There are many types of English courses in the United States. There are specific, general, for beginners and advanced. But they all have the same purpose.
Although they all seek to provide students with the ability to communicate in English, the differences are in the nuances.
In this article we will review the types of English courses in the United States that you can take at our institution: Lingua Language Center.

It’s 16 hours a week, which leaves time for other types of plans.

What if the student is really busy with his or her work or academic training? In that case, nothing will be better than taking a part-time English course.
There are 12 hours of classes that can be taken in Flort Lauderdale, Weston, Orlando and Doral.
All-inclusive English package
Then there is the other extreme: those who want to come to the United States solely and exclusively to study English while living guided experiences that allow them to practice it continuously.
For those cases, there is an all-inclusive English package. And by all-inclusive we mean English classes, short trips, food, transportation, where to stay and even insurance.
This is a course designed primarily for groups of students with similar characteristics, such as classmates from the same school or young people who belong to the same cultural or religious association.
