English as a Second Language:
All levels from Pre-Beginner to Advanced. ESL Instruction combines the best of traditional methods with current approaches to make learning English stimulating and effective. English courses provide a clear foundation in the structure of the language, building on an understanding of the basic grammar and vocabulary as well as patterns in the English language.

English Pronunciation & Accent Reduction:
Effective communication requires clear speech and correct pronunciation. Students learn proper pronunciation of English vowels and consonants while building a vocabulary that includes homonyms, synonyms and antonyms. Practice flowing sentence structure and learn uniquely American English accents, terminology and idioms.

English Immersion:
Everything possible is done to maintain an environment that supports classroom instruction. Consequently, an English only policy is a fundamental aspect of the school philosophy. Students learning English benefit from using English only, in and out of class.

English classes are available for every skill level in grammar, conversation and pronunciation. Students will develop English language skills for real situations with the help of ALC`s special learning system. English Grammar is taught in a communicative manner with an emphasis on using the structures orally. Communicative methodology is also used to develop English Vocabulary, Idioms and Pronunciation. Two priorities are: attendance and homework assignments.
