The key to English Immersion is...  [Read more]

Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences Programs in English as a second language (ESL) generally take place in countries where English is the dominant or official language.

In contrast, programs in English as a foreign language (EFL) generally take place in countries where English is not the official or dominant language. People participating in an EFL program are likely still in their home country and may or may not ever use English outside of the EFL classroom. This fundamental difference between the two types of programs can lead to differences in how English is taught in the classroom,...  [Read more]
