INTERNATIONAL HOUSE PHILADELPHIA – ANNUAL REPORT 2013
LANGUAGE PROGRAMS
English (includes TOEFL)
The language programs at International House are special for several reasons: the unique conversational style of learning that really allows students to start communicating at an early level, the variety of offerings, and the affordable cost. With an interesting and thoughtful roster of foreign and English language classes, there is something for everyone. Focus is divided between speaking and listening, reading and writing. Year after year, the program sees an increase in inquiries and enrollments. IHP’s language classes are filled with students from all over the world, and are conducted by volunteer teachers. This makes classes a great place to meet people from other countries and learn about both American and foreign cultures alike. Students participate in field trips, extra-curricular activities, and have opportunities to meet with conversation partners.
