School Introduction

ELS/St. Louis is newly located on the beautiful campus of the University of Missouri-St. Louis (UMSL), just 6.4 kilometers from the airport. St. Louis is a friendly Midwestern city of 2.5 million people with a low cost of living. St. Louis is well known for its world-class sports teams, the Gateway Arch, Anheuser Busch Brewery, various jazz nightclubs, and other cultural attractions.

ESL Program Introduction

ELS Language Centers students may choose either an Intensive English Program or Semi-Intensive English Program offering 12 levels of instruction (from Beginners to highly Advanced "Masters" levels). The Intensive Program of 30 lesson hours per week is the faster way to meet your study goals - whether personal, professional, or university-specific. The Semi-Intensive Program of 20 lesson hours per week meets these goals at a different pace and allows for more time in the afternoon for exploration and leisure. Both programs include English Structure & Speaking Practice (with grammar) and Reading & Writing and use the communicative method of in-class instruction. Both also include an Individualized Learning Plan through new state-of-the-art Language Technology centers.

The Intensive English Program afternoon classes include Skills Enhancement "electives", which vary according to student interest. Sample Skills Enhancement classes may include TOEFL Preparation, Business English, Pronunciation, American Idioms, Contact America or other classes.
