Ascend’s English as a Global Language (EGL) program is a graded programme which aims to build up our students’ level of competency and confidence in the English language in a gradual and structured way so that they can live and study effectively in an English speaking environment. Our commitment to academic excellence at Ascend is reflected in our adoption of the Council of Europe’s Common European Framework (CEF) of reference (2001) for language teaching and assessment. The aim of the CEF is to provide a common international base for defining and measuring levels of language proficiency.

Our EGL program at Ascend consists of 7 language levels which are mapped directly onto the Common European Framework as shown in the table below. The table also compares the language level at Ascend and the IELTS (International English Language Testing System) and the TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language). Our students at Ascend are expected to reach an IELTS score of 6.5 or a TOEFL IBT score of 80 to progress on to diploma and degree programmes in Singapore or overseas.

2) Full time and Part time IELTS Courses:
Students who are preparing to go onto a degree programme at a Singapore university; or continue their studies in Singapore or an overseas university where English is the medium of instruction, can chose from one or two of the exam preparation courses required for entry into the degree programmes in Singapore: IELTS. Students enrolled on the Ascend Education Centre University Preparation (UP) programme will study three hours a day for six months to prepare themselves for entrance onto degree programmes.

Student Testimonial:
"I am enjoying learning the correct language sequences and a wider variety of word choice. I also enjoy the pace of the lesson and no-judgment when I make a mistake. What I find different about Language Works is the one on one class environment that is aimed at your level of learning needs. I am from China and I have found it very challenging to live in Singapore. This is really helping me to feel more confident in this environment."

"I have only come to Singapore to study for a mere 7 months. As the only son, I did not have any interest in studying and failed to go to university. My parents then decided to send me to SCI to learn English.

I was immediately influenced by the keen learning attitude of the students in SCI. The teachers also inculcated moral values to us, making us feel the passion for learning."
