About Program
RP English or General English is a course teaching communication skills that will see students go from beginner to advanced competency by completing our three proficiency levels (Elementary, Intermediate, and Advanced). Students will work on soft skills and specific language development tasks that focus on socio-linguistic competency so that they can immediately apply what they learn in real-world situations such as work, academics, and travel.
Daily lessons are goal and achievement-driven and work on highlighting the four skills of listening, speaking, reading, and writing.
