Key Language Skills: Our English courses cover all essential language skills such as: listening, speaking, reading, writing, pronunciation, and grammar. You will learn to speak with clarity, listen carefully, and gain the writing competencies necessary to complete your academic assignments with ease and accuracy.
Skills Enhancement Classes: ELS Centers offer Skills Enhancement Classes dedicated to subjects such as American Idioms, American Film, Current Events, and American Culture – enabling you to not only learn the English language, but to become part of the conversation and acquire the academic skills to succeed in higher education. Skill Enhancement Classes encompass two hours per day. In Levels 101-103, students work on Beginning Conversation and another skill area. In Levels 104-106, students focus on academic reading, writing, listening, or speaking skills. Starting in Levels 107-112, students work on academic skills such as reading, writing, listening, speaking, presentations, and note-taking.
Applied Learning: Students practice conversation and speaking skills using practical, real-world English. They learn to write with accuracy and effectiveness, develop strategic listening skills and improve their use of grammar. In the United States, Contact America! allows you to meet with native English-speakers, practice conversing while using real-world English, and listen to guest lecturers.
Key University Success Skills: To succeed in a US college or university, you will need more than just basic English language skills. Our program focuses on teaching you critical thinking, how to deliver presentations, public speaking, note-taking, academic research, and more. There are also more than 600 universities, colleges and career schools accept completion of an advanced ELS level as meeting the English language requirement for admission.

The teachers were so nice, i love them, what i didn’t like, was having no native teacher in one session, because i needed to learn the native pronunciation and sometimes was difficult to understand. for me the location was good if you live in down town, theres a lot of museums, and stores near, What I didn't like so much was that the center was in Minneapolis and not on the St. Paul campus, because I felt that on the campus where I studied there weren't as many people circulating, or university activities, I felt that it could have been easier to make friends If the center was in St Paul, then every day I would take the shalldle bus to go to the other campus, and do activities there. What I really liked was the variety of university clubs that one could participate in, for that reason I was able to make friends, it was incredible, I learned a lot from native people, and I was able to live an American university experience, they showed me a lot of the culture was incredible. I love the St. paul campus, was so beautiful, with purple every where!
I really enjoyed some activities of els, i love to make cookies, s’mores, halloween activities and celebrated birthday every month.
It was all very fun, the university is very nice, you have many places where you can study quietly, the gym is very well equipped, the teachers I had were a great support, very well prepared, with many tips that helped me feel, that in In a very short time my English took giant steps. super recommended the course at UST.

Both the classes and the teachers were organised in a good way, which allowed me to improve and learn a lot. Also, it was very easy to get to the University, due to the shuttle buses available for students. Finally, the opportunity to use the facilities of the university made this experience better because I was able to play tennis and have fun with my friends.

Non possiamo richiedere visti a nome e per gli studenti. Comunque, la scuola può fornirti la documentazione completa che ti serve per fare domanda di visto.
Se sei uno studente a tempo pieno (più di 18 ore a settimana) negli Stati Uniti, riceverai il modulo I-20 che ti serve per presentarlo all'Ambasciata degli Stati Uniti assieme alla tua domanda di visto per studenti F-1. Il modello I-20 ha un codice di tracciamento SEVIS. Gli studenti che vorrebbero fare domanda di visto devono pagare la tariffa SEVIS online prima di recarsi dall'ambasciata o consolato per il colloquio del visto.
Il tuo I-20 sarà inviato al tuo indirizzo postale con posta ordinaria a carico del mittente. Se desideri ricevere i tuoi documenti con posta celere, ti sarà addebitato $110 quando ti registri.
Si fa presente che la legge degli Stati Uniti considera il modulo I-20 valido solo per studenti che seguono corsi di Inglese a tempo pieno. Perciò non è permesso con un visto F-1 per studenti avere corsi con meno di 18 ore a settimana. Se sei uno studente part-time (meno di 18 ore) ti serve un visto da visitatore (B1/B2) procurato da te.
