Intensive English Program (IEP)

The Intensive English Program (IEP) is ideal for students who would like to combine the process of learning English with exploring the USA and its great Chicago culture. Classes are 18 hours a week and you can select the schedule that best meets your needs. SOLEX College offers the program in the mornings, evenings and weekends at all three of our locations. Moreover, the new session starts every month and you can enroll at any time. All our courses are 100% led by experienced American instructors!

Take classes for as long as you want - until you complete the program or feel you have achieved the language skills you wanted. Compare our prices to other reputable language schools and be pleasantly surprised!

Would you like to know more about the academic background of the program? There are 6 levels of IEP and they are as follows:

Introduction

• Level 1: Students are introduced to the English language, and the focus is on everyday use.
• Level 2: Students continue to focus on building foundations in social English, and apply what they learn to daily conversation.

Intermediate

• Level 3: Students will work on strengthening grammar and conversational skills in an academic setting through reading and writing.
• Level 4: The focus of the class shifts towards advanced academic content and vocabulary. Students will prepare for advanced English language learning with a stress on academia.

Advanced

• Level 5: Classes will begin to prepare students for higher academic pursuits and career paths. The focus is now on formal and advanced conversation.
• Level 6: Students will experience more challenging content, with a focus on advanced conversational English. Projects, including speeches and presentations, are a part of this level.
