The General English course from CCEL is for those students who want to improve their English language skills across the board, ranging from grammar to conversation, and everything in between. In your 23 weekly lessons, you will work on all the traditional pillars of second language study, and in this way develop all of your areas of knowledge in tandem.
One of the most attractive features of this course is that participants will be subject to continual progress monitoring, and this means that as the weeks or months go by, you may be asked if you would like to change to a more advanced group to reflect the improvements that you will make over this period of time.
