English Language Level 0

Overview
English Language Level 0 is a 24 hour beginner course for students who are starting with little or no prior English. It builds the basic foundations of grammar, vocabulary, and simple conversation that students need before moving into Cycle 1 of the full English Language (3 Cycles) program.
The course is delivered in CIS’s hybrid format, in person at any CIS branch or online, and priced at 180 USD. Classes are practical and interactive, giving beginners a comfortable, structured starting point rather than dropping them straight into a full cycle.
