LEI offers a unique, natural and conversational approach to language learning for a variety of students ranging from the traveler to the corporate executive. Courses are customized and personalized according to the needs of the students. Quality instruction, hands-on student participation, and a deep sense of caring on the part of the entire staff has become the school’s trademark.

Language Exchange International prides itself on its small class size.  We provide individualized attention to our students in seven levels of study: beginning (levels 1 & 2), intermediate (levels 3 & 4), advanced (levels 5 & 6), and post advanced (level 7) . There is a maximum of only 12 students per class with an average of 8-10.
A placement test is administered to all incoming students to determine their level of English proficiency in four skills (listening, speaking, reading and writing). The exam consists of multiple-choice questions, writing samples and an oral interview. It is administered at the school every Monday at 9:00.  Afterwards, the Testing Coordinator assesses scores and places students in their appropriate class levels. The curriculum is organized into modules allowing students to advance to the next level of proficiency upon acquiring the necessary skills. Tape recorders, computer facilities, CD-ROMs and microphones are available for our students, who are welcome to study at the school after classes at no extra charge.

The minimum age to study at LEI is 16 years, except during the winter and summer school breaks when we accept students between the ages of 12 and 15.

With the exception of our TOEFL Prep course, which has a specific start
date, courses begin every Monday.
