If you dream of going to another country to learn English while also having beautiful beaches and surf opportunities on your doorstep, then the General English course offered by EF’s Honolulu location might be what you’re looking for.
As the name of the course suggests, you will work on developing your English in a general sense - this is done by working on Reading, Listening, Writing, and Speaking in equal proportions, and taking vocabulary from a diverse range of contexts. Students will find it easy to apply what they learn here to academic and professional situations in the future.
The Hawaiian locals are famous for their friendliness and hospitality towards international visitors, so whenever you decide to go for a coffee or a snack around the Waikiki campus, you’ll feel at home.
Apart from the 26 weekly classes that you’ll take part in, the school also offers the chance to participate in group trips to to nearby islands – either Kauai, Maui or The Big Island – and the Polynesian Cultural Center or weekend escapes trips to Oahu.
