Description: The University of West Florida Intensive English Program is for all students who want to learn English. Our primary focus is academic English, but all serious students of English are welcome. We offer two seven-week sessions in both fall and spring and two six-week sessions in the summer term. Students may start at the beginning of each session.

The IEP is designed to help non-native speakers develop skill for personal, academic, and professional purposes. All of our teachers have experience in teaching English to speakers of other languages. The program helps students improve the listening, speaking, reading, grammar, writing, and vocabulary to study in an American university. It also includes some specific skills for the TOEFL.

Instruction is on 4 levels, and students are given a placement test. Class size averages 10.
