Intensive English Programs
UCEDA INTERNATIONAL courses are offered as Intensive English Programs in order to help students obtain a firm mastery of the language in a time frame that may be condensed according to individual needs. Intensive English Programs (IEP) consist of 18 instructional hours per week. Premium and Compressed IEP options are also available, which can include up to 20 hours per week.
For your convenience, each instructional site offers multiple schedules in the mornings and evenings. Most classes meet 5 days per week (MON-FRI), although some locations may also offer 4-day classes. Workshop classes, lasting only one hour each, are also held 3 days per week by an instructor who tailors the material to the individual needs of students in attendance.

TOEFL Preparation
When you prepare for the TOEFL with the help of experienced instructors at UCEDA, we can help you maximize your score in the four key learning sections:
Reading
Listening
Speaking
Writing
In addition to reviewing and refining your language skills in the above areas, UCEDA’s TOEFL Preparation course will also familiarize you with the test’s structure, and prepare you with valuable test-taking strategies and practice. UCEDA INTERNATIONAL’s TOEFL instructors have the most up-to-date information available on the TOEFL internet-based test (iBT), and provide comprehensive preparation activities and materials including:
Diagnostic Pre-Tests for each section of the TOEFL iBT (Reading, Listening, Speaking, Writing) measure student’s level of performance and allow students to determine specific areas of weakness.
Skills Practice for each section allows students to review and master all of the language skills that are regularly tested on the TOEFL iBT.
Test-Taking Strategies for each section provide students with clearly defined steps to maximize their performance on the test.
Exercises provide practice in both TOEFL and non-TOEFL formats.
TOEFL Post-Tests for each section measure the progress that students have made after working through the skills and strategies in the text.
Eight Mini-Tests allow students to simulate the experience of taking actual tests using shorter versions (approximately 1.5 hours each) of the test.
Two Complete Tests allow students to simulate the experience of taking actual tests using full-length versions (approximately 3.5 hours each) of the test.
Answers and Explanations for all skills practice and test items allow students to understand their errors and learn from their mistakes.
Scoring Information calculated approximate TOEFL scores based on Diagnostic Pre-Tests, Post-Tests, Mini-Tests, and Complete Tests.
Skill-Assessments help students monitor their progress in specific language skills so they can determine which skills have been mastered and which skills require further study.
Please keep in mind that the TOEFL Preparation course at UCEDA INTERNATIONAL is designed for English language learners at an Advanced level.
