one-on-one with one of their teachers. This is how we help you monitor your progress. After each three month semester, students receive a report card, and students receive a GEOS certificate when they finish their course.
Our Intensive English Classes meet five days per week, for a total of 24 lessons(20 hours) each week. Students work with two different teachers
(one for the morning class and one for the afternoon class) and the most up-to-date, effective textbooks and materials available.
