English Language Center

EXPERIENCE ENGLISH LANGUAGE SCHOOL L.A. INSIDE THE CLASSROOM

At the English Language Center, we are dedicated to providing English programs of the highest quality to our international students including General English, Test Preparation (Cambridge, IELTS and TOEFL), Individual Business English, English Plus, 50+, Intensive Individual instruction, individual lessons and more. International students who study English at ELC Los Angeles will enjoy English language instruction from native speakers of American English, all of whom hold university degrees and have specialized training in Teaching English as a Second Language. Careful placement and course selection ensure that students will learn English in an environment that is best for them to improve their skills. So ELC Los Angeles is able to provide a high standard of education.

EXPERIENCE ENGLISH LANGUAGE CENTER BEYOND THE CLASSROOM

At the English Language Center, we know that our international students learn both in the classroom as well as outside of the classroom; therefore, we encourage full immersion through our accommodation and activities offerings. ELC offers many housing options including living with an American host family, sharing an apartment with classmates, enjoying the convenience of living in a nearby hotel or experiencing American university life in a campus dormitory. Our activities program in Los Angeles is filled with outdoor exploration activities. Southern California’s Mediterranean climate draws students outdoors all year round—for swimming, surfing, sunbathing, golfing, boating, tennis, and dining. Public transportation makes it all available to ELC students. Afternoon activities include visits to downtown Los Angeles, Hollywood, Beverly Hills, seeing the stars at a major movie premiere, and visiting UCLA. Weekend excursions offer students the opportunity to go to baseball games at Dodger Stadium and popular places such as Disneyland, Magic Mountain, and Universal Studios. On weekend trips each student can visit San Francisco, San Diego, the Grand Canyon, Las Vegas, and other exciting attractions.
