Overview

A Kaplan Semi-Intensive English course is a semi-intensive programme that allows you to balance classroom tuition with structured study and free-time activities. You will improve your English language ability at a speed you feel comfortable with while having time to enjoy your destination.

This course is available at all levels from Elementary to Advanced and you will be placed in a class that is suitable for your level. The course focuses on the four main aspects of language: reading, writing, listening and speaking. You’ll also learn vocabulary and grammar, and how to speak in formal and informal discussions and strategies.

But don’t forget – at Kaplan, exploration and adventure are part of the learning process, so you’ll still have opportunities to practise your skills in the real world and enjoy your destination at the same time.

HOW MUCH PROGRESS CAN YOU MAKE?

At the start of your course, we’ll assess your English proficiency using KITE, our highly
accurate, adaptive testing system. Understanding your needs allows us to place you in the
correct class level and fine-tune your learning experience. We’ll continue to measure your
progress with level tests every 5 weeks.
