Period One introduces the unit topic of the morning while focusing on a communicative approach to the lesson. A combination of direct and indirect teaching methods is used to achieve grammar objectives appropriate to the level, incorporating listening, speaking, pronunciation, and writing skills. A textbook is distributed at all levels to be used in both morning classes. Homework is assigned daily. Period Two integrates and builds on the same unit topic introduced in the first period through intense work on grammar, speaking, listening, reading and writing skills. Lessons revolve around practical situations geared at teaching the student real world skills; functional topics are chosen according to the level. Homework is assigned at the instructor’s discretion. Periods Three & Four focus on fluency practice as well as specific areas of language study, such as pronunciation, idiomatic expressions, vocabulary development, etc. Other electives are: Modular English for Business, TOEFL/Academic Skills Preparation, or TOEIC Preparation.

A computer room with full access to the Internet. An excellent homestay program.
TEACHERS: All teachers are experienced, well-qualified and friendly!
All teachers are native English speakers and have BA degrees or equivalent training/experience (minimum). They are familiar with the materials on the syllabus and ways to assist individuals so they can progress at their best rate. They have been trained to select the best grammar and fluency practices, listening, videos, web sites, recent magazines and newspapers for maximum benefit for the student.
HOMESTAY: Homestay families and individuals are selected for their positive, supportive attitude and for the cleanliness and convenience of their home. They enjoy making students feel like a part of the family. ADDITIONAL ENROLLMENT INFORMATION:
Courses start every Monday unless Monday is a holiday, then courses start on the Tuesday following. Full payment is due before the course start date. If accommodation is being booked through LSI, then full payment for the accommodation booking is due before the homestay / hotel details can be released. No I-20 is transferred for Afternoon classes only. LSI needs a minimum two-week notice prior to the course start date if you require homestay accommodation and a minimum one-week notice for Residence Hotel accommodation. During the summer we need at least three weeks notice prior to your start date for Homestay and at least a two-week notice for Residence Hotel accommodation. Please, note that hotels are based on availability.
I-20 (immigration document) INFORMATION:
Financial Certification is needed to issue an I-20. This is a bank statement stating that you or your family has the necessary funds to provide for your stay while in the United States. If the bank statement is not from your bank account, we will need a letter or affidavit of support from the person whose bank statement is given. The bank statement must have enough funds for the course and living expenses. Living expenses are calculated at $250.00 per week. This amount is equal to the LSI homestay program cost per week and is used as an estimate for all students even if accommodation is not provided by LSI. There must be at least $500.00 per week of enrollment shown on the bank statement.
TRANSFER STUDENTS:
Before a transfer form is sent to your current school and your I-20 is issued, in addition to the bank statement, LSI must receive the $120.00 enrollment fee and full payment for course and accommodation (unless no accommodation was booked). Once this amount has been received, a transfer form will be sent to your current school. I-20s are then transferred from the other school to LSI if you register for at least 4 weeks of course and as long as you have been maintaining your status with ICE. You must attend LSI within 15 days of your transfer date. Please provide the name and fax number of your current school.
Sincerely,
