Study English for academic and professional success
English Language Studies offers a range of courses and program options designed to give you the skills and confidence you need to succeed in academic and professional environments where English is the main language of communication.
We have classes from intermediate to pre-university levels, and you can study full-time or part-time in the fall, winter, and summer semesters. The ELS Program is organized around four levels of English language ability, with proficiency certificates and courses in the areas of interactive communications, reading, and writing. Elective courses are offered across proficiency levels in the areas of pronunciation, vocabulary, and Business English.
If you want to improve your English to pursue university studies or to get ahead in your profession, UFV’s English Language Studies courses and program options are designed for you.
