Course description

The Academic Semester/Year course focuses on language fluency as a main goal. The four major skills students will practice are reading, writing, speaking and listening. Students are active participants and learn grammar, vocabulary and common expressions by working and speaking with their classmates. The additional 6 lessons in this course allow students extra time to learn and practice all of their newly learned skills.
Please note that the first day is mainly focused on pre-test and orientation
This is the timetable of the student:
08:30 - Student arrival and check-in
09:00 - Placement test and interviews
11:00 - Welcome breakfast and orientation with various EC staff members
12:00 - Welcome tour of school neighbourhood

Students taking courses with 20 or 24 or 26 lessons per week will not have class on the first day due to orientation, while those taking courses with 30 lessons per week will have two classes in the afternoon on the first day after orientation.

Course topics

Students learn through context and real situations that help them to learn in a natural way. Teachers supply new topics daily, and utilize textbooks, authentic materials and resources, including newspapers, videos and the internet, to show and teach English in an everyday context.

"Ist was an amazing experions!"

Catalina Lüschow, student from Germany

The location from the school was perfekt, next to you was the Quincy Market. The teacher are very nice, they teach very good so you can understand all. My classes were so nice, i have two new friends from the school. I didn't do any of the school activities because I wanted to spend time with my family, but they sounded really good!

"Amazing, the level of the teachers and the location are really good"

stella vanegas, student from Colombia

In my opinion, this School has everything to make you feel satisfied and happy. Excellent teachers, and also the location and the facilities are great.

The housing its ok but I think could improve some aspects as: the cleaning, specially in the fridge, the towels to clean and to dry the stuff at the kitchen. The pans some of them are really old. Also I think that could exist a soap for washing plates and for washing clothes that can be used for every body. Doesn’t make sense to buy a bottle or can of detergent for 2 or 3 weeks. Could be great to replace the carpet in the bathroom and the curtain, and check the place to put the shampoo because it is rusty.

People at the front desk are friendly and open to attend your questions.

And the administrative staff is also very interested in addressing your needs, so they set up your schedule in the best way, for letting you reach your goals.

"Great Teachers at EC Boston"

Hedwig Braschler, student from Switzerland

I enjoyed my advanced Business English course at EC Boston very much. The teachers are really great at EC Boston. The classes were instructive and entertaining at the same time. Boston is a lovely city and EC is located in the center of downtown near the seaside.

"EC Boston is a great place to increase a level of English, to participate in social activities and have a fun."

Yashar Khudiyev, student from Azerbaijan

Classes are great. Especially the teaching professionalism of Caitlin, Eddie, Brett, also pronunciation and slang teachers. The location of the EC school is very easy to reach by train. That helps a lot. The activities are also interesting, however I would prefer to make them more out of charge, as you know for some of them students have to pay. I am not satisfied with the housing conditions. The rooms are in poor condition, kitchen stuff is not completed fully. Despite of our requests nobody made our cable TV work till now... But generally all seems OK for now.

"Wonderful opportunity to improve language skills, to meet people from all over the world and to discover American way of life"

Khodakova Valentina, student from Russia

I did like the classes a lot and I had two great teachers (Timothy and David). The location was great, close to the T and to the downtown. I know that the school moved to a new building this year and I have heard from students that it is good as well. I didn't have a chance to participate in many activities but I know people enjoyed going to the Blue Man Group show, karaoke, football games, etc. As for the housing, my homestay family was ok, the food was good, and they were always ready to talk to us. I was a little disappointed with my room (it was a single, but the girl who lived in the room next to mine had a different schedule and had to walk through my room in the mornings. As I'm a light sleeper, I was always woken up as well). The location wasn't the best; they live in Dorchester and it wasn't always easy to get back from Downtown, especially at night. But I know that a lot of the homestay families live kind of far from the city center. In general, everything was good and I had a great time. Thank you for your assistance.

"Absolutely fantastic, I would return if I could, without any doubt."

Uxue, student from Spain

The classes were enjoyable, except for when we did readings. The teachers were very nice, above all Timothy; he changed the way I used to understand the language, I am very glad he was my teacher. The location, facilities, and activities were perfect. The atmosphere inside the academy was warm, friendly, and close. I learned a lot and I would really recommend it!!!!

Visa support

We cannot apply for visas on behalf of students. However, the school can supply you with all the documentation you need to support your visa application.

If you are studying full time in the United States for more than 18 hours per week, you will receive an I-20 that you need to submit to the US embassy along with your F-1 student visa application. The I-20 has a SEVIS tracking number on it. Students who wish to apply for a student visa must pay the SEVIS fee online before going to the US embassy or consulate for their visa interview.

Your I-20 will be sent to your home address by regular mail at no charge to you. If you wish to receive your paperwork by express mail, you will be charged $80 when you register.

Please note that United States law states that an I-20 can only be issued to students who intend to pursue full-time English language studies. United States law does not permit students to study part-time with an F-1 Student Visa. If you are studying for less than 18 hours per week, you have to apply for a Visitor Visa (B1/B2) on your own.

Flights and airport transfer

The closest airport to the school is Boston Logan Airport (BOS).

The school offers airport pickup services. If you wish to be picked up, just give us your flight details and arrival date. The price of a one-way airport transfer from Boston Logan Airport is $115. You must book your airport transfer in advance when you register.

Please note that we do not book flights for our students. If you are researching airfare costs, we recommend using Kayak.com, a search engine that lets you compare flight options from your home country to Boston based on your budget, schedule and preferences.

Study abroad worry-free with Language International's health and personal effects insurance coverage. When you book a course with us, you can opt to purchase an international insurance plan that covers not only your health care cost but also loss of your personal belongings.
