Intensive General English is built for learners who want fast, visible progress. With 20 lessons a week — four hours a day, Monday to Friday — you are immersed in English from morning to early afternoon. Every session covers a mix of speaking, listening, reading, writing, grammar, and vocabulary through communicative tasks that reflect real-life situations.
Levels follow the CEFR framework from A2 to C1. Students take a free placement test before starting and move up through end-of-level exams as their English improves. Rolling enrolment means you start any Monday — no waiting for a term to begin — and you can study anywhere from one week to a full year.
Who is this course for?
- Students on a UAE student visa who need to maximise learning within a fixed time
- Adults who want to advance a full CEFR level as quickly as possible
- Professionals on an extended career break or sabbatical
- International students preparing for university admission or an English-language career
- Anyone who thrives with daily immersion and a structured, intensive schedule
What you'll cover
Speaking & Fluency
Daily speaking tasks, role plays, presentations, and discussions designed to build real conversational confidence at pace.
Listening
Intensive listening practice using authentic audio, lectures, and native-speaker conversations across a range of accents and contexts.
Reading
Extended reading tasks with comprehension strategies for academic, professional, and everyday texts at your CEFR level.
Writing
Structured writing workshops covering essays, emails, reports, and professional correspondence — with detailed teacher feedback.
Grammar & Accuracy
Systematic grammar input and correction in communicative context, with consolidation exercises and individualised feedback.
Vocabulary Building
Topic-based vocabulary expansion using contextual learning, spaced repetition, and reading-based activities.
Our teaching approach
The Intensive course covers the same CEFR curriculum as the Semi-Intensive programme but moves at twice the pace. Four hours of structured classroom English a day means you are practising speaking, listening, reading, writing, grammar, and vocabulary every single session — not just one or two skills. Teachers integrate grammar teaching into real tasks rather than presenting rules in isolation.
Despite the pace, lessons remain communicative and student-centred. Classes average 7 students with a maximum of 12, so you get individual attention and speak English in every lesson. Weekly evaluations and end-of-level tests keep your progress visible, and your teacher adjusts focus based on your results.
