The American Explorer Program at ELS Language Centers is designed for students wishing to include some English lessons in their short stay. Students receive 15 weekly lessons of morning instruction, and will have the afternoon free to explore the surrounding area.
ELS recommends that students select a duration in 4-week increments (4 weeks, 8 weeks, 12 weeks, etc.). Durations under 4 weeks (2 or 3 weeks) and in non-4-week increments may be available if space permits. These durations require special request and must be approved by the ELS Center Director.

Teachers answered all questions from everyone. All classes were so fun. After class I went to downtown with my classmates.My host family are so kind and friendly. I had a great time there.
I am fortunate that I studied at this school .I learned with the best teachers and housing varied teaching strategies. I know an international students who have an amazing experience with ELS. Thanks for everything.
The teachers are very good because they prepared for their classes. The location is excellent because students have the chance to interact with other American students from the university.

As a general overview, I really liked the course. The first day was somewhat tedious, but was quickly adjusted in the following days, making the course become very pleasant. The teachers were extremely professional. They are very well prepared, dedicated, and really good at their jobs. The location and facilities are good. I would recommend a wireless connection. We had some difficulties when it was planned to use internet as a support in classes. About the city, I am very happy to have chose Chicago, the city is amazing and people are kind.
I had a private class, so sometimes I felt bothered. However, all of the teachers were very good; there was just one that I did not like. I had a problem with him, but it was solved quickly. The location was perfect. My host mother was perfect, too. She drove me to school every day.
Thank you for everything!
I am working at the American Center in Moscow and this English course was really important for me. I was in Chicago only 4 weeks, to tell the truth, for it was not enough. But after this trip I feel more confident while talking to Americans at my work. I think that this is a big progress. I want to say thank you for an amazing hosting family, Anne (I do not remember her last name, she lives 1716 North Natoma Avenue, Chicago, IL 60707). She is very interesting woman. She tried to help in everything, explained what I wanted to know and she cooked wonderfulyl. And she lived close to the courses, so I could even get there by foot. Among teachers I very much liked Melissa. She is a great teacher. She gave so much. She works like she really want to give us knowledge.
