We Go Beyond English

PHILINTER’s differentiation comes from how happy and satisfied our students are.

Our ESL courses operate in two ways.

Spartan Program

The academic schedule is tight, and evening programs must be attended
even after school.

Intensive ESL

Semi-Spartan Program

Requires minimal regulations for a studying atmosphere.

General ESL
Intensive Power Speaking
Light ESL

INTENSIVE ESL

This program is designed for students seeking a comprehensive, accelerated mastery of the English language, with a strong focus on Spoken Production. Classes will be tailored to each student’s needs through personalized consultations and delivered using a challenging, non-traditional approach.

CURRICULUM FEATURES

  • 9-hour Daily Intensive Program:
    Quickly improves students’ English level in a short period through one-on-one and small group classes.
    In addition, academic management and the prohibition of going out during the week create an environment in which students focus solely on their studies. This course operates in a SPARTAN SYSTEM with strict standards for attendance, test attendance, and class attitude.

  • Five hours of one-on-one classes are provided each day, which are especially helpful for improving students’ speaking skills.
    Strict monitoring and teacher consultation are provided to consistently evaluate students’ class performance with immediate feedback.

  • Evening Study:
    Special lectures, consultations, and self-study are available during the 2-hour review period from Monday to Thursday, 19:00-21:00.
COURSE DURATION
  • 1 – 24 weeks
  • If you plan to study business or take test preparation courses like IELTS or TOEIC in the future, we recommend studying this Intensive ESL course for about 8 to 12 weeks.

EXAMS

Placement Test

Every Monday. The initial consultation is given right after the exam, followed by school orientation in the afternoon. Regular classes begin on Tuesday morning; however, for short-term classes of 1-2 weeks, classes start on Monday afternoon.


Weekly Test

The weekly test covers the following areas: (1) Grammar for Speaking, (2) Pattern English, (3) Usage of Verbs, and (4) Essential Vocabulary. Tests are conducted once a week in these four areas, starting at 5 PM on Wednesday and lasting 20 minutes. The degree of difficulty varies across three levels: Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced. Participation in the weekly test is mandatory for Intensive ESL.


Progress Test

Once a month every Friday to assess the monthly progress. Short-term students (those enrolled for less than 1 month) may not take the test. Students within 2 weeks of admission or 2 weeks before graduation can take regular classes without participating in the test.

PHILINTER LANGUAGE LEVEL

MY BUDDY TEACHER!
WARM SUPPORT FOR OUR PHILINTER LIFE!

In 2005, PHILINTER ACADEMY introduced the BUDDY TEACHER SYSTEM, which was the first of its kind among ESL language schools. The buddy teacher was introduced to support the students’ safe stay and quick adaptation to life abroad amid the unstable social infrastructure of that time.

The BUDDY TEACHER system has been highly appreciated by the students and many schools in the Philippines are interested in learning it.

Now, PHILINTER’s BUDDY TEACHER system is being upgraded to the next level, with a focus on:

  • Managing students’ academic achievements
  • Ensuring the satisfaction of all teachers,
  • and Supporting students’ adaptation to their study abroad life

You chose PHILINTER because you wanted to benefit from a more advanced education program. Therefore, your BUDDY TEACHER will support you throughout your studies, helping you achieve your academic goals and grades.

What is ESL Evening Study?

Recognizing the crucial role of effective study habits and comprehensive after-class support in determining language proficiency success, Philinter offers the ESL Evening Study as an integral component of its Intensive ESL Curriculum.

What is IPS?

Intensive Power Speaking (IPS) is a specialized and effective program designed to enhance students’ English-speaking proficiency through a comprehensive focus on both fluency and accuracy.


What makes it different?

Focus on Speaking Skills Develop overall language proficiency, including fluency, grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation based on CEFR levels.
Expert Instructors Engage in conversation classes with skilled and trained instructors who have excellent pronunciation.


How is the IPS course managed and operated?
Our approach involves a task-oriented curriculum that emphasizes both accuracy and fluency.

FAQ

WHAT TEXTBOOKS DO PHILINTER USE?

We maintain a regularly updated list of textbooks for the following courses:

  • ESL (Adult)

  • ESL (Junior, 12-15 yrs.)

  • ESL (Primary, 7-11 yrs.)

  • IELTS

  • TOEIC

  • Business

  • TOEFL

  • Cambridge

Please note that textbooks for certain courses such as IELTS, Business, and Cambridge are only accessible through our PARTNER AGENT. However, the list of textbooks for other courses is open to all.

IS IT POSSIBLE TO CHOOSE 2 COURSES?

Absolutely! You have the option to choose multiple courses, including 2 or 3 courses.

However, we recommend consulting with us to determine the recommended order of courses and the ideal duration of study based on your individual needs.

HOW FAST CAN I IMPROVE MY SCORE IF I ENROLL IN THE TOEIC COURSE?

The rate at which you can improve your TOEIC score varies depending on your current level of English proficiency. Here’s an estimate of score improvement based on different starting levels:

  • If your English level is below 450 in TOEIC, you can anticipate an improvement of approximately 150-200 points per 4 weeks.

  • If your English level is below 600 in TOEIC, you can expect to improve your score by 100 to 150 points per 4 weeks.

  • For those with a score of 750 points and above, the rate of score improvement may be reduced.

On average, beginners or those with English proficiency below 450 can achieve a TOEIC score of 850 within approximately 12 weeks of dedicated study and practice.

HOW LONG IS THE STUDY PERIOD FROM IELTS 5.5 TO IELTS 7.0?

The study period to improve from IELTS 5.5 to IELTS 7.0 typically takes around 24 weeks when taking the IELTS Intensive course.
Here is the breakdown:

  • First 12 weeks to improve from 5.5 to 6.5

  • Then even another 12 weeks to improve from 6.5 to 7.0.

However, if you opt to choose the IELTS Score Guarantee, the total study duration can be reduced to 16 – 20 weeks.

For more information on academic progress and detailed course options, please consult with us.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF IELTS SCORE GUARANTEE?

The IELTS Score Guarantee Course at PHILINTER is designed to facilitate the achievement of the maximum score in a short timeframe.

Typically, it takes 24 to 32 weeks of learning for an English beginner to attain an IELTS score of 6.5. However, with our IELTS Score Guarantee Course, this score can be achieved in 24 weeks or even less.

PHILINTER’s IELTS SCORE GUARANTEE is designed to help students reach their target score quickly and effectively. In the event that the guaranteed score is not attained, free tuition fee for a specific number of weeks after the study period will be offered.

Please note that cooperation and consent for the school’s academic management are required to ensure students can fully benefit from our program.
