Study at ETC for success in English

To learn English as fast and as well as possible, you need to use Western learning methods as well as the methods of your own country. It is not enough to study examination questions, do tests, learn lists of words, and use English only in the classroom. You must surround yourself with English listening to English, speaking English, reading English and writing English as much as possible. To develop your vocabulary, you need to use words in sentences, understanding how to change the form of the word to fit the sentence e.g., to possess, possessive, possessively, possession.

The many advantages of studying at ETC are that you can experience a different culture and surrounding yourself with an English environment.
