MIAMI , March 30, 2024 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — SABER College is pleased to announce the launch of its English as a Second Language (ESOL) Program for April 1 , 2024 This program, designed to meet the communication needs in the community, will offer online classes and aims to provide an exceptional education through personalized instruction and support leveraged in cutting-edge technology, which will facilitate the learning of the English language in students with diverse mother tongues.

With a total of 900 hours of complete online instruction, students will acquire communication skills to function successfully in their daily lives, to join the labor market and social integration activities in their new country of residence.

The program is divided into five progressive levels, ranging from ESOL level I to level V, with emphasis on the development of listening, reading, writing, and speaking skills, as well as intercultural communication. The program is completely online (3 times a week via Zoom and two asynchronous days with teaching support), and includes practical sessions in oral communication, listening comprehension, pronunciation and debates to improve interaction skills.

SABER College has a team of highly experienced and qualified teachers, dedicated to the success of each student. Amarilis Somoza, Dean of Academic Affairs at SABER College said, “We are excited to launch our online English as a Second Language Program.

Level 4: Intermediate English proficiency:

The student can understand and use broader vocabulary and grammar in English. You can communicate effectively in work and social situations. Can read and write texts of moderate complexity in English.
