A proven method

At Englishtown, quality has always been at the heart of what we do, starting with the initial development of our unique methodology.

Our investment in quality

It took EF scientists and teachers 5 years to develop the Englishtown online learning method after years of research in EF schools around the world. We invested $50 million to develop the foundation of our online school system. Now Englishtown e-learning courses are university certified and the choice of more than 1,200 multinational companies. EF even has a research unit at Cambridge University to continuously refine our method. That’s something not a lot of schools can offer you!

The result:
A truly unique combination of teacher-led activities and interactive technology, which radically quickens the pace of learning.

Our methodology

Englishtown uses a communicative approach to teaching. This means that we encourage students to build on past experiences as well as learn from others to build new knowledge. The EFEKTA™ System builds on this powerful logic of revolving learning to help you learn ‘real’ English.

Here’s how our method works:

1- Learn

With your course, you get access to a massive range of interactive content: 1,500 hours of fun activities spread over 16 levels to be precise. Each lesson starts with a short movie shot at the EF studios in Hollywood. It allows you to experience the language in a real life situation. The interactive activities build on that initial movie and focus on building core English skills like vocabulary, grammar, pronunciation and listening comprehension. Our system tracks your progress and drives you to perfect your skills based on your performance. Clear focus that guarantees you progress faster. more »

Open 24/7, you never need to book a spot in the classroom in advance - our live online classes start at every level, every hour of the day. You can use up to 30 hours of teacher-led conversation lessons every month. more »
