ECS level scheme
ECS level chart
General English
General English courses are designed to develop learners' total language ability, i.e, work on all skills: reading, listening, speaking and writing. Graduates of ECS courses are meant to show progress in all four skills compared to their level before signing up for an ECS course.
Conversation
Because it takes a long time to build one's competence in language and develop one's ability to use language with as much flexibility as possible, and because learners on the same course do not make the same progress, we have a series of conversation courses - with major focus on listening and speaking - to supplement and augment our general English programme.
The chart above shows our level distribution against the Common European Framework bands.
Young learners
ECS delivers special programs for young learners (between ages 7 and 15) during the summer.
Other programs
ECS also administers private courses which are designed especially to suit candidates' individual schedules.
We can plan a private course in general English, conversation or a specific business English course.
