English Language Level System
VEC courses are carefully planned and administered to eliminate
unnecessary repetition. We usually have 45 to 50 classes, divided into 15 levels.
When you start at VEC, you will be given an oral and written exam.
Separate Levels for
Grammar and Communication
Based on your exam results, you will be placed in one level for grammar
classes, and perhaps a different level for your communication classes. We know that each student has unique language skills and needs. Our system assesses your written and oral abilities, so you are placed in the correct level for each skill. This helps you to learn quickly.
