(3 weeks / 8 hrs per week)

Private Lessons
Optional private lessons are available to students enrolled in CBEI programs. During private lessons students work one-on-one with an instructor in the area that is important for their business, career, or academic studies. The instructor will prepare special materials and will provide personal guidance. There are two types of Private Lessons: General English (ESL), and English for Specific Purposes (ESP).
General English (ESL)private lessons focus mainly on English used in everyday life, for tourism, social activities, or general communication in business and academic environments. The instructor prepares lessons to meet the student\'s particular needs, and engages the student in an intensive program of study.
English for Specific Purposes(ESP)private lessons are suitable for people who need to learn specialized English, such as in business, finance, science, engineering, or management. The ESP private lessons are also suitable for students preparing for specific entry examinations, such as medical, law, or engineering schools. The instructor will prepare special materials and lessons to meet the student\'s personal learning needs and also the specialized topic area of ESP studies.
